The 2025 Nitro Optisym was inspired by all those snowboarders who enjoy turning everything, even a groomed run, into a playground, switching from airtime tricks to flat ground tricks within seconds.
This snowboarding style is probably the most relatable and achievable freestyle snowboarding - which is why Nitro decided to make a board for the flatlands - the dreamers - the Optisym.
Equipped with a brand new heelside core technology, called the Powerwall, which provides more durability and strength to the heel sidewall and more agility when on your heel edge, something unique to the asymmetrical snowboard shape philosophy. The Optisym´s mid-wide shape reduces toe and heel drag, which is essential for progressing your carves, butters, and flatland tricks. The overall asymmetrical twin shape and Dual Degressive sidecut allows for endless control when carving and navigating the entire mountain. The Cam-Out Camber and Whiplash Core Profile allow for quick and high ollie power while maintaining a flex pattern in the nose and tail that will enable you to hold butters like a pro. If you are looking for a mid-wide freestyle board for side hits, flatlanding, carving, and jibbing any mountain - then the Optisym is the board you need to make your future bright! Let the groomer season begin!
SPECS
Terrian: Freestyle / All Mountain
Board Shape: Asym Twin
Dual Degressive Sidecut - This sidecut blends a smaller radius in the centre with two larger ones in the tip and tail, making it lose and playful. Nitro's most forgiving sidecut.
Flex: 5/10
Urban Flex - these ultra flexiable boards can be tweaked any way you like, from rails to butter tricks and they won't wash you out.
Camber:
Cam-Out Camber – A classic camber shape with early and smooth transitions into tip and tail. The result is a fun and responsive board that turns on the spot and is forgiving, even after that 713.5° landing!
Base:
Premium Extruded FH Base – Durable, speed and low maintanence all in one ultra clear base material. Nitro's FH base takes the abuse of the rail and urban riding like no other.
Core:
PowerCore II - A performance driven core with tip to tail Poplar wood and additional Beech Wood stringers. The result: Unmatched strength, smooth response, and a tonne of snap.
Whiplash Core Profile - reduces thickness between the inserts with thicker sections outside your feet for huge ollie power while maintaining a comfortable press flex.
Bi-Lite Laminates – Nitro's rider-trusted Bi-Lite Laminates are engineered for a powerful riding style and a refined board-feel.
Other Features:
2 x 4 Insert Pattern
Railkiller edges - Edges designed specifically to handle the impact and stress of freestyle riding, they offer more than 200% impact resistance over a standard edge.
Ureshred Sidewalls - New on all Nitro park boards, the sidewalls are made from Polyurethane, making them highly resistant against impact and abrasion as well as giving them excellent dampening characteristics.
