Nitro Eeron Ettala as first board???

Posted: 08 July 2010 11:49 PM

Hello
After 2 months trying snowboarding, I’ve finally bought my first board, which is the Nitro Eeron Ettala Am.
Has it been a right choice or it’s not suitable for a novice?
I’m 172cm and my weigh is between 65 and 70 kilo. The board’s length is 152cm. Is it too short for me?
Shape: Directional Twin |  Flex: All Terrain |  Camber: ZERO |  Width: Medium
Thanks for your help!

Rest assured the Nitro Eero is going to be fine for learning snowboarding. Sure it could be a little longer which would help with getting to grips with powder (For your stats I’d probably say 156ish) and perhaps the board is a little bit firmer than I’d advise for first boarders but it will be absolutely fine. You’ll get through the early stages of learning so quickly that you’ll need a board that can provide you with the spec you’ll need for progressing.. the Eero will be great for this. It will be a fine for learning the ropes, so quit stressing and enjoy your new purchase.
