Snowboard - Nitro Quiver Ika 152
The Ika is Christy Prior’s new weapon, an agile fish with tons of float in powder. This snowboard is very nimble and built for carving and pow days.
Its Tapered Swallowtail and Cam-Out Camber combine to give the board excellent float in deep snow, lightning-quick edge to edge response,and powerful edge hold for aggressive turns. The Ika is fairly stiff, providing great stability even at high speeds, but thanks to its narrow shape and Progressive Sidecut, it still feels easy to ride and forgiving. The shape will definitely turn some heads!
The Ika is part of the Nitro Quiver Series, a small collection which experiments with different shapes and profiles. The line was developed by the team rider Bryan Fox, Christy Prior and Nitro’s founder Thomas Delago.
The board is waxed and tuned at the factory, ready for the slopes!
Watch the video below where Nitro presents the Ika.
Rider:
Freeride – A proper carving and powderbeast that’s both agile and aggressive.
Freeride: 10/10
All Mountain: 8/10
Freestyle: 1/10
Flex: All Terrain 7/10
Our most versatile flex pattern, combining Nitro’s signature pop with smooth response, allowing you to tear up the entire mountain. Flex 1/10 is soft and playful whilst 10/10 is stiff and responsive.
Rider Level:
Intermediate -Advanced
Shape:
Tapered Swallowtail: Big nose and short tail which gives you a good float in pow but at the same time able to make aggressive turns.
Progressive Sidecut: A larger radius in the front, blended into a tighter one towards the tail: The progressive sidecut makes accelerating out of turns a breeze, while maintaining a catch-free nose area.
Profile:
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!
Construction:
Powercore II: The Powercore II is a tip-to-tail poplar wood core with additional beech wood stringers for unrivalled strength, smooth response and insane snap.
Reflex Core Profile: A thinner core profile between your feet improves handling and increases torsional flex, allowing you to steer your board through a turn with ease.
Bi-Lite Laminates: Our rider-trusted Bi-Lite Laminates are engineered for unrivalled strength, powerful style and refined board- feel.
Sintered EcoSpeed HD Base: Utilizing a new base material compound, we have been able to achieve higher abrasion resistance, increased wax absorption and higher on- snow speeds.
Wax: All NITRO boards are factory-tuned with Kandahars 100% Natural Speed Wax, a fully Bio-degradable wax made of renewable resources.
Sustainability:
Eco Guard Topsheet with material that utilizies post-industrial recycled material at a 90% rate.
Eco Poxy 33 is a an environmentally enhanced epoxy system with over 33% of products molecular structure derived from plant and vegetable matter.
Water-based incs for over 70% of all topsheets
Wood from responsible sources (FSC certified)
All edges are made of 50% recycled steel
