All-Freeride snowboard - Men -
The Santoku 2025 is an all-mountain snowboard for men from the Nitro brand aimed at advanced level riders.
The Elias Elhardtfreerider's favourite board, the Santoku is designed with a Powercore IIcore, the top of the range from Nitro, made from selected pieces and sourced from the finest poplar species. The Whiplash Core profile, meanwhile, provides more explosive ollie action thanks to greater thickness at the fasteners and on the outside of the supports. Its flex of 5/10 underlines its versatility and responsiveness.
What's more, its All-terrain Twin shape gives it great backcountry skills for having fun wherever there's a mountain and sending big tricks. The Dual Degressive cut combines two different curve radii to suit all riding styles. The board is more tolerant and more playful.
Finally, it proves to be very fast and responsive in every curve thanks to its classic Trüe Camberchamber. This quality is reflected in the Sintered Speed Formula 2, which is abrasion resistant and has a high wax absorption capacity. The Santoku is therefore very efficient on the piste.
The Santoku 2025 will help experienced riders to perform, whatever the conditions they encounter: it's a real Swiss Army knife for riding!

| Cambre - TRÜE | This standard camber provides the stability and pop that many riders can't live without. The amount of pop and support you get from a cambered board is unmatched by any other camber design. The Trüe Camber varies between board models as each board is specifically designed for a certain terrain or type of riding. |
| Shape - ALL-TERRAIN TWIN | Versatile, the Twin shape offers improved switchability through better glide, making it ideal for freestyle. |
| Core - POWERCORE II | : poplar wood core reinforced with two stringers (wooden strip) in beech from the nose to the tail of the board to increase rigidity and pop. |
| Topsheet - BI-LITE LAMINATES | : fibreglass applied in two directions perpendicular to each other to provide tolerance, precise snow feel and strength. |
| Sole - SINTERED SPEED FORMULA II BASE | Ultra-fast and durable sintered base. Used on top-of-the-range Nitro models. |
| DUAL DEGRESSIVE SIDECUT | The board's dimensions mix two different curve radii. A shorter radius in the centre and two identical longer radii at the nose and tail. Overall curve radius is playful, easy and tolerant. |
| WHIPLASH CORE PROFILE | the core is thickened at the bindings and on the outside of the supports for more ollie explosiveness. |
| DIAMOND BAND | Balanced layers of carbon fibre establish a new level of performance. More snap and liveliness to offer a smooth, powerful and effortless ride. |
Comme on s'y attendait, la Santoku est une planche de snowboard à tout faire.
Nous l'avons testé partout. Sur piste, elle s'avère performante. En hors-piste, rien à redire quant à son comportement. En park, la Santoku est performante et tourne vite et bien. En gros, son terrain de jeu n'a pas de limite.
Nous aimons les sensations qu'elle procure : sur les pistes, en dehors des stations mais aussi en park. Elle est très joueuse et nous invite sans cesse à lancer des rotations.
Pour résumer, c'est un produit très polyvalent. Si vous ne voulez qu'une board, c'est celle-ci qu'il vous faut !
Les Plus : passe-partout, efficace dans n'importe quelles conditions, joueuse et réactive
Les Moins : R.A.S.
