Cam-Out Camber
Our Cam-Out Camber is basically a Trüe Camber with early and smooth transitions into tip and tail. The result is a fun and responsive board that turns on the spot and is forgiving, even after that 713.5° landing!
All Terrain: All Mountain Pop
Our most versatile flex pattern, combining Nitro’s signature pop with smooth response, allowing you to tear up the entire mountain.
Directional Shape
The mother of all snowboard shapes. Purposeful, focused, and functional, a directionally shaped board will float in the pow, cut through the crust and provide you with a functional tail to rip it up all over the mountain.
Dual Degressive Sidecut
The Dual Degressive Sidecut blends a smaller radius in the center with two larger ones in the tip and tail, making it loose and playful. Nitro´s most forgiving sidecut.
Standard Width
Standard Width boards offer the best in edge-to edge quickness and response while still providing enough platform for average boot sizes.
Bi-Lite Laminates: Forgiving and Strong
Our rider-trusted Bi-Lite Laminates are engineered for unrivalled strength, powerful style and refined board-feel.
Powercore – Performance Driven 100% Woodcore
Our Powercore uses tip-to-tail poplar wood, providing lightweight strength and the perfect blend of flex, response and feel.
Power Pods – Step Up Your Carving Game
Overlaying a tighter sidecut radius in the center of the board with a larger one towards tip and tail is creating our exclusive Powerpods: They make the board super reactive and fast turning once it’s put on edge – while keeping it easy to control if ridden with less dynamics. As a bonus, you get extended board width under the bindings, resulting in additional edge control, especially on hard and icy surfaces as well as simply less toe and heel drag.
Sintered EcoSpeed HD Base – Sustainable, Durable and Fast
Utilizing a new base material compound, we have been able to achieve higher abrasion resistance, increased wax absorption and higher onsnow speeds.
Standard Core Profile – Even Flex and Control
Like a well-designed bow, the Standard Core Profile has a thicker part in the middle - from first insert to last – while thinning gradually towards the contact points, providing the ultimate in speed stability and edge control.
