The Fun Shape Experience

Designed specifically to make each turn more memorable with its fun & versatile shape, the Drop offers reliable edge hold and forgiving catch-free contact points to help you expand your confidence and technique with ease. Less stress, more fun is the whole idea of snowboarding with the Drop under your feet.

Drop what you are doing, plan your next escape from your daily routine, and let this directionally shaped fun board, named the Nitro Drop, take you offline and into the mountains. Experience the float in the pow you desire without sacrificing the forgivingness and support you need to progress with Cam-Out Camber. Carving down open groomers will be your new favorite early morning activity after yoga. Our unique Power Pods provide added edge hold, and the Sintered Speed Formula HD Base will make sure speed is never an issue. The Drop will help you get offline and escape your everyday routine by allowing you to cruise confidently on and off the marked trails locally or abroad.

Cam-Out Camber

Our Cam-Out Camber is basically a Trüe Camber with early and smooth transitions into tip and tail. The result is a fun and responsive board that turns on the spot and is forgiving, even after that 713.5° landing!

All Terrain: All Mountain Pop

Our most versatile flex pattern, combining Nitro’s signature pop with smooth response, allowing you to tear up the entire mountain.

Dual Degressive Sidecut

This sidecut blends a smaller radius in the center with two larger ones in the tip and tail, making it loose and playful. Nitro's most forgiving sidecut.

Power Pods

Overlaying a tighter sidecut radius in the center of the board with a larger one towards tip and tail is creating our exclusive POWERPODS which have two amazing effects: On one hand, there is extended board width under the bindings, resulting in additional edge control, especially on hard and icy surfaces as well as simply less toe and heel drag for larger boots and flatter stance angles. On the other hand, our POWERPODS make the board super reactive and fast turning once it’s put on edge – while keeping it easy to control if ridden with less dynamics.

Powercore: Performance Driven

Our Powercore uses tip-to-tail poplar wood, providing lightweight strength and the perfect blend of flex, response and feel.

Bi-Lite Laminates: Forgiving and Strong

Our rider-trusted Bi-Lite Laminates are engineered for unrivalled strength, powerful style and refined board-feel.

Sintered Speed Formula HD Base: High Density - High Durability

Utilizing a new base material compound, we have been able to achieve higher abrasion resistance, increased wax absorption and higher onsnow speeds.

Carbon Neutral Product

Together with ClimatePartner we are able to use specific and accurate tools and information to measure our carbon footprint in life cycle from production to end life of our snowboards. Our partnership with ClimatePartner allows us to strive to find more effecient ways to improve and reduce our carbon footprint every step of our products lifecycle, and also allows us to offset our current carbon footprint to make our snowboards and bindings 100% Carbon Neutral by investing into climate change projects and solutions. Reducing, rethinking, and compensating for CO2 emissions is just the start.

100% Natural Speed Wax

All NITRO boards are factory-tuned with Kandahars 100% Natural Speed Wax, a fully biodegradable wax made of renewable resources.
