Nidecker 27 The Gun Snowboard

As any surfer can tell you, when you're tackling heavy faces, you gotta reach for a Gun. Our take on the classic big wave dart is a 174cm directional speed machine built around a lightweight poplar/paulownia core and a rapid sintered base. The huge nose and drawn-out sidecut is made for laying down soul turns in the backcountry, dominating banked slalom events and thundering down trails. The go-to choice of legendary bomb dropper Mike Basich.
