The 2026 Nitro Dinghy is ideal for anyone with a larger footprint or just in general for an experienced rider who wants a shorter, wider board for ripping groomers or powder. It loves tree runs, deep pow days and wide open faces thanks to the True Camber profile, stiffer flex, and directional tapered shape. Offering a fun, surfy ride in all terrain, the Dingy is a true versatile snowboard, and like its namesake, is perfect for anyone looking for a wider, shorter board that can still push the status quo of snowboarding.
Board Type: Freeride - Powder
Freeride snowboards are built for steeper, off-piste terrain. These boards are ideal for aggressive riding and usually for more advanced riders.
Powder snowboards are designed for deep snow. Generally these boards feature a directional shape with a tapered tail for better float and ease of riding.
Flex: 7/10 (1=soft, 10=stiff)
Offering a balanced blend of flexibility and stiffness, mid-flex boards are versatile and suitable for all-mountain riding. They provide enough responsiveness for carving while maintaining some forgiveness for playful or casual riding.
Ability Level: Intermediate
Intermediate snowboards offer more responsiveness and stability at higher speeds, with a slightly stiffer flex for better control on varied terrain and more advanced manoeuvres.
Shape: Tapered Directional
A tapered directional snowboard features a shape where the tail is narrower than the nose, providing enhanced control and stability in deeper snow. This design improves floatation in powder and allows for smoother turns, making it ideal for freeride and backcountry riding. While it excels in one direction, the taper helps the board naturally guide you through challenging conditions.
Camber Type: Trüe Camber
The original camber type, unmatched for strong snap and powerful response. Each True Camber board in the Nitro range has its own special tweak to suit its intended terrain type, keeping the camber shape with a more specialised ride.
Profile: Reflex Core Profile
The Reflex Core Profile features a thinner core profile between your feet to improve handling and increases torsional flex. This allows you to turn your board easier and with more precision.
Width: Wide
Wide boards are for those with large boot sizes and provide extra flotation, reduced drag, and never feel clunky or cumbersome underfoot.
Sidecut: Progressive Sidecut
A larger radius sidecut in the nose that blends into a tighter radius in the tail, keeping your turns fast and catch-free.
Inserts: 2x4 Inserts
These offer a tighter hole pattern, allowing for more precise stance adjustments. They're common on modern boards and ideal for riders who want fine-tuned positioning and can be used with any binding with a standard or mini disk.
Board Construction
