Nitro Blacklight Mid Wide Snowboard Review

$649
Advanced to Expert All Mountain
Camber Directional Twin Shape
This is an aggressive mid/wide board for going big that is at a higher price. This is the hard carving camber version but they do have a hybrid rocker version that is more of an all condition ride than the Blacklight. If you don't mind working harder to stay a float in powder and love the pop that you get from carving then the Blacklight camber might work well for you.

The Blacklight was built for speed. Hands down, there isn’t a better-built board to perform an all out attack on the mountain.
