The Nidecker The Smoke is made for snowboarders who want every descent to feel like a surf session in deep powder. This stylish freeride board combines a playful character with impressive control and stability, letting you effortlessly cut through fresh snow, steep couloirs and perfectly groomed runs. Thanks to the directional shape with setback Stance, the nose effortlessly stays afloat in deep snow and you experience less tired legs during long runs.
The Surfy CamRock profile gives The Smoke a unique mix of grip, float and maneuverability. The longer rocker in the nose lets the board glide smoothly over powder and chopped snow, while the camber under the feet provides powerful edge control and stable carves at high speed. The result is a snowboard that feels smooth and surfy, yet can ride surprisingly aggressively when you want it to.
Under the hood is an ultra-light Light Core of poplar and paulownia wood, reinforced with beech stringers for extra pop and durability. The combination of Triax Plus fiberglass and carbon inserts in the nose and tail gives The Smoke a quick response and a tight, stable feel in every turn. Even in choppy snow or icy conditions the board remains calm and controlled.
The finish also shows that Nidecker has an eye for detail. The exclusive Power Rails construction provides direct power transfer and extra grip during deep carves, while the fast N-9000 sintered base delivers maximum speed on any terrain. The Absorbnid topsheet dampens vibrations and increases comfort during long days in the mountains.
With a resort score of 5/5 and a powerful flex, The Smoke is perfect for experienced riders who love Flow, speed and natural lines in the mountains. Park riders would do better to look elsewhere, but for fans of carving, powder and surfy turns this is a snowboard that makes every run unforgettable.

Technical Specifications

Produced with carbon nanoparticles, the N 9000 has a very dense molecular structure, making it Nidecker's fastest, most durable base material.
This lightweight core with three different wood species is a perfect combination of paulownia for lightness, poplar for pop and responsiveness, and hardwood beech along the edges to reinforce the core
This triax laminate is the result of extensive testing with pro riders and engineers. It is laid at a 45-degree angle to the board and contains varying glass densities. This provides consistent torsional flex, better pop, and more responsiveness on every run
Absorbnid is an innovative top layer designed to absorb unwanted vibrations. This allows us to develop responsive, dynamic boards that still give you a smooth, fatigue-free ride.
Surfy CamRock - has an extended rocker in the nose and a normal camber over the rest of the board. Together with a shorter tail, this ensures that you glide smoothly over bumps and powder and can initiate turns from your back foot. This gives a unique, surf-like feeling while riding.
A directional shape provides improved performance and stability when riding in one direction, especially for freeriding and in powder.
