Some might say the Nidecker Megalight plays second fiddle to the more expensive Ultralight but there are very few differences. The Megalight still has Grip Tech edges, a Swiss made nano carbon 8800 grade base, 3D construction and Carbon fibre laminates, so the cash saving doesn’t really mean any change in performance at all. Available with a traditional camber of Freeride Camrock profile.

After Palmer stopped distributing in the US, I spent a long time looking for a replacement for my old Palmer Honeycomb.  After riding almost every highend deck out there, I was able to take a test ride on a Megalight.  This thing blew me away!  Not only does it have amazing edgehold here on East Coast ice, but the nose shape and torsional flex makes this thing rock in deep Pow.  I would recommend the CamRock version for any intermediate and up looking to up their game on a true do it all deck.

Cheers!!!
