Nidecker Platinum - 2012

http://www.snowboard-review.com/images/brands/nidecker/logo/nidecker_logo.gif

You are looking at the only snowboard in the entire Nidecker range that doesn’t feature some degree of Camrock, as standard or as an option; that’s because the Platinum is all about edge control and raw speed. This year the construction has got all eco with the welcome addition of lightweight Basalt and damp linseed fibre reinforcement. Other features include Nidecker’s uber slick 8800 nano carbon base and Ultimate Traction edges, five bumps strategically placed along the edge for improved grip. Boardercross junkies and point and shoot freeriders eat your hearts out!

Manufacturer's Description:

The Platinum’s ultimate performance has made this one of the most acclaimed boards in our line, from hard charging freeriders through to seasoned boardercross racers this big mountain charger delivers stunning response and control over the whole mountain. Once again we have utilised sustainable materials in its construction, from FSC approved wood cores through to linseed fibres in the structural layers ensuring the Platinum blends its eco friendly nature with one of the most responsive rides out there.
