21/22 season review
This review does not directly cover the 26/27 model you are viewing. Specifications and ride feel may vary by season.
The Nidecker Venus is a flagship all-mountain deck for intermediate-and-above women riders, delivering versatile performance covering all terrain from powder to carving to park through a CamRock profile. Premium materials including reinforced Vibrac fibres, a Triax+ weave and an N5000 base give it power, precision and responsiveness all at once, and powder performance too is excellent, concentrating Nidecker's long-accumulated know-how.
It's the optimal choice for women riders who want one board to ride every day all season.
A closer look
These descriptions and scores are linked to this review. They may differ from manufacturer specifications.
Board profile
The profile describes the curve of the board when viewed from the side.
Hybrid rocker
A CamRock profile that provides camber's power and aggression in-bounds while applying rocker at the tips to deliver float and playfulness in deep powder — a hybrid construction.
How stiff is it?Closer to 10 means stiffer. It does not mean better performance.
Swiss-engineered reinforced Vibrac fibre and a Triax+ fibreglass weave give high torsional stiffness, while a vibration-absorbing topsheet and blended wood core provide power and precision — a medium-hard flex.
