Nitro Runaway Snowboard Review

Hybrid Rocker Twin Shape

2012 Good Wood Award Winner
This is Nitro's attempt at keeping up with Mervin and Never Summer in the hybrid rocker game.  This hybrid rocker shape is very similar to how never summer makes their board and so is the side cut is as well. That makes this a board that has pretty good pop.  We still feel never summer has the advantage on build and longevity but this isn't a bad choice if you are looking for something softer than the Never Summer Pandora and love the jib park. This is a fun board that makes for an easy forgiving ride just about anywhere in the park.

Details
Gullwing Camber camber

The Runaway is built for the female rider that is a park slayer. The Powercore II for strength and pop, combined with Bi-Lite laminates make it light and forgiving. The twin shape and urban flex make this board a perfect fit for any female that wants to get technical, yet still keep it fun. Our Gullwing camber places the camber under the foot for stability towards the tip and tail and reverse camber between the bindings to relieve pressure on the contact points. It will amp up your confidence when learning new tricks this season.
