2027 Nitro Cannon Snowboard
The 2027 Nitro Cannon is an iconic tapered swallowtail built for riders who want maximum float in deep snow without giving up the fun of carving groomers. Its Cam-Out Camber profile combines responsive camber with smooth transitions into the tip and tail, while the Progressive Sidecut pairs a catch-free nose with powerful acceleration out of turns. The Powercore II uses a tip-to-tail Poplar core with Beech stringers for strength, response, and snap, while Bi-Lite Laminates keep the ride balanced and controlled. With its long swallowtail shape, mid-wide platform, and fast Sintered EcoSpeed HD Base, the Cannon delivers a unique blend of powder float, carving performance, and big-board fun.
