Nidecker Alpha Snowboard Inspired by the efficient shapes found in nature, the Alpha sets a new standard in all-mountain fluency. Glide effortlessly through pow, slice clean lines down the trails or thread the needle on your favourite tree-run; it’s all about flow. A 3D spooned nose provides maximum float and smooth turn initiation, while the subtle pinch at the rear of the sidecut helps it to sink in deep snow. This is the go-to deck for creative mountain surfers like Mat Crepel. Nidecker's Surfy CamRock profile is spring-loaded between the feet but extends the nose rocker to help the Alpha mow down bumps and plow through deep snow with ease. The Alpha's 3D spooned nose and pinched-in tail give the board incredible glide and natural float. The core is made from a blend of poplar and paulownia, with carbon inlays at the nose and tail for super lively response. Features: Flex: 2/5 - Playful and relaxed. A mid-soft flex lets you get creative across the whole mountain, from park hits to powder butters Surfy CamRock - Features extended rocker at the nose and regular camber through the rest of the board. Together with a shorter tail, it allows you to glide over bumps or pow and initiate turns off the back foot for a unique, surf-like ride. Premium Sandwich - A step up from our standard sandwich construction that adds carbon stringers for more pop, quicker edge response and improved shock absorption. Absorbnid- An innovative top layer designed to absorb unwanted vibrations. Enjoy a smooth ride with less fatigue. 4x2/6 - 6 rows of inserts at 2 cm intervals gives you maximum choice of stance width and works with any binding on the market. Biax Plus - Features a classic 90° weave but uses more glass to enhance power transfer. It’s super responsive and ideal for riders seeking a stiffer and more agile board that's still playful. Master Core - Our Master Core is the culmination of decades of experimentation in materials and woodcraft. Two species of wood (poplar and paulownia) are combined to give the best of all worlds: light, strong and responsive. N-7000 Hybrid - Developed exclusively for Nidecker, the N-7000 Hybrid combines the durability and low-maintenance of an extruded base with the hardness of a sintered one. Minimum effort, maximum glide. Pop Carbon - Carbon fiber is positioned between the inserts and the nose and tail – boosting ollie power and dampening chatter. Drop Out - The Drop Out is derived from the shape of a bird of prey's tail. It generates more control when up on edge, but also allows for extra agility and deep, tight turns. Evolution nose - Nidecker's 3D curved nose helps the board roll smoothly from edge to edge, creating a natural, surf-like flow through each turn.
