No subject to promotional offersThe Alpha APX 2024 is a snowboard from Nidecker. This All-Mountain model is a board for advanced to expert men.
Like theAlpha, this version APX has a front spatula curved like the belly of a penguin and a tail slightly hollowed out like the tail of a bird of prey. These two innovations mean it's very comfortable in powder, easy to lift off the ground and retains maximum manoeuvrability. Compared to its sister, it has been lightened and improved to push you ever further towards limitless performance and divine sensations.
To achieve this, it preserves its directional Shape Surfy Camrock with a camber underfoot that facilitates edge grip and good on-track ability. The ends also make it easier to start bends. On the other hand, this time it is equipped with the core Light Corecore, the lightest of the brand thanks to its Paulownia content, but also highly responsive with lots of pop thanks to the Poplar wood, and finally more durable thanks to its higher composition of Beech known for its resistance to impacts and vibrations.
The two pronounced rockers, which are very useful in freestyle, ensure safe landings both forwards and backwards. What's more, its topsheet Absorbnid and carbon fibre inserts absorb snow irregularities and prevent the board from hitting your legs.
These dynamic fibres are combined with a construction Sandwich Nidactive that will transfer much more power to the rails.
In short, we've retained the magic of theAlpha but we've made it lighter and more responsive to the demands of hostile terrain!

L'Alpha APX 2024 est une très belle découverte de cette saison. Sa grande polyvalence n'est pas à prouver, elle passe partout et elle le fait bien. En poudreuse elle déjauge facilement et est très maniable. Sur piste sa longue carre effective permet de carver puissamment. Elle reste très stable en permanence et sa semelle amène une grande prise de vitesse, de quoi faire la course avec vos amis skieurs et se faire payer le vin chaud en fin de journée.
Son gros pop lui donne un comportement incisif et est très utile en park pour se mettre des gros vols et envoyer de nouvelles rotations.
Les Plus : Polyvalente, légère, réactive, parfaite pour s'éclater !
Les Moins : R.A.S
