Volta 2023
The new Nitro Volta 2023 is a touring snowboard for women from intermediate to advanced levels. But make no mistake, the Volta is no low performing board and isn't for inexperienced off-piste riders! ^
The Nitro Volta is the most affordable board on the market which will allow many snowboarders to learn how to ride a touring snowboard. But don't skip any steps, especially those of safety, even if the Volta will push you to look for new spots and to take on increasingly difficult routes. With its flat camber Flat/Out Rocker, the Nitro Volta offers a good powder flotation. The grip is improved thanks to the Power Pods on the heel and forefoot supports.
Made to take you off the beaten track, the Volta 2023 is equipped with a Premium Extruded FH Base which offers good glide but above all is very easy to maintain. Yes, the guys at Nitro know you pretty well and know that sometimes you might scrape accross some sharp stones!
The Volta 2023 will have you fall in love with touring and you won't ever want to go back to the resort to queue for the chairlift!
Turn radius/ Sidecuts / Set back :
151 cm: 8.5-6.5 m/ 281- 242- 281 mm/ -25
145 cm: 8.5-6.5 m/ 273- 238- 273 mm/ -20
Camber:
Flat/Out (Flat camber+Rocker): flat camber under the feet and rocker under the tip and tail for easier turning and reduced edge control problems. The rocker elements at the nose and tail offer buoyancy, for a playful experience on pressed snow and a more tolerant board.
Shape:
Directional Splitboard: Classic shape with the nose slightly longer than the tail for float on powder. A directional shape is one in which the nose is wider than the tail for better corner entry and exit, stability at high speeds, and improved flotation.
Radial: the simplest and most widespread turn radius: a single, versatile turn radius.
Power Pods: The width at the heel and toe supports is wider. The result is a more responsive board that bites faster into the ice with improved grip. This technology offsets the edge of the rocker, so that you can firmly lock into any moves. The Power Pods act as power steering.
Width: Standard
Flex:
5/10 All-terrain - Rigid Flex. Versatile flex for guaranteed responsiveness and all-mountain pop.

La planche Volta 2023 est un splitboard très intéressante et plutôt ludique. Elle s'en sort parfaitement dans la fraîche et la neige souple. Son cambre plat et son flex de 6/10 ne permettent pas d'aller chercher des spots difficiles où la glace est plus présente que la neige, mais en même temps la Volta n'est pas destinée à ce genre personne givrée !
La Volta 2023 est en réalité la meilleure option pour débuter le snowboard de rando. Elle permettra d'apprendre les bases de la randonnée et de se faire plaisir dans de bonnes conditions. Facile de prise en main, la Volta 2023 est synonyme de plaisir à la descente. On ne fait pas un chrono à la montée mais elle nous emmène au même point d'arrivée que si on avait un split full carbone... Et c'est ce qu'on lui demande : nous ouvrir les portes de la descente gavée de poudreuse !
Agréable à la montée, et facile à la descente, cette planche est parfaite pour les riders qui recherchent une planche complète sans exploser leurs budget.
Les Plus : Prise en main facile, agréable a la montée et facile à la descente.
Les Moins : Manque de rigidité en spatule sur certaines neiges
