NITRO 38 Special 2016

Refusing to be pinned down to one corner of the mountain, the Nitro .38 Special Snowboard represents a modern take on all-mountain assault. Featuring a stiffer flex for power through crud and attack windbuff with speed, the .38 Special let's you hang on loosely without worrying about the unwanted bit thanks to the Roof Chop Camber profile. This directional twin is designed to take you all over the mountain; from mornings on the peak, to lunchtime slush laps with the crew, and afternoon park laps the .38 Special will keep you rockin' late into the fading light with ease.

PRODUCT DETAILS

ROCKER TYPE

Roof Chop Camber –  In an effort to build the smoothest-performing boards on the mountain, Nitro designed the Roof Chop Camber: A low positive camber with a flattened center zone provides unmatched pop and even edge pressure without bite.

FLEX

Mountain Flex –  Designed to handle any type of terrain you drop into. From all day park laps, waist deep pow, and hardpack laps, these boards were designed to give you the stability, flex, and response you need for whatever you feel like riding.

SHAPE

Directional Twin

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.

CORE

Powerlite Core: Lightweight Performance and Pop –  The highest grade of ultra-lightweight poplar wood in Nitro's Powerlite core makes for the perfect ride with lots of pop and unmatched strength at a minimum weight. 

Reflex Core Profile: Enhanced Profile Control –  A thinner core profile between your feet improves handling and increases torsional flex, allowing you to steer your board through a turn with ease.

LAMINATES

Bi-Lite Laminates: Forgiving and Strong –  Nitro's rider-trusted Bi-Lite Laminates are engineered for unrivaled strength, powerful style, and refined board-feel.

BASE

Sintered Speed Formula HD Base –  Utilizing a new base material compound, Nitro has been able to achieve higher abrasion resistance, increased wax absorption, and higher on-snow speeds. All in an ultra clear package for extra crisp graphics.
