Boards Ultralight
Sizes / 158 163 163XL 167XL

This absolute tour-de-force of technology represents all of our knowhow gathered in to one board. Every now and then a board comes along that changes everything, changes the way you look at performance, changes the way you look at snowboard construction, and changes the way you look at technology. Well, the Ultralight is that board. One look at it in the flesh redefines what you have come to expect from a snowboard. Aimed at riders who are looking for a high performance freeride board, it utilizes construction techniques that most manufacturers only dream about, and includes carbon fiber, Kevlar, a welded wooden core, and a high speed 9000 base. Swiss-made performance for the connoisseur, who knows exactly what he wants under his feet.

Features
Camber
- Freeride CamRock ®

The CamRock Freeride will give you everything you need for your backcountry line. There is more rocker in the nose to add float and improved maneuverability, matched with a smaller amount of camber under foot to keep your snowboard responsive. A small amount of rocker in the tail will give you stability and maneuverability.

Shape
- Directional

A purely directional board is best for all-mountain freeriding. The nose is longer and wi¬der than the tail, giving you plenty of control in any terrain, and the stance is set back to help you float above the pow. Plus, we stiffened the tail to help snap you out of turns and keep your speed up.

Exclusive Nidecker
- 3D N Concept

Our 3D N Concept takes snowboard construction to the next level, providing the rider with the ulti¬mate feeling of control: Inde¬pendent Torsion Flex. Combining carbon fiber, Kevlar, and a host of visionary compo¬site materials into a hyper-responsive control matrix, it’s the future…in the form of a snowboard.

- Ultimate Grip

Ultimate Grip (UG) will allow you to ride hard, artificial, and/or icy snow as you have never done before. The serrated edges maximize the edge contact area with the snow and mean that your grip increases by 200% over a regular board in the same turn. How does it work? The best comparison is to a normal knife and a serrated knife. The serrated knife cuts far easier and requires less force than the normal knife. Not only that, but if you want them at maximum efficiency, you need to sharpen the normal knife far more often than the serrated knife. So...join the UG revolution! You’ll never go back.

- More safety with less effort.
- More fun due to less fatigue.
- Holds its edge longer without sharpening.

- Freeflex 2.0

In this patented technology, the nose and tail of the board are specially molded in a very thin composite material that is laye¬red with a proprietary elastomeric covering. This cancels out vibrations and helps provide a unique light feel in transitions, due to its reduced thickness. Free Flex 2.0 has one of the lowest swing weights in the industry, meaning less chatter for you.

- Shock Absorber

Our Shock Absorber is a specially designed elastomeric interlayer, which offers additional comfort to the rider, while eliminating vibrations.

Core
- Welded Wood Core

The most eco-friendly and technologically advanced way to make a wood core. The wood laminates are not glued, but bonded together through a com¬plex process of friction and vibration. Nidecker is the only company in the world to master the technology of welding wood.

Fiber
- Multi Carbon

This fiberglass, produced especially for Nidecker, allows more effective edge response and overall control. We added a bi-directional carbon fabric to allow for more finely tuned responsiveness. This is the premium fiber composite used in snowboards today.

- Multi Fiber

The Multi is the best way between vibration and reactivity. Nidecker’s ’s exclusive light Triax which is made with pride in Switzerland. This laminate incorporates a multi layered, multi axis fiberglass which is stitched together resulting in a straight fiber laminate. Incorporated with this are dual Carbon and Kevlar Fiber beams which work with the fiberglass, creating prolonged and unequalled longitudinal snap and liveliness.

Base
- 9000

Our 100% eco-friendly base is the fastest base avai¬lable in the market. Produced with carbon nanopar¬ticles, it has a very dense molecular structure, making it our most durable base material.

- Diamond

Stone & Diamond structured base on 2 axes to maximize glide and to optimize the dura-bility of the base.

- Die-Cut

Die-cut is a system in which we cut out different colors & shapes of base material. We then join the pieces together to create bright & very ap- pealing base designs.

Standard Nidecker
- Alu Protect

State-of-the-art, high-strength aluminum tip and tail protectors. Elastomer is bonded to the aluminum to absorb vibrations.
