AXIS Division
Sizes Available: 128, 133, 135, 138cm
Sizes Tested: 135cm
BRAND Says:
The AXIS Division has a straighter outline in the middle and is more curved in the tips making it smooth and stable, instantly comfortable, and a blast to use. The bottom shape is less complicated than some of our more aggressive freestyle models but still provides a good grip.
The outline, flex, and bottom shape allow this board to butter through chop and still deliver when it is pushed to the next level. The Division is super comfortable to ride. Ride it for the first time, and it will feel like the best board ever.

Our Testers Say:
“I really liked this board in the choppy conditions, with medium flex and slightly tapered profile that handled the chop well without beating up my knees,” Dray Murray.
“Holds edge well, great upwind, nice pop for a beginner with comfy straps that hold well with smooth turning and solid feel,” India Stephenson.
“Super fun sporty board, a little more skatey than the Vanguard, with excellent load and pop and effortless for transitions,” Aaron Stephens.
“Looks good, feels great under foot, rides real smooth,” Michael Doucet.
TKB Says:
The Division is a great freeride board that features a flatter rocker for going upwind. With a straighter center rail and pulled tips , testers felt it handled well in choppy conditions and felt fast underfoot. The medium flex was lively and forgiving and fun for load and pop. The Axis pads and straps offers three stance width settings and five settings for adjusting duck. The Division came with the single adjustment foot straps that are incredibly easy to assemble but lack the form fitting adjustments of Axis’ quad adjustment strap, and the pads have a soft to medium density comfortable rubber-like footbed with ribs and a ridge under your toes that gives good traction.
