Nidecker Ultralight - 2011

Last year I would have quite happily labeled the Nidecker Ultralight the easiest to ride, high performance freeride snowboard on the planet. Now the Ultralight has inherited Freeride Camrock rocker/camber hybrid profile it is more nimble and even better in powder… oh and even easier to ride! The Ultralight burns the rule book when it comes to construction, the wood core is fabricated from wood plies bonded together with the heat generated from friction; the edges come with the option of Ultimate Grip as serrated edge that cuts into ice like a bread knife; then there’s the 3D core profiling. There’s no denying the Ultralight is special.
