The full width nose and narrower tail of our Tapered Swallowtail shapes make the board float evenly through the fluffiest of pow and cut through the occasional crust, while the deeply cut swallowtail reduces the rearward board surface even more for improved control and reduced rear leg burn.
Nitro Cannon Snowboard
Nitro Cannon Snowboard
The World´s Most Famous Swallowtail
The Quiver Cannon is the most iconic swallowtail snowboard thanks to Bryan Fox, Marcus Kleveland, Markus Keller, and the rest of the Nitro Pro team ripping it worldwide in every type of terrain, from big open-face pow runs and halfpipe contests to charging slushy park laps. It is available in two sizes, the versatile 173cm and the big boy 203cm. Both sizes ride smaller than their registered length because their effective edge is reduced – providing easy control with speed, endless float, and the most fun on and off the marked trail.

Characteristics
Tapered SwallowtailShape
Cam-Out CamberCamber
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!
Mid-WideWidth
Mid-Wide boards provide that little extra in width for less toe and heel drag, additional flotation and that extra bit of confidence when leaning into these power carves on icy slopes.
ProgressiveSidecut
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.
All-TerrainFlex
Our most versatile flex pattern, combining Nitro’s signature pop with smooth response, allowing you to tear up the entire mountain.
Special Features
Powercore II
The Powercore II is a tip-to-tail poplar wood core with additional beech wood stringers for unrivalled strength, smooth response, and insane pop.
Standard Core Profile
Like a well-designed bow, the Standard Core Profile has a thicker part in the middle - from first insert to last – while thinning gradually towards the contact points, providing the ultimate in speed stability and edge control.
Bi-Lite Laminates
Our rider-trusted Bi-Lite Laminates are engineered for unrivalled strength, powerful style and refined board-feel.
Sintered EcoSpeed HD Base
Utilizing a recycled material compound, we have been able to achieve the same abrasion resistance, increased wax absorption and on-snow speeds with our Sintered EcoSpeed HD base as on other comparable sintered bases.
