Public Dispute Snowboard | 2026

Argue all you want, but the 2026 Dispute rules the resort. This directional twin designed by Ben Bilodeau features our Alert Camber profile, and is loaded with tech. Inlaid Armid and Carbon Stringers create a lightweight, powerful core that offers a responsive ride. Urethane sidewalls offer extra impact support, and the Sintered base will have you waiting for everyone else to catch up. There's no debate here, the Dispute is the most versatile board in our lineup.

Features

• Biax Glass - All PUBLIC Snowboards are made using Biax fiberglass. Biax fiberglass creates a consistent and smooth flexing snowboard tip to tail while allowing the board to stay nimble and predictable.
• Carbon Stringers - A 20mm wide carbon fiber stringer running tip to tail to increase overall pop and response without increasing torsional flex to keep the board feeling lively and nimble underfoot. Carbon stringer is the most effective way to add pop without increasing weight.
• Aramid Stringers - Aramid stringers are strategically placed in a V pattern in the tip and tail for increased durability, dampening and a dose of added pop! Aramid fibers are used to make bulletproof vests so you know every board made with Aramid stringers will be more durable and hold its pop longer, season after season.
• Urethane Sidewalls - Urethane sidewalls are used in all PUBLIC boards for their superior dampening properties compared to the industry standard ABS and P-tex sidewalls. Urethane sidewalls are more durable against impact on rocks or rails to prevent your board from delaminating when you get caught slippin’ in the park or backcountry.
• Sintered Base - Rather than melting polyethylene pellets together (extrusion), sintered bases are manufactured by crushing the pellets together under high pressure. This makes a sintered base more porous for maximum wax absorption, and more abrasion-resistant. In other words it makes the board faster and more durable!
• Poplar Light Core - A premium version of our tried and true Poplar core. We’ve strategically placed super lightweight paulownia wood throughout the core to reduce weight but maintain a snappy feel. Strips of hardwood are placed underneath the bindings to reduce board breaks at the binding line and increase insert retention.
• Alert Camber - Hybrid camber profile is regular between the feet with a rise on the tip and tail.
• Flex - Medium (4/7)
