Expert reviews 1
The Nitro Cannon is a large swallowtail board specialised for speed and powder. Cam-Out camber adds forgiveness to the stability of positive camber, and high-speed running and float are overwhelming. In exchange, it's a special-purpose board that gives up low-speed handling and everyday practicality.
Base shape (camber)
Hybrid camber
Nitro's Cam-Out Camber — traditional positive camber with the contact points mellowed to add forgiveness at low speed. A large swallowtail shape reduces the effective edge, so it handles well for its length.
StiffnessHigher means stiffer
Nitro's Directional All Terrain flex pattern, on the stiffer side of medium. It's stable at speed with pop alive and maintains hardpack edge hold.
Where it shines
Who it suits
For advanced to expert riders. It's hard to handle at low speed and focused on high-speed riding, so experience is needed.
