CAMBER LINES
True Camber: "TRÜE Camber is good old standard camber, which provides the stability, and pop many shreds can ́t live without. The amount of snap and support you get from a cambered board is unrivalled by any other camber design. Our TRÜE Camber varies between board models because each board is specifically designed for a certain terrain or type of riding, for example the TRÜE Camber in our Pantera SC has a larger height for maximum response, while the TRÜE Camber in our freestyle boards are lower to provide you with a more freestyle friendly flex, without loosing the support and trust you need for stomping landings. Camber is Camber there is no point in over complicating it!" - Nitro SnowboardsCam Out Camber: "Our Cam-Out Camber us 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!" - Nitro Snowboards
Gullwing Rocker: "A hybrid Camber/Rocker profile in a league of it ́s own, Gullwing offers the best of both worlds for the All-Mountain Destroyer. The Positive Camber under each foot supplies riders with the response they know and love while the Reverse Camber Profile in the center allows you to experience unparalleled float in the Powder, as well as superb press-ability in the Park. This Do-It-All design allows you to have a Quiver of one and ride the whole Mountain like a Terrain Park." - Nitro Snowboards
Flat Out Rocker : "Flat-Out Rocker is a hybrid flat camber profile where the nose and tail lift off before the traditional contact points, providing effortless turns, and catch-free maneuvers. The lifted nose and tail provide excellent float, pressability, and forgiveness in any terrain. The ultimate hybrid between Zero Camber and Reverse Camber to allow you to have the most playful yet stabile ride for easy progression and all-mountain domination. The profile of choice for park, freestyle, and urban riders worldwide." - Nitro Snowboards.
BOARD TECH
RAIL KILLER EDGE:
Your secret weapon for rails, rocks and longevity! With it ́s unique edge profile and an impact resistance of more than 200% compared to a standard edge - the Railkiller Edge is twice as thick and twice as strong. This proprietary construction can take on any rail challenge. Take a file to them or ride them hard and wear them down naturally, this chunk of steel has enough meat for years of abuse.
POWER PODS:
Overlaying a tighter sidecut radius in the center of the board with a larger one towards tip and tail is creating our exclusive POWERPODS which have two amazing effects: On one hand, there is 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 for larger boots and flatter stance angles. On the other hand, POWERPODS 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.
BALLISTIC IMPACT PANEL:
Kevlar is used in bulletproof vests and body armor to protect your core. Nitro use it in strategic places around the binding-to-board interface to protect the construction from impacts during hard landings.
CORES
POWERLITE CORE:
LIGHTWEIGHT PERFORMANCE AND POP.
The highest grade of ultra-lightweight poplar wood in our Powerlite core makes for the perfect ride with lots of pop and unmatched strength at a minimum weight.
POWERCORE:
PERFORMANCE DRIVEN.
Powercore uses tip-to-tail poplar wood, providing lightweight strength and the perfect blend of flex, response and feel.
POWER CORE II:
ENHANCED PERFORMANCE AND EXTRA STRENGTH.
The Powercore II is a tip-to-tail poplar wood core with additional beech wood stringers for unrivalled strength, smooth response and insane snap.
KOROYD CORE:
The latest in core technology, utilizing co-extruded miniature tubes, vertically aligned and welded, with unique energy absorption properties, Koroyd is approximately 70% lighter than standard balsa wood, with no loss in strength or flex. This engineered core is utilized in the tip and tail of the new HIGHLANDER model for reduced swing mass and overall weight.
