Snowboard - Nitro Squash 148 Don't be fooled by the shape, the Nitro Squash is a carving machine. Do you have cravings for powder, carving and maybe a park jump? The Nitro Squash is a snowboard with really fun shape. A Swallowtail and Trüe Camber combine to give you good float in powder but also an aggressive and powerful shape for carving on the piste. A big nose, a swallowtail and a quick sintered base make the Squash a very all-round board.
The Squash is lightweight with good float in powder while also being a carving machine. It's so much more than a powder board!
The board is waxed and tuned at the factory, ready for the mountain!

Shape: Tapered Swallowtail: Big nose and short tail which gives you a good float in pow but at the same time able to make aggressive turns. 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. Profile: Trüe Camber: Trüe Camber is good old standard camber, which provides the stability, and pop many shreds can ́t live without. The amount of snap and support you get from a cambered board is unrivalled by any other camber design. Our Trüe Camber varies between board models because each board is specifically designed for a certain terrain or type of riding, for example the Trüe Camber in our Pantera has a larger height for maximum response, while the Trüe Camber in our freestyle boards are lower to provide you with a more freestyle friendly flex, without losing the support and trust you need for stomping landings. Camber is Camber there is no point in over complicating it!
