Nitro Snowboards - Ultimate Board Diversity

Описание: Nitro Board´s - Ultimate Diversity - Extended Version 2021

Diversity has been the design creed of the Nitro snowboard line since the beginning, and there is a long list of industry firsts in board shapes from the early ´90s until today. This variety is not driven by coming up with the ‘next crazy new thing’, though: It pays respect to different riding styles, from weekend warrior to pro, from park to pow, from resort to the backcountry. It is fueled by the variety of people in our company, from technician to salesman, from team rider to the kids in our families. This allows us to come up with a great variety of boards that are - above all – functional and fun.

People thought we were out of our minds when in our first collection of 1990, we presented the “Retro”, a 171 swallow-tailed powder board which we designed as a tribute to the early, surf-inspired days of snowboarding. And we basically kept a swallowtail board in the line every year since then.

However, the most challenging boards to design are the ones that look quite ordinary, as they must work in a variety of conditions and for many riding styles and levels. For most of us, a well-balanced all-mountain board is still the best choice.

We take pride in offering boards in all price categories, too. Not everyone can afford high-end boards and we feel a responsibility to make products also for slimmer wallets, so more people can go out and enjoy riding with their buddies. And we proudly design rental boards that equal our in-line models in tech, function, and looks. A snowboarder is a snowboarder, we are all one community.
