These have been specifically orientated to react faster with steeper positive foot angles on both the front and back feet, giving the board faster turn initiation and exit and allowing the rider to really drive the board into and out of the turn.To step up the torsional flex an extra level, the Donuts features a top sheet created from bamboo veneer. Finally to ensure that the speed of the Donuts matches its high end construction, Nidecker fit it with a 9900 base. This is the fastest base material on the market and finishes off this totally awesome snowboard.Additional informationSizeFF Width*Waist WidthBF Width*Sidecut RadiusRider weight154cm26.526.48.1554-77kg158cm26.726.68.359-82kg*(FF) Front Foot Width * (BF) Back Foot Width

Rider Style experienced riders who are looking for a stable high-speed board that kills it in the pow and on the piste. Shape OverviewAs the hard-charging, big mountain board of the Shaper series, the aptly named Gun utilises a fully directional powder/piste focussed shape. The extended nose profile short cut-off tail and 19mm of taper, deliver the perfect balance of lift and float in the pow with a predictable and stable feel through the turn. Complementing this innovative shape is the Vario Power Grip sidecut. This is formed by combining a deeper sidecut in front of the insert packs with a shallow sidecut under the feet and a straight section in the centre. This increases pressure into the most important parts of the edges adding control and response in all conditions. ProfileKey to the Gun's unique surf-inspired ride is the Shaper Series specific Fusion Rocker Camber profile. This overall rocker profile blends an extended transition area in the front of the board with traditional camber under the front foot and a more aggressive Ripsaw Camber under the back foot. This unique profile delivers effortless float in the nose, but more importantly, it adds a powerful and dynamic drive to the board, providing that trench laying on-piste performance. ConstructionInternally the Gun doesn't hold back when it comes to high-end construction and heading this up is the NS SuperLight wood core. This lightweight core combines a custom blend of wood species to create one of the lightest and most durable cores on the market. This is then reinforced with Never Summers advanced structural layers formed from a combination of playful Bi-Lite glass and STS pre-tensioned glass running the length of the effective edge. These create a solid and stable ride while still allowing the board to be a little bit more progressive through the middle. Now as the Gun is all about high performance and stability, it utilises the powerful Carbon Max Laminate technology. This combines an advanced top and bottom carbon matrix to maximise response and strength where it's needed most, resulting in a lightweight yet powerful configuration that provides customised torsional rigidity and energy transfer without sacrificing control. BaseThis super-fast, durable sintered base has been designed specifically for high-performance boards. Just the right amount of graphite has been added making the DURASURF XT SINTeReD 5501 BASe the fastest base in the line.Additional information Length WaistWidth Sidecut Taper effectiveedge TipWidth Tailwidth MinStance MaxStance Setback WeightRange 169 26.6cm Vario8.82m 1.9cm 118cm 32.3cm 30.4cm 51cm 63cm 2cm 170-220lbs+/ 77-100kg+
