Nidecker The Smoke 162 query?

Posted: 29 August 2011 11:50 PM

Hi there, I am an advanced skier and most of my mates snowboard so I thought I would learn the ropes so to speak.  I am looking at buying an older (2009 I think but clarification of the year would be great) Nidecker The Smoke 162 board, but it has specific graphics and it isnt the same as the boards I can find on the net, so I am just trying to check if it really is a Nidecker Smoke snoboard as I can’t find it anywhere on the net!

I have attached a pic, any help would be appreciated to help me identify this board.

Thanks.

Alex.

HI Alex. The board is indeed a Nidecker Smoke but I think somebody has been telling you a little lie. THat model is from the 2004/05 season, it’s pretty much an antique now! Here’s a link to the site I used to date it 04/05 board guide . I’d probably try and get a board a little more recent unless the seller is practically giving it away. Rich

Thanks for your reply. It was up for £135 but I’d rather get a more modern board with some newer technology to be honest as it’s for my 30 th birthday. I quite like the atomic machete board with the ski base for an all mountain board.
