Nitro Swindle Snowboard

Sick Park Board!

By Ranked #38 - Boards March 13, 2013

Zero camber shape is my personal favorite because of the way it locks onto rails and I feel that it's more predictable than other hybrid cambers. The Swindle seems pretty durable so far (no surprise there), but the best thing about this board in my opinion is the Superstache technology/reflex core profile, which in English means they thinned out the core between the inserts and thickened it underfoot. The theory is that it gives you a playful feel, while still giving you insane pop and control on landings or at higher speeds and hell... it works! I couldn't believe the pop on this thing! For a softer board, it also held its own in powder (although definitely not its specialty) when Seven Springs had a couple little stashes in their glades too. If you love rails, boxes, buttering around, and don't frequently hit jumps over 30ft, this board is perfect. If you want a more of a jump board or park board that excels at all mountain though, opt for the Rook, Team Gullwing, or T1. I own the TG and Rook as well
