Nitro Optisym Snowboard | 2026

The 2026 Optisym is for all those snowboarders who enjoy fun, low-impact, buttery, friendly freestyle snowboarding, which means turning everything into a feature, even a groomed run or the knuckles of park landings, capable of switching from airtime tricks to flat ground tricks within seconds. This snowboarding style is probably the most relatable and achievable, so we decided to make a board specifically for this type of riding – for the dreamers – the friendly freestyle shredders!

Features

• Cam-Out Camber - Our Cam-Out Camber is basically a Trüe Camber with early and smooth transitions into tip and tail. The result is a fun and responsive board that turns on the spot and is forgiving, even after that 713.5° landing!
• Asym Twin - As one of many Nitro inventions, the Asym Twin shape is based on the knowledge that your knees don’t bend the same way in both directions and therefore, you cannot easily angle the board the same way in your toe- or heelside turns. A deeper heel sidecut radius compensates this, providing an even turning feel an more control when setting up for those relevant knuckle tricks.
• Dual Degressive Sidecut - The Dual Degressive Sidecut blends a smaller radius in the center with two larger ones in the tip and tail, making it loose and playful. Nitro´s most forgiving sidecut.
• Powercore II - The Powercore II is a tip-to-tail poplar wood core with additional beech wood stringers for unrivalled strength, smooth response and insane snap.
• Whiplash Core Profile - Our Whiplash Core Profile features reduced thickness between the inserts with added meat outside your feet for maximum ollie power, while maintaining a perfect press flex.
• Sintered Speed Formula II Base - Rocket science put to work! A nanotech wax formula deeply infused into our sintered base material makes the base surface lightning fast in all snow conditions. Highly tuned yet extremely durable, Speed Formula II Base technology is exclusively featured on Nitro high-end boards.
• Premium Extruded FH Base - Durability, speed and low maintenance all in one ultra-clear base material - our FH Base takes the abuse of any riding style – from the big mountain to the streets like no other.
• Bi-Lite Laminates - Our rider-trusted Bi-Lite Laminates are engineered for unrivalled strength, powerful style and refined board-feel.
• Ureshred Sidewalls - Just like Skate wheels and bushings, our Ureshred sidewalls are made from Polyurethane, which makes them highly resistant against impact and abrasion as well as giving them excellent dampening characteristics.
• Binding Compatibility - 2x4
• Standard Width - Standard Width boards offer the best in edge-to edge quickness and response while still providing enough platform for average boot sizes.
• Eco Materials - Water-based inks, recycled raw materials, and FSC-certified wood.
• Railkiller Edges - Your secret weapon for rails, rocks and longevity! With its unique edge profile and an impact resistance of more than 200% compared to a standard edge – the Railkiller Edge is twice as thick and twice as strong. This proprietary construction can take on any rail challenge. Take a file to them or ride them hard and wear them down naturally, this chunk of steel has enough meat for years of abuse.
