The Team Pro Sam Taxwood snowboard is a board built to do it all at a level above the rest. This new board offers more pop, control, and speeds allowing Sam to take his ATV (all-terrain vehicle) skills even further in every situation from the resort, park, superpipe, rail gardens, streets to the backcountry.
The Team Pro Sam Taxwood's carefully engineered construction gives a little extra performance to "level up" their riding effortlessly with a universally loved board shape. The tried, tested, and proper Directional Twin Shape and Dual Degressive sidecut provide the perfect blend of flex, edge hold, and control for any riding style. The Team Pro's upgraded Diamond Bands offer astronomically more pop and response than your average twin. Simultaneously, the upgraded Sintered Speed Formula II Base provides record-breaking speeds that allow you to go further than your peers in any situation. Finally, the Trüe Camber and Reflex Core Profile give you that snap and flex pattern that you demand "leveling up" your riding all over the mountain. If you are looking for a familiar ride with plenty of upgrades under the hood that allow you to excel in any terrain like Sam Taxwood, then the new Team Pro Sam Taxwood is the board for you!

Directional Twin
Versatile shape, performs best ridden regular but also rides switch well. The nose is slightly longer than the tail.
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.
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.
Powerlite Core: Lightweight Performance and Pop
The highest grade of ultra-lightweight poplar wood in our Powerlite core makes for the perfect ride with lots of pop and unmatched strength at a minimum weight.
