From out of the dark comes a powerful creation, a snowboard so powerful it may well fill the place of the vanquished Nitro Prolight. Spec-ed to the max, the Nitro Shadow packs more under the topsheet than most high class rides; we are talking Gullwing camber, triaxial glass, basalt fibre reinforcement and Kevlar impact plates under the bindings. Expect a lively and responsive all-mountain snowboard designed to be ridden by aggressive and experienced snowboarders.

Manufacturer's Description:

The Shadow returns meshing all of our best Pro level features plus Gullwing camber, into one of the most versatile decks in our line. Its elongated flat kick nose and tail will float in pow while the waist width is stable enough to land airs with ease and still transition from edge to edge. The Gullwing camber relieves pressure at the contact points, making it a dream machine for charging untracked lines, switch fives in the park or ripping the entire mountain. The Powerlite core and Tri-lite laminates make this board extremely light and responsive for max pop. The Shadow combos all the best elements to create the ultimate off the rails, all terrain killer.
