Nitro Blacklight Gullwing Snowboard - 2011
The product of countless hours of R&D, the Nitro Blacklight Gullwing Snowboard is a lightweight, worthy all-mountain freestyle destroyer. With a custom-tuned Gullwing camber design and directional-twin shape, the Blacklight balances power, float, and stompability. The mid-wide platform is great for riders with size 10-12 boots, or those seeking a little extra float and landing gear for super-deep snow.
- Custom-tuned Gullwing design uses a lower rocker height between your feet, with camber zones underfoot for a powerful freestyle ride that shreds any terrain
- Lava Laminates combine basalt fiber with traditional fiberglass for improved pop and decreased weight
- Sintered Speed Formula II base is pre-impregnated with wax for great glide in all conditions...just remember to tune it once in a while
Bottom Line: Get a new perspective on all-mountain freestyle.
Leave your mark on The Wall.
This thing rips!

I rode this board the other day at Loveland here in Colorado. There was probably close to a foot of fresh and this thing killed it. I was on the 157 gullwing and it turned harder than most full cambered boards and floated like my big board. The gullwing on this board is mellower than the gullwing on the pro series or team. There is only a little bit of reverse camber between the bindings and then normal regular camber on the nose and tail. It was just enough to keep me floating, but didn't washout at all if I got in the back seat or loopy. This thing is really aggressive though. There were a couple times I got a little lazy and this board definitely let me know that. The blacklight would be perfect for someone looking for a hard charging all mountain killer. Oh yea, this thing is f'in fast!
Change me.
