Nitro Banker Snowboard 2024
The Quiver Banker Snowboard hauls in and out of banked slaloms, groomers, and pow fields no matter what mountain range you find yourself racing in. For years Bryan and the team have wanted a lightweight board that can be their go-to turning and burning board, and this is what the team has engineered - a board so powerful and fast you will need a strap for your hat. The Banker´s Directional and Mid-Wide shape allows you to lay into turns like you do it for a living. In addition, the Trüe Camber and Sintered Speed Formula II Base will provide you with speed and power right out of the gates. So, if you are looking for an everyday all-mountain speed machine with a passion for ripping groomer turns or high speeds through the trees, then the Banker was designed to help you go faster than you have ever imagined!
Technology
- Trüe Camber: Good old standard camber, which provides the stability and pop many shredders can't live without. The amount of snap and support you get from a cambered board is unrivaled.
- Directional All Terrain Flex: Nitro's most versatile flex pattern, combining their signature all mountain pop with smooth response, allowing you to tear up the entire mountain.
- Flex Rating: 8/10 (1=Soft, 10=Stiff)
- Progressive Sidecut: 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.
- Power Core II: A tip-to-tail poplar wood core with beech wood stringers offers unrivaled strength, smooth response, and insane snap.
- Reflex Core Profile: A thinner core profile between your feet improves handling and increases torsional flex, allowing you to steer your board through a turn with ease.
- Bi-Lite Laminates: Nitro's rider-trusted Bi-Lite Laminates are engineered for a powerful riding style and a refined board-feel.
- Sintered Speed Formula HD Base: Nitro utilizes a new base material compound to achieve higher abrasion resistance, increased wax absorption, and higher on-snow speeds.
