Nidecker Escape Men's Snowboard
Do you want to get the most out of the slopes, or go beyond them into the powder and then maybe take a few laps in the snowpark? No problem. The Escape range is made for the ultimate all-mountain experience. The CamRock flex makes changing from edge to edge a breeze, and with the stance moved 10mm to the tail, you'll easily overcome deeper snow and bumps. Carbon reinforcement, premium lamination and N-7000 base are indicators that you'll rock it on the mountain.
Specifications & Shape
- Flex: medium stiff 2/4
- Destination: Resort 4/4, Pow 4/4, Park 3/4
- Carving Machine - a label that warns you that this board is a high-performance carving machine. Jump in and feel its power!
- Directional Shape - inserts moved 10 mm back make it easier to float in powder. Blunt tail and diamond nose are versatile shapes that can handle both corduroy and powder.
- Standard Camrock – CamRock combines classic camber between the binding with rocker on the tip and tail. Thanks to the shortened contact edge, the board gives you a more relaxed feeling when starting turns and during landings.
- 1% For The Planet - Nidecker sends 1% of sales directly to non-profit organizations fighting climate change.
Technology
- Premium Sandwich Construction – next level construction, increases the performance and response of the standard Sandwich construction. Adding advanced materials like carbon and kevlar gives the board more pop and improves shock absorption.
- 4 × 2/5 Inserts – With 5 rows of inserts every 2cm, this combination is the industry standard and works with all bindings on the market.
- Wood Ash Veneer Topsheet - This veneer topsheet promotes response, pop and has natural dampening properties.
- Triax Plus Fiberglass – the result of extensive testing is a three-axis lamination at an angle of 45° for maximum rigidity. Triax Plus utilizes different densities of fiberglass under and above the core, resulting in consistent torsional flexibility, improved pop and flash response.
- Master Core – is the result of a long history of experience in the field of materials and woodworking. The combination of poplar and paulownia provides the best of both woods – lightness, strength and responsiveness.
- Pop Carbon – Strategic placement of carbon fiber between inserts and from tip to tail for stronger response, pop and stiffness. Thanks to its ability to dampen vibrations, it is ideal for more aggressive riding.
- N-7000 Base – a special base designed for Nidecker that is as durable and easy to maintain as an extruded base, but has the hardness of a sintered one. You can call it "sintruded". Or just fast.
- Premium Design - the board has a matte surface. By layering, graphics gain unmistakable depth and texture.

How to choose a snowboard
When choosing a snowboard, it is important that it matches the level and experience of the rider and his overall physical constitution - i.e. height and weight. A beginner with no previous experience should choose a snowboard that is not too specific in its parameters for a specific snowboarding style.
Advanced riders usually prefer a specific style – freeride (freeride / pow), freestyle (park riding on obstacles, jumps) or universal/allround (riding on the slope).
VIDEO: How to Choose a Snowboard
The Length of the Snowboard
The length of the snowboard should generally be up to the chin. If the rider is still expected to grow, the size should be chosen between the chin and the nose. For freestyle you can choose a slightly shorter board, but this is not a rule. A board that is too short could make you oversteer in a turn, while a board that is too long makes it difficult to transition into a turn and is generally harder to control.
Weight of the Rider
Each snowboard has a specific weight tolerance - the range of minimum and maximum rider weight. When choosing a snowboard, it is important to consider whether the rider is within this weight tolerance or not. If the rider is too light for the chosen snowboard, they will not flex enough in the turn, will not ride the full length of the effective edge and will not take advantage of the board's characteristics. Riders weighing above the weight tolerance risk overloading the snowboard or damaging it.
If you're not sure if the snowboard you've chosen suits your weight, ask us!
The Width of the Snowboard
The width of the snowboard is also an important parameter. It is important that the rider does not reach the toes or heels of the boots to the slope when riding in an arc. Riders with a boot size of UK 10.5 (EUR 45) and larger should look for wide versions of snowboards. With such a board they will be able to cut arcs without grinding the slope with their toes. There are also snowboards in mid-wide (slightly wider boards) and superwide (wide boards for really big feet) versions.
Flex (Stiffness and Flexibility) of the Snowboard
Softer boards are more suitable for beginners, are easier to control and forgive more mistakes. They are also sought after by freestyle riders who spend most of their time jibbing (riding over obstacles). However, at faster speeds, a soft snowboard is no longer obedient in the arc and cannot bounce as nimbly as a stiffer board.
Stiffer boards require experienced, fast to aggressive riding. When ridden fast, it holds better on edge and overall on frozen surfaces. The choice of a very stiff snowboard depends on the rider's experience, riding style as well as weight - lighter riders should opt for a softer snowboard instead. Not sure how stiff your snowboard is? Ask us!
Women's Snowboards
Women's snowboards take into account the specifics of the female figure. Girls have a different centre of gravity than men, their feet are smaller and their height/weight ratio is also different. All these differences are reflected in the geometry and construction of women's snowboards.
Women's snowboards are narrower, usually softer, and inserts are moved a few millimetres closer to the centre compared to the men's version.
Types of Snowboard Bends
Another criterion when choosing a new snowboard is also the type of bend, such as camber, rocker, flat and various hybrid bends such as 3D camber, double camber etc. The best way to know the type is to put the snowboard on a flat floor and look at its profile to see where it is bent and which parts of the base are touching the ground.
A beginner will be most comfortable with a rocker that is more forgiving of mistakes. The opposite camber bend is better suited for more experienced riders, as it can bite the edge more easily, so it's good to have the snowboard under maximum control, and it has more pop and more precise control over the rocker. The flat shape with almost zero flex provides stability in all terrain, but is most used in snowpark. The hybrid flex is a combination of camber and rocker together, making it a versatile all-mountain board.
Balance of Components
The individual components of the snowboard equipment should be balanced. High-end snowboard assumes a higher model of bindings and snowboard boots. The equipment should be a balanced unit. Manufacturers often list recommended combinations of components in their catalogues and websites.
If you're buying a whole set of gear, it's a good idea to start by choosing your boots. Depending on the size, shape, thickness and possibly the brand of the snowboard boots, the appropriate bindings will be chosen.
For the maximum life of your snowboard, it's a good idea to follow a few rules and tips - these can be found in the article Snowboard maintenance: base and edge care.
