The 2026 Nitro Womens Optisym is the newest freestyle-friendly womens board that was created from the worldwide demand for a womens version of the Optisym. Nitro has made the womens version of this board with the exact same technologies as the mens, just creating it in different lengths and waist widths. As an asymmetrical snowboard the heel side of the board has a tighter turning radius allowing more powerful heelside turns, while smooth butters, presses and popping off everything in sight is attributed to the Cam-Out Camber and mid flexing core. A most welcomed addition to the womens Nitro range, we are sure the Womens Optisym will not only turn heads but help progress up and coming freestyle masters.
Board Type: Freestyle - All Mountain
Freestyle snowboards are built for park riders and those who love performing tricks on jumps, rails, and side hits. They feature a true twin shape, which means they ride symmetrically in both directions, making them ideal for riding switch.
All Mountain snowboards are versatile boards that excel across various terrains, from groomed runs to off-piste. They typically feature a directional or directional twin shape, with a medium flex for a balance of stability while still being playful. These boards offer solid edge control and responsiveness, making them a great option for riders who want one board to do just about everything.
Flex: 5/10 (1=soft, 10=stiff)
Offering a balanced blend of flexibility and stiffness, mid-flex boards are versatile and suitable for all-mountain riding. They provide enough responsiveness for carving while maintaining some forgiveness for playful or casual riding.
Ability Level: Beginner - Intermediate
A beginner snowboard is softer, lighter, and more stable, making it easier to control and manoeuvre while learning basic skills like turning and stopping.
Intermediate snowboards offer more responsiveness and stability at higher speeds, with a slightly stiffer flex for better control on varied terrain and more advanced manoeuvres.
Shape: Asym Twin
Exactly the same whether you're riding switch or regular, this allows you to push your switch riding and land comfortably regardless of which way you're facing. While the asymmetrical shape gives you a tighter radius on your heel side, making it easier to turn on your heels.
Camber Type: Cam-Out Camber
Cam-out camber is basically positive camber with earlier and smoother transition zones in the tip and tail. This gives the board a lower rise in the centre, resulting in a fun and responsive ride with easier turn initiation and more forgiveness, giving you the benefits of camber without the aggression.
Profile: Whiplash Core Profile
The Whiplash Core Profile reduces thickness of the board between the inserts while adding more outside your feet. This gives maximum ollie power, while still maintaining flex.
Width: Standard
Standard width boards deliver exceptional edge-to-edge quickness and responsiveness while providing enough platform space for riders with average boot sizes.
Sidecut: Dual Degressive Sidecut
A smaller radius sidecut in the centre along with two larger ones in the tip and tail make it feel loose, playful, and the most forgiving sidecut in the Nitro range.
Inserts: 2x4 Inserts
These offer a tighter hole pattern, allowing for more precise stance adjustments. They're common on modern boards and ideal for riders who want fine-tuned positioning and can be used with any binding with a standard or mini disk.
Board Construction
Laminate: Bi-Lite Laminates
Bi-Lite Laminates have fibres running in two directions, providing strength, power, and a forgiving board feel.
Core: PowerCore ll
A performance driven core with tip to tail Poplar wood and additional Beech Wood stringers. The result: Unmatched strength, smooth response, and a tonne of snap.
