BETA APX SNOWBOARD - 2025

The Beta APX adds top-of-the-line materials to an organic silhouette to create the ultimate backcountry dart. Plenty of volume in the nose provides surf-like float, while extra carbon, thinner sidewalls and a faster base bring even more speed and precision. A favorite of Japanese soul shredder Shin Biyajima, this is the perfect board for riders who enjoy following their instincts in natural terrain – exploring new lines and subtle new ways to turn.

SHAPE

• Directional: With over 50 years of proven performance, directional shapes have a significantly longer nose than tail. They excel at floating through powder and offer better glide, carving and stability in variable snow.
• Surfy CamRock Profile: Surfy CamRock features extended rocker at the nose and regular camber through the rest of the board. Together with the shorter tail we deploy on boards with this profile, it allows you to glide over bumps or pow and initiate turns off the back foot for a unique, surf-like ride.
• Evolution Nose: A 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.
• Triax Plus Fiberglass: Fiberglass is woven in three directions at 45° for maximum stiffness. The result of extensive testing with our riders and engineers, Triax Plus uses different glass densities above and below the core to deliver more consistent torsional flex, better pop, and lightning response.
• 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 center 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.
• Inserts: 6 rows of inserts at 2 cm intervals gives you maximum choice of stance width and works with any binding on the market.
