Choose the Nidecker Alpha for its powder-focused design that still offers versatility for park and all-mountain riding. It combines fun, float, and responsiveness, making it an excellent choice for those looking to explore and get creative on the mountain.
- Surfy Camrock Profile - Increased floatability and maintains carving performance for a backfoot ride.
- Premium Sandwich Construction - Steps up the power and response of Nidecker's standard sandwich manufacturing. Adding advanced materials like Carbon and Kevlar gives the board more pop and improves shock absorption.
- Absorbnid Top Layer - Designed to absorb unwanted vibrations for a more dynamic, responsive, and smooth ride.
- 4/2-6 Inserts - 6 rows of inserts every 2 cm allow you to adjust your stance to the optimum position and work with all bindings on the market.
- Triax Plus Fibreglass - The result of extensive testing. Orientated at 45° to the board and contains different glass densities. This provides consistent torsional flex, better pop, and more reactivity on every turn.
- Master Core Woodcore - The perfect harmony of different wood densities and varieties (poplar, beech, spruce, and paulownia) resulting in a superior weight-to-performance-to-power ratio and an ultra-strong, extra-responsive, lightweight core.
- N-7000 Base - An extremely tough, sintered base with added carbon nanoparticles that provide exceptional glide.
- Pop Carbon Fibres - Strategic placement of carbon fibre from the tail to the rear inserts and from the nose to the front inserts results in a more reactive board with increased pop and stiffness. Its vibration dampening qualities make it ideal for more aggressive riding in all conditions.
- Sintered Base - Durable and highly porous, providing added durability and superior wax absorption for greater overall glide.
- Asymmetrical Twin Shape - True Twin nose to tail, with a tighter heelside sidecut for better control during frontside turns and carves.
