Burton Nug - 2014

Get Rad-uctional with the Burton Nug and drop some length off what you normally ride from day to day. The Nug is designed to allow you to reduce your board length by between 8-10cm. Smaller boards are easier to maneuver and spin through the park amplifying the amount of fun you can have cruising the small jump line or hitting side-hits. The V-Rocker gives it a soft, buttery flex that is exactly what you need to perfect that nose press. Squeezebox is added into the equation to put a little more pop into your day and the Frostbite edges and Side Effects geometry are there to help regain some control lost by reducing the board’s effective edge and depening the sidecut. The Nug is marketed as a do-everything snowboard but in reality its for soft days on mellow terrain when you want to extract every gram of fun possible from a day on the hill.

Manufacturer's Description:

The original recipe for short board fun.
The origins of the Nug have been shrouded in secrecy. What is known about this potent little number, and all strains of Nuggetry for that matter, is that you can downsize 8 to 10cm for a quicker, more maneuverable ride. Optimized geometry means it will out-tweak, out-maneuver, and out-spin your normal board due to a complete retooling of shape, flex, and effective edge. Continuous rocker only adds to the habit-forming pleasure of riding this exotic freestyle subspecies.
