The Smoke 26/27

The Nidecker Smoke is a stiff directional asymmetric snowboard with a Surfy CamRock profile. It is made for full speed carves on the groomers and effortless float in pow.

The asymmetric shape is built for one specific stance, regular or goofy, and delivers balanced edge control on both toe and heel edge. The sidecut is optimized to keep you locked on rail when riding heelside. Extra volume in the nose helps the board through deep or bumpy sections. Surfy CamRock feels spring-loaded underfoot, with extended rocker towards the nose to push through deep snow and chop. Power Rails is Nidecker's own surf-inspired construction, with the topsheet wrapped over a rounded wood core to meet a thin sidewall for more power and grip through the edge. Booster Bars are lightweight alloy inlays on each side of the board that transfer your input straight into the edges. It comes with a board sock.
