The Surf-Inspired Powder Slayer
The 2026 Nidecker Mosquito is the shortest and most agile shape in Nidecker’s surf-inspired lineup. Designed for riders who want that loose, slashy feel in deep snow and slush, the Mosquito brings a whole new level of agility to tight tree runs, natural features, and spring conditions. Despite its stubby outline, it carves like a full-sized board thanks to an aggressive sidecut and camber underfoot.
The Surfy Camrock profile combines rocker in the nose with camber between the feet, offering solid edge hold with effortless float. The ultra-lightweight poplar and paulownia core is reinforced with carbon stringers and Triax Plus fiberglass, giving the Mosquito incredible pop and dampness at speed. From storm days to slushy park laps, this board is all about creative, surfy lines with no compromise on power.
