The Nidecker Thruster Snowboard is the ultimate all-mountain charger that combines decades of experience in shaping performance snowboards with the latest 3D design technology. This board is built for aggressive high-speed carving and offers unparalleled control, stability, and speed. The lightest core in the Nidecker line, powerful camber profile, and super dense N-9000 sintered base make this board blazingly fast.

Key Features:

  • SideKick tips raise the wide points off the snow for smoother edge engagement and help plow through deep snow and crud.
  • Added carbon and an Absorbnid topsheet deliver a stable, chatter-free ride even at high speeds.
  • Laser-guided control makes this board a missile on any terrain.

Leonid Cha tested this product
It's a fantastic choice for resorts because it's versatile and works well for riders of all skill levels. This board has a traditional camber profile, perfect for turning and control on groomed runs. One unique thing about the Thruster is its directional shape. That just means the bindings are set back a bit. Turns are easier and keep you stable... Read more

I was looking to purchase a new setup (snowboard, boots, bindings, and googles) for the upcoming season. Everything I have is very worn out. The last time I purchased a new setup was ten years ago, and I did not know where to start. So, I went through the "find your snowboard" quiz and was matched with Mike. From there we were able to really dial in my setup. I can't wait to try it out! Thank you Mike!

I'm getting back into snowboarding after a lonnngg hiatus and Leif knew exactly what I needed for both my skill level and the exact mountain I will be spending time at this winter. I had a pretty small budget considering the cost of gear and he found me a board and bindings way under budget. I was thrilled. I was also delighted that I got a personalized video describing my options. Highly recommended!

Ryan was very helpful, friendly and knowledgeable. I can in knowing nothing about snowboards and I gave him a weird task of trying to find a board that would work for both me and my brother at different weights. I appreciate how happy he was to help and how he kept checking in on me wanting to help.

Jay is Awesome!
5 /5
Jay is very knowledgeable when it comes to snowboards. If you really want to dive into the differences between the materials, and engineering behind snowboards Jay is the guy to get into these conversations with. I’ve been riding for 25 plus years, and at this point in my life, I really appreciate Jay being there to just talk about the different nuances of snowboarding. I feel he was really able to understand the type of riding I like to do, and where i want to take my riding, and made excellent gear recommendations.

Josh helped me buy my second real snowboard. I was upgrading from a board I purchased on craigslist and rode for several seasons, and Josh was very patient and helpful talking through riding styles and making recommendations. After we narrowed it down to a few options, he even made a video talking through pros/cons of each of the boards - all around an incredibly helpful dude!

I was looking for a new snowboard. I knew I wanted to get something that excelled in powder but I wasn't sure which board to get. Taylor helped me narrow my selection down to a few options and I ultimately went with his top recommendation. It's really helpful to get a second opinion. Thanks for the help, Taylor!
