2014 Snowboard Video Preview – Pro Picks

Tom Copsey — Wed, 06 Mar 2013 13:12:58 +0000

We bumped into a bunch of pre shredders cruising the halls of ISPO this year, so we whacked a camera in their faces and asked them to give us the lowdown on their favourite board. Check out what 2014 decks have Gigi Rüf, Jeremy Jones, JP Solberg, Eero Ettala and DCP hyped…

Ride With… Marcus Kleveland

Tom Copsey — Thu, 21 Feb 2013 09:02:16 +0000

Check out what happened when a bunch of groms got to ride with one of the world’s most promising supergroms on Ktzsteinhorn

Usually, the ‘chance’ to ride with a 13-year-old grom might have you rolling your eyes as you contemplate a day of babysitting, however in the case of doublecorking Norwegian phenomenon Marcus Kleveland it’s an opportunity to learn from a kid who’s been alive for less time than you’ve been snowboarding and is already better than you could ever dream of being.

Actually, though, this Ride with Kleveland day put on by Nitro and Kitzsteinhorn was a chance for other talented groms to rip the park with MK, get some pointers and show off their own emerging talents. Cue a day of park laps, pow slashes and sessioning a host of single hits.

Tom Copsey — Tue, 08 Jan 2013 11:27:17 +0000

Nitro kick off another series of One Run with this top-to-bottom line through Bear Mountain’s epic park by Austin Smith. We don’t know what’s more impressive – Austin’s skills or the sheer expanse of Bear’s park…

One thing’s for sure – Austin’s got good legs.

Best Free Snowboard Movies of 2012 – #3 – Nitro’s Hyped!

Uli Köhler — Sun, 30 Dec 2012 08:40:06 +0000

Of all the free snowboard movies of 2012, Nitro Snowboards’ full length team flick, Hyped! was probably the one making us want to go snowboarding most. It is a great combination of stellar riding (by the likes of Eero Ettala, Austin Smith, Nils Arvidsson, Justin Bennee and more) and fun stuff on and off the hill that people can relate to. And this is what it’s all about, init? Or as we said earlier this year when the flick dropped:

This is snowboarding as it should be: fun shredding and bangers, and if this doesn’t make you want to strap in and shred you should probably check your pulse. Good job, Nitro. Mission accomplished!

The World Snowboard Tour are ramping up for another season of hyper-progressive contest shredding, and to celebrate the new season of events have teamed up with Nitro Snowboards and renowned artist Mike Parillo to produce this limited edition steed. We have two to be won – get involved…

This 156 is based on Nitro’s popular T1.5, which is a “high end park board that suits every rider trying to progress and who one day might reach for the World Tour Trophy.” It’s basically the perfect kind of stick for anyone wanting to chuck freestyle moves anywhere on the mountain, and it’s topped off by artwork from Parillo that is intended to portray “the emotion that comes with winning the trophy.”

“But how do I win this,” we hear you cry. Just answer the question below and we’ll pick two correct entries at random and ship the board their way. Due to shipping costs, this competition is only open to people with an address in Europe. Sorry, citizens of the rest of the world.
