The Nitro Sintered Speed Formula II Base is an advanced base material that offers snowboarders an unparalleled feeling of speed and durability on the mountain. With its ability to hold wax and exceptional durability, this base ensures a smooth and fast ride, regardless of the conditions.
This core is designed to offer a combination of lightness and strength, allowing snowboarders to experience responsive performance and agility without compromising on durability. The Reflex Core Profile is designed with an advanced core construction where the center of the snowboard is slightly recessed. This provides a responsive flex in the middle of the board for easy turns and control, while the tip and tail of the board are stiffer for stability at high speeds and landings.
Carbon stringers are ultra-strong yet lightweight. Tip-to-tail stringers transfer the rider's input to help you steer your board and maintain control.
A larger radius at the front, transitioning into a tighter one towards the tail: The progressive sidecut makes exiting turns a breeze, while the nose remains catch-free.
Camber is a distinctive snowboard profile where the center of the board bends upwards and the contact points at the tip and tail rest on the snow. This creates an arched shape and provides better grip, responsiveness, and pop.
A directional shape ensures improved performance and stability when riding in one direction, especially when freeriding and on powder snow.
