Nitro Rook - 2012

How did a snowboard that was only released two seasons ago become so popular? Its mid-wide waist, zero camber profile, twin shape and medium/soft flex might go some way to explaining the Nitro Rook’s success, but it’s more likely the fact that the Rook devours rails, fires off kickers and out of the pipe and doesn’t mind a powder session either. What’s not to like?

Manufacturer's Description:

The Rook is a true twin that has won multiple board tests in the last two seasons, giving it the instant legendary board status. The mid-wide shape and Zero Camber makes the board easier to transition from rails to jumps. The Bi-lite Laminates give the Rook a very forgiving flex while the Ballistic Impact Panels and Railkiller Edge take all the abuses from the park dishes out. Rounding out the Rook insanity is the duel degressive sidecut that keeps the board from being catchy on take offs and landings, but provides a solid hold between your feet. Don’t be a mark for those other companies ñ try a board that will give you some love back.
