Nitro Blacklight Snowboard    Read other reviews of this product
 
Best all mtn freestyle board   07-21-08   

This was by far my most favorite all mtn freestyle boards I demoed last season. The Blacklight is an updated Suprateam and it's better in every way. Softer, with more POP a better FX Base and a mid wide so it's perfect for size 10 boots like I have. I rode this board in CO when there was 8inches of fresh and it plowed through everything. Hit the park on after the trees and it held it's own on big jumps and even on a couple rails. I can't say enough good things about this board. If you're looking at Burton, Rome, Ride or K2 give a good look at the Nitro Blacklight.

Nitro Misfit Snowboard - Wide    Read other reviews of this product
 
Nothing like a Misfit   07-18-08   

Again Nitro is onto something with their boards this year. I loved this board at camp. It has great flex, the perfect shape and turns on a dime. I love the FX base as I love rails and hate to wax. The FX base is much harder than a regular base and you don't have to wax it! It's the perfect board. I'd put this ahead of the Burton Custom any day of the week and it has a 2 year warranty and costs much less!

like but not love   07-18-08   

I liked this board but didn't love it. Nice pop and edge hold but it felt dead to me. Maybe it was me but the board felt slugish on the mt hood snow. For the price I expected more from this board. Come on K2 step up. I liked the Burton Fix, Nitro T2 and Capita Indoor much more than this deck.

Get this board!   07-21-08   

Just rode this board at camp. Loved it! From what I understand the Nitro Team board has won the good wood test for the last couple of years in a row. After riding this board I see why. I rode this in all conditions both in park, pipe, big jumps and rails and it did everything I asked it to do. The flex is perfect, Mid to mid soft. It had pop right out of a dream. I also rode the K2 darkstar and jibpan and loved this board so much more. If you're looking for a board that can ride it all from the mtn to the park the Team is it. I just picked one up and am looking forward to a great season.

Nitro Andreas Wiig Snowboard    Read other reviews of this product
 
Amazing Board   07-18-08   

This is an amazing board. I was blown away by Nitro's offering this season. I just got back from HCSC and rode all of their demo boards. I was under the impression that Nitro's boards were stiff. Either they've changed or I was dead wrong. The Wiig held an amazing edge at all speeds, the shape is perfect and with size 10 boots the waist is perfect. I loved the flex of this board, not stiff but not too soft and it had a TON of POP! I used this board for two weeks and with the FX base didn't have to wax once! All in all this is one of the best boards I've ever ridden. If you want a quality board that can ride everythig this is the board for you. The FX base and Nitro's two year warranty just make it that much better.

good but not great   07-18-08   

Just rode this at camp, it's good but not great. I liked the flex of the board but it felt a little dead to me and on the grainular snow at hood in the morning it chattered a lot. I liked the Nitro Team board and the Capita Indoor better.

Lib Technologies Skate Banana BTX Narrow Snowboard - Assorted Bananas    Read other reviews of this product
 
No go   07-29-08   

Rocked one of these last season. It was a lot of fun as it was something different but it shouldn't peel after a month of riding. My top sheet chipped and came off the nose and tail in a month! Lib fix the construction of your decks! To top it off they wouldn't warranty it for me. I wish I had got it from this site but I didn't so I was SOL. I'm going to hold out for the Nitro Sub Pop I've been hearing a lot about or get the K2 Turbo Dream. I trust these two brands so I know they'll last longer than my Lib haha. Oh and the TNT base sucks. It's so slow!
