Trüe Camber – Full-length camber from nose to tail provides unmatched pop, stability, and precision for aggressive riding.
Stiff – Built to handle high-speed lines, big landings, and powerful turns.
Directional Flex Pattern – Softer nose for smooth entry and a stiffer tail for drive and control out of turns.
Directional – With a longer nose and slightly tapered tail, this shape excels in float and directional stability.
Tapered Tail – Allows the tail to naturally sink in deep snow, keeping the nose up and increasing maneuverability.
Setback Stance – Shifts weight toward the tail for better float and a more responsive ride in all conditions.
Progressive Sidecut – Blends tight and mellow radii for snappy turn initiation and stable, powerful exits.
Powercore II – Poplar wood core reinforced with beech stringers for strength, response, and durability.
Reflex Core Profile – Thinned between the bindings for better board feel and control.
Diamond Band – Tip-to-tail carbon for added snap and torsional energy without adding weight.
Bi-Lite Laminates – Biax fiberglass offers smooth flex and consistent ride feel.
Sintered Speed Formula II Base – Nitro’s fastest base, infused with wax and ultra-durable for speed in all conditions.
2x4 Standard Inserts – Compatible with all major bindings and allows a variety of stance options.
Volcom Collab Graphics – Adds style and attitude to a high-performance shape.
Team-Tested Construction – Refined through feedback from Nitro and Volcom’s top riders.
All-Terrain Ready – Built for natural hits, drops, pow days, and fast groomers.
