Nidecker The Smoke Snowboard
The Nidecker The Smoke Snowboard is a mid-length, surf-inspired machine built for riders who crave long, drawn-out carves and effortless float. With a setback stance and extra volume in the nose, it powers through open bowls, chutes, and groomers like a clean, shoulder-high wave. Designed for smooth, stylish turns and laid-back power, The Smoke is your ticket to soulful lines all season long.
Product Details
Rocker Type
Surfy Camrock – Features extended rocker at the nose and regular camber through the rest of the board. Together with a shorter tail, it allows you to glide over bumps or pow and initiate turns off the back foot for a unique, surf-like ride.
Flex
Flex Rating – 8 (1 Soft - 10 Stiff)
Core
Light Core – Nidecker's lightest core is composed of three wood types, including featherweight paulownia and super responsive poplar. Hardwood beech stringers down the center enhance the overall strength and boost pop.
Laminates
Power Rails – An exclusive Nidecker construction inspired by surfboards. The topsheet is wrapped over a rounded wood core to meet a thin sidewall. It's a beautiful finish that's even more stunning to ride, delivering instant drive through the edge.
Triax Plus – Oriented 45 degrees to the board and contains different glass densities. This provides consistent torsional flex, better pop, and more reactivity on every turn.
Pop Carbon Plus – Pop Carbon is deployed on both sides of the core and from tip to tail, beefing up the flex. Ideal for aggressive riders who want snappy edge response, tons of pop and a smooth ride at high speeds.
Base
N-9000 – A lightning quick sintered base made from super dense material with a high carbon content to minimize friction. Wax it on the regs for race-level performance.
Topsheet
Absorbnid – This innovative top layer has been developed to absorb unwanted vibrations allowing for responsive and dynamic boards that still give you a smooth and comfortable ride.

Terrain
All-Mountain All-mountain snowboards are designed for exploring the whole mountain. They are your go-to for a snowboard that will do anything. They feel at home on groomers, powder, park runs and almost anything in between. The vast majority of snowboarders choose all-mountain boards for their great versatility. If you’re just getting started or unsure of exactly what you need, an all-mountain snowboard is a great choice. Freeride Freeride snowboards are designed for the rider that spends most of the day off groomed runs and in backcountry terrain. They typically have a stiffer flex and are ridden in longer sizes than freestyle snowboards. Freeride snowboards often feature a directional shape that is designed to perform optimally in one direction.

Flex Rating:
Stiff

Flex Rating
Stiff The amount a snowboard flexes varies significantly between boards. Snowboard flex ratings are not necessarily standardized across manufacturers, so the flex may vary from brand to brand. Many manufacturers will give a number rating ranging from 1-10, 1 being softest and 10 being stiffest. Here at evo we have standardized the manufacturers' number ratings to a feel rating ranging from soft to very stiff. Generally you will find flex ratings of 1-2 as soft, 3-5 as medium, 6-8 as stiff, and 9-10 as very stiff. Flex ratings and feel may ultimately vary from snowboard to snowboard.
