Nitro Team Series Art Attack Snowboard - 2008 BCS

This is a great all around board. I had the opportunity to try it out in several different elements (park, powder, ice). It is stiff enough to hold its edge at high speed and the sharp edges manage to hold over a little ice. Being stiffer it took a little getting used to in the park, but after some adjustments it performed satisfactorily. I have to say that it wasn't very good in powder, it's not really designed for that aspect of "all mountain" riding. I'll be watching out for sidewall delaminating. Overall if you want a fast, light, affordable all mountain (minus powder) board with some great artwork and a 2 year warranty, the Nitro Team Series is a safe bet.

for the three weeks i had this board, i had a good time on it. the pop is substantial and it was nice and light, so good on the freestyle end. within two weeks though, my sidewall delaminated in two places, behind both my bindings. i definitely couldn't keep riding on it that way so i had to return it. the edges were pretty sharp and would catch alot anyway, so i'm pleased with the new board, the gnu chb series with magne traction.

I was very excited to get this board, I rode the same deck (Nitro as well) for 12 years and it was time to get something contemporary. I got the 162, was torn whether to get the wide or not-I wear a size 11, got the regular stick and didn't have any toe/heel drag whatsoever. Don't listen to anyone who tells you that you should wax it first-the factory finish was lightning quick and the edges are super sharp. It's going to take getting used to, but it's definitely a kind board!!!! Thanks Manger for the sis deal
