Burton Nug Snowboard - 2010
Unlearn what you think you know about snowboards with the Burton Nug Snowboard. The Nug is engineered to be ridden 8-10cm shorter than your normal sized board while maintaining the same all-mountain capabilities like providing float for riding powder, stability for carving groomers and the flex for storming the park. The Nug features the Squeeze Box core profiling and other notable features like Jumper Cables, Pro-Tip and Infinite Ride. Shred-Veteran Dave Downing swears by it, so you know it’s legit.
- Geometry, flex and effective edge are completely rethought and implemented so the Nug can be downsized 8-10cm from your regular board
- Squeeze Box has a thinner core directly under bindings and gradually becomes thicker in the areas outside the bindings, which creates mutant-like pop and precise handling
- V-Rocker continuous rocker with Frostbite edges work together like yin and yang for being both playful and ferocious
- The Channel— more stance options and board feel than any other binding-compatibility module, and it’s now newly evolved to work on various manufacturers’ bindings
- Scoop Technology—exaggerated tip and tail scooping helps to provide a catch-free and loose feeling by turning the edges up
- Jumper Cables—carbon stringers, starting from center of the board to the outside contact points, bring snappy ollies and explosive response in and out of turns
- Infinite Ride technology gives a pre-broken-in feeling (the overbuilt core gets put through the ringer in the factory) for forgiving playfulness on the snow
- You may get a different colored board than the one you see here. We can’t control it. But we’re sure you’ll be stoked.
Bottom Line: Engineered to annihilate.
Leave your mark on The Wall.

So if i'm used to riding between a 148 and 145cm board the Nug 142 would work well?

Yes it would work. The recommended sizing is down 8-10 cms but if you already are running a 145 then the 142 will work.

just demoed the 2011 2012 board loved how you can ride a like 10 sizes smaller then normal. i ride a 155 and the burton rep had me on a 146 and i was bearly able to tell the diference in board feal untill i was hiting the jumps and spining i was throwing 720's like as if thay where just 360's. i realy liked how well it held up at high speeds to. so if you are consitering this board definatly buy it it might be the beast board i evere road. the rocker on it is not to redikulas but it buters as much as the signal park rocker i rode that to but did not like that as much as the nug so i would recomend this board over eney other rocker board.

I'm a 5'4" female. I've been deciding between the Nug 142 or 146 or the burton blender 145. I'm not sure which i should go with.

The 142 all the way. The nug is the best board ever created by Burton. After a couple runs of this board you will never ride an other board again. I'm not joking.

Nug = Beyond Good

So, I just got a Nug and had a chance to take it through some paces. In a word, this thing is beyond crazy. Before I talk about the Nug though, I need to point out that Dogfunk needs to correct the info about the board. It's not a one color board as the 142 is a green top, the 146 a blue top, and the 150 is an amber colored top. Now about the Nug: I am an intermediate rider and have only ridden camber boards before the Nug. Conditions I have been in with the Nug are icy hardpack, 6in. of powder, and groomers with some chop. This thing has as much edge hold as my old 147cm board and I'm riding the 142cm. The most amazing thing is that I hit some spots when I was getting used to riding the Nug where I thought, "Ah $hit, I just caught an edge." I was expecting to face plant and break my @$$, but instead the Nug just twitched a little bit and rode out strong. This thing has awesome float in powder, crazy edge hold, and it is just as fun as it can be. As a shorter rider I have a hard time finding some really high end boards that are in my size. Most boards I have been looking at rarely come in sizes below a 150cm and that is about my max length to ride comfortably. The Nug, however is legit and drops some all mountain domination into the hands of shorter riders. I hope it's here to stay. Seriously though, the ad was right; one hit and I was hooked! Thanks to Mark E. from Dogfunk for being an awesome chat rep and getting this board to me asap! Oh yea, this board has a wicked fast sintered base so expect to bomb runs on it while staying upright, stable, and smiling the whole time.

I've the got 142 Nug with 09 Burton Triads. LOVE IT!
Pros:
-turns quick, excellent in the trees
-fairly good on jumps
-very stable considering it's size
-easy to press, butter, 180s, 360s, etc
Cons:
-first 3 runs I was mentally getting f*cked thinkin how short this board was
-edge hold isn't as good as I like, compared to gnu park pickle
-kinda slow edge to edge

Oh crap. That disclaimer about the colors kind of sucks. I bought specific bindings to match the blue and now I'll get the orange?! Uh oh! Oh well. Orange and purple doesn't look THAT bad does it?!
Is the Nug compatible with the 2010 Rome 390's?

don't listen to any of these guys. technically, no, you cannot use Rome bindings on the Channel. the M6 transition kits are for Burton bindings ONLY. and if you are buying EST baseplates, why not just buy the whole EST binding? that's ridiculous.
i have heard of some people jerry-rigging non-burton bindings and making them work, but it's not the safest idea, and will void any warranty claims for either product.
Union & Flux do provide their own "adapters" for use on the channel, but nothing will work as good as Burton's on these boards.

If you call up Burton rider services they will send you free discs that will allow you to use your normally 4x4 bindings on burton boards with the channel system.

Dude, when you get the Nug just call up your nearest board shop or goto Burton.com and use the store finder. Just bring your Dogfunk.com receipt to your nearest store and you can get the M6 Transition Kit for free. This kit allows the Nug to work with any bindings. =)
