The Rossignol Jibfluence is a true-twin freestyle deck built on the same shape and intent as Rossignol's flagship park board the Jibsaw, just scaled and softened for lighter weight riders. New for the 2027 model year, the Jibfluence picks up the AmpTek All-Mountain camber profile, the same 50/50 rocker-to-camber split now running through much of the Rossignol freestyle line. RadCut sidecut technology and Serrated Edges round out a build that punches well above its youth-segment price point. The result is a park-first deck that doesn't fall apart when the rider takes it out of the park.

Why we like it:

RadCut sidecut is a real thing in a kids' park deck, and so are Serrated Edges 3S, the Jibfluence brings actual edge-hold technology into a price bracket where most boards skip it entirely.

Who it's for:

Confirmed-to-advanced young riders who already spend most days in the park and want a board that can keep up. Light adult park riders looking for a quick, agile jib stick will also find the Jibfluence interesting in its longest size.

Highlights:

The headline change for 2027 is the new AmpTek All-Mountain rocker-camber blend, 50% camber underfoot for pop and grip, 50% rocker at the tip and tail for catch-free landings. That is a meaningful step up from the rocker-dominant profile this board ran before. RadCut technology combines a traditional sidecut between the inserts with reverse sidecuts toward the tip and tail, so the the engaged edge gets longer as the rider tips the board harder. Serrated Edges 3S add three smaller edge contact points for grip on icy groomers without the aggressive bite of a full freeride edge. The build itself uses a thinner Wood 4515 core to keep flex appropriate for lighter weights, with the Rossitop 3 topsheet, fiberglass laminates, and an Extruded 4400 base. The shape stays a centered-insert true twin with the now-standard blunted tips.

Things to consider:

The 4/10 flex is dialed for lighter riders, an adult charging hard will overpower it. The extruded base is the trade-off Rossignol made to keep the price at $349, a sintered base would have been nicer but pushed the deck out of the kids segment. The Sawblade is the natural next step when the rider outgrows the Jibfluence's longest size.

Fit & sizing considerations:

The Jibfluence runs 125/130/135/140/145/150, a six-size range that covers most riders from middle elementary through teen years. Stick with your usual size for park days, drop a length for harder jib and butter focus. Waist holds at 24cm across the run, so toe-drag is not a worry for most kid boot sizes.
