The Nidecker Escape is a true all mountain board that is comfortable bombing runs, popping in the trees or taking a lap of the park. It is a directional almost twin board with only a 10mm setback and 2mm taper but looks more directional due to the blunt shaping of the tail and the diamond nose. The Camrock camber profile uses traditional camber with rocker in the nose and tail, this shortens the contact edge making it more agile and also improves the flow in the soft pow. The Escape is classed as a mid soft by Nidecker but we would say it is a bit stiffer than that sitting as a good mid flex and with the extra carbon in the nose and tail then there is plenty of pop to go around and stability at high speeds.
If you are looking for your next all mountain slaying board then you can't go wrong with the Nidecker Escape. If you spend most of your time bombing the runs, pow and dipping into the trees then it's perfect and it is quite happy with some park laps too!
Nidecker Escape Mens All Mountain Snowboard Key Features:
- The Escape's directional twin shape features a blunt tail and diamond nose that's super versatile from groomers to pow.
- Carbon fiber is positioned between the inserts and the nose and tail – boosting ollie power and dampening chatter.
- CamRock mixes classic camber between the bindings with rocker at the nose and tail. By shortening the contact edge, the board feels a little more relaxed – whether you're initiating turns or landing tricks.
- Construction Premium Sandwich - A step up from our standard sandwich construction that adds carbon stringers for more pop, quicker edge response and improved shock absorption
- Topsheet Absorbnid - An innovative top layer designed to absorb unwanted vibrations. Enjoy a smooth ride with less fatigue.
- Inserts 4/2-5 - 5 rows of inserts at 2 cm intervals is the industry standard pattern and works with any binding on the market.
- Fiberglass Triax Plus: Fiberglass is woven in three directions at 45° for maximum stiffness. The result of extensive testing with our riders and engineers, Triax Plus uses different glass densities above and below the core to deliver more consistent torsional flex, better pop, and lightning response.
- Woodcore Master Core - Our Master Core is the culmination of decades of experimentation in materials and woodcraft. Two species of wood (poplar and paulownia) are combined to give the best of all worlds: light, strong and responsive.
- Base N-7000 - Developed exclusively for Nidecker, the N-7000 has all the durability and low-maintenance glide of an extruded base but is as hard as a sintered base. We call it sintruded. You'll call it fast.
- Added Carbon Pop Carbon - Carbon fiber is positioned between the inserts and the nose and tail – boosting ollie power and dampening chatter.
- Matte Finish - A tacticle topsheet graphic you'll want to stroke.
- Carving Machine High performance carving boards that turn like they're on rails.
- Diecut Base - The base graphic is pieced together like a jigsaw for maximum impact.
- Overprint - Layered topsheet artwork that adds depth and texture to the graphic.
