GAMMA APX SNOWBOARD - 2025

The Gamma APX is a twin shape with a difference: symmetrical nose to tail but asymmetrical edge to edge. Since clean turns are harder to execute on your heels, we've given this side a tighter sidecut, resulting in a board that feels super balanced in any direction. 3D spooning at the tips lets you enjoy looser butters and a surfy feel when switching edge – and with a faster base, upgraded sidewalls and extra carbon, the APX packs even more creative punch.

SHAPE

• Asym Twin: Asymmetrical snowboards are designed to accommodate our body's natural asymmetry when sliding sideways. They have a shorter and/or deeper sidecut on the heel edge. These features compensate for the different motion required for leaning backward onto the heel edge, making it easier to initiate turns.
• Camber Profile: Positive Camber is the bedrock for performance snowboards. Its extra grip and powerful response have made it the default choice for riders looking for optimum carving performance. The secret to Nidecker's advanced camber is the addition of 8 to 10 cm flat transitions at the contact points, delivering the ultimate in precision, edge hold and stability.
• Evolution Nose: Nidecker's 3D curved nose helps the board roll smoothly from edge to edge, creating a natural, surf-like flow through each turn.
• Drop Out: The Drop Out is derived from the shape of a bird of prey's tail. It generates more control when up on edge, but also allows for extra agility and deep, tight turns.

CONSTRUCTION

• Power Rails: An exclusive Nidecker construction inspired by surfboards. The topsheet is wrapped over a rounded wood core to meet a thin sidewall. It's a beautiful finish that's even more stunning to ride, delivering instant drive through the edge.
• Absorbnid Topsheet: An innovative top layer designed to absorb unwanted vibrations. Enjoy a smooth ride with less fatigue.
• Inserts: 6 rows of inserts at 2 cm intervals gives you maximum choice of stance width and works with any binding on the market.
• Biax Plus Fiberglass: Biax Plus features a classic 90° weave but uses more glass to enhance power transfer. It’s super responsive and ideal for riders seeking a stiffer and more agile board that's still playful.
• Light Core: Nidecker's lightest ever core is composed of three wood types, including featherweight paulownia and super responsive poplar. Hardwood beech stringers down the centre enhance the overall strength and boost pop.
• N-9000 Base: A lightning quick sintered base made from super dense material with a high carbon content to minimise friction. Wax it on the regs for race-level performance.
• Pop Carbon Plus: Pop Carbon is deployed on both sides of the core and from tip to tail, beefing up the flex. Ideal for aggressive riders who want snappy edge response, tons of pop and a smooth ride at high speeds.
