Nidecker Alpha snowboard

Inspired by the efficient shapes found in nature, the Alpha redefines 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.

• Our 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.

Flex

Mid Soft - 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.

Construction

Premium Sandwich

A step up from our standard sandwich construction that adds carbon stringers for more pop, quicker edge response and improved shock absorption.

Topsheet

Absorbnid

An innovative top layer designed to absorb unwanted vibrations. Enjoy a smooth ride with less fatigue.

Inserts

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.

Fiberglass

Biax Plus

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.

Core

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.

Base

N-7000 Hybrid

The sweet spot between extruded and sintered – high-density material with enhanced carbon content for better wax absorption and a faster glide, without the maintenance demands of a fully sintered base.

Added Carbon

Pop Carbon

Carbon fiber is positioned between the inserts and the nose and tail – boosting ollie power and dampening chatter.

3D Shaping

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

Our 3D curved nose helps the board roll smoothly from edge to edge, creating a natural, surf-like flow through each turn.

Extras

Diecut Base

Pure-color base materials pieced together like a jigsaw for bold, crisp graphics.

Gloss Finish

Adds a premium deep shine to select board artwork.

Overprint

Layered topsheet artwork that adds depth and texture to the graphic.

Translucent Color

A three-dimensional graphic using less ink to reveal more of the construction.
