A Lightweight Carving Dream

It's time to clear your calendar because the new Karma will give you the best carving experience you have ever had! The Karma's lightweight directional all-mtn shape, sintered base, and responsive core will help you fly through banked turns in the trees or groomers with ease and power, making it the most fun carving board in the Nitro line-up.

Introducing the new Karma snowboard built for cruising in and out of banked slaloms, groomers, and pow fields no matter what mountain range you find yourself charging in. For years the Nitro team has been working on a lightweight board that can be any experienced rider's go-to turning and burning board, and this is what the team has engineered - a board so powerful and fast you will need a strap for your hat! The Karma's Progressive sidecut, Directional and Mid-Wide shape allows you to carve so deep into turns it will feel like you are cheating. The Trüe Camber and Sintered Speed Formula HD Base will provide you with speed and power on every turn from the first to the last chair. If you are looking for a new experience and upgrade to your everyday all-mountain ride, then the new Nitro Karma snowboard will help you have more fun, go faster, and with more style all season long!

Trüe Camber

Trüe Camber is good old standard camber, which provides the stability, and pop many shreds can ́t live without. The amount of snap and support you get from a cambered board is unrivalled by any other camber design. Our Trüe Camber varies between board models because each board is specifically designed for a certain terrain or type of riding, for example the Trüe Camber in our Pantera has a larger height for maximum response, while the Trüe Camber in our freestyle boards are lower to provide you with a more freestyle friendly flex, without losing the support and trust you need for stomping landings. Camber is Camber there is no point in over complicating it!

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.

Progressive Sidecut

A larger radius in the front, blended into a tighter one towards the tail: The progressive sidecut makes accelerating out of turns a breeze, while maintaining a catch-free nose area.

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.
