$379 Intermediate to Expert Freestyle Jib Flat Camber Twin Shape The Nitro Swindle is a jib specialist with no camber or rocker. It's completely flat from tip to tail. You either love it or hate this tech. The Swindle of course is very easy to hit rails with what they call zero camber but the Swindle is lacking pop. All flat camber boards do to some extent when comparing them to hybrid rocker, some hybrid camber, continuous rocker and camber. The turning is different as well. It's very easy to make short turns. Wider turns feel different than camber or hybrid rocker as well. Doesn't matter that much if you are going from jib to jib but if you ever want to go other places than the jib park the Swindle is going to hang as well as some boards that are great at jibbing as well. So it's a tough call to say if you would like this board but it could be a good jib park only or quiver board.
The Swindle gets the job done, plain and simple. It has a true twin shape, slightly wider waist and snub nose and tail with a radial sidecut. This board is doing what was not possible in the past for construction and price. The Reflex Powercore II makes it ultra durable yet lightweight and soft. It has a long running length so you can size down and stay in control. It’s Zero camber and low swing weight makes it is easy to control at all speeds for technical riding. The Swindle also features our exclusive Scratch & Rip base that wears through like a skate deck, showing all your scars from session to session.
