Product Info

Introducing the Nidecker Thruster. Nidecker has poured decades of experience shaping performance snowboards into this new all-mountain charger. Combining elements of their previous best-selling models, the Platinum and Rave, with the latest in 3D design, the Thruster is made for aggressive high speed carving. It’s built on the lightest core in the Nidecker line, with a powerful camber profile and a super dense N-9000 sintered base that minimizes drag. Trust us when we say this thing is blazingly fast. SideKick tips raise the wide points off the snow, making it smoother to engage the edges. Combine that with a 20 mm setback the nose will plow through deep snow and crud with ease. Added carbon and an Absorbnid topsheet deliver a stable, chatter-free ride even when your eyes are watering. The name of the game here is control. It’s a missile, sure, but it’s laser-guided.

TECHNICAL SPECS
Positive Camber – Positive Camber is the bedrock for performance snowboards. Its extra grip and powerful response have made it the default choice for riders looking for optimum carving performance. Nidecker adds 8 to 10 cm flat transitions at the contact points to their camber profile, delivering the ultimate in precision, edge hold and stability.

N-9000 Base – Produced with carbon nanoparticles, the N-9000 has a very dense molecular structure, which makes it the fastest and most durable base material.

Light Core – Features three different wood types in a perfect combination of paulownia for lightness, poplar for pop and responsiveness, and hardwood beech stringers along the edges to increase core durability, pop and protection from edge impacts.

Triax Plus Glass – The Triax laminate is oriented at 45° to the board, and contains different glass densities. This provides consistent torsional flex, better pop, and more reactivity on every turn.

Pop Carbon – Strategic placement of carbon fiber from the tail to the rear inserts, and from the nose to the front inserts, resulting in a more reactive board, with increased pop and stiffness. Its vibration dampening qualities make it ideal for more aggressive riding in all conditions.

Absorbnid Topsheet – Absorbnid is an innovative top layer designed to absorb unwanted vibrations. This allows for a more responsive, dynamic board that will still give you a smooth and fatigue free ride.

SIDE Kick Tech – SideKick lifts your edges at the widest points of the nose and tail resulting in increased float in powder, smoother riding in rough terrain and effortless turn initiation.

Carving Machine – This deck is built on the direct roots of the Nidecker’s carving lineage. Lay it out and feel the centrifugal force build.

2+1 Year Manufacture Warranty – Extend your two year Nidecker warranty to three years by registering your board.
