The 2026 Nidecker Alpha is the perfect board if you are looking for an all mountain powerhouse. Drawing inspiration from nature’s most efficient forms, the Alpha redefines all-mountain performance with seamless flow and precision. Whether you're floating through powder, carving crisp lines, or weaving tight tree runs, this board is built for effortless riding. A 3D contoured nose delivers unmatched lift and fluid turn entry, while a subtle taper at the tail enhances control and helps the board sink naturally in deeper snow.
Board Type: Intermediate - Advanced
Camber Type: Surfy CamRock
Surfy CamRock puts camber between your feet with rocker in the tip and slightly in the fail, giving the board plenty of pop with catch-free turns and more forgiving response.
Flex: 5/10 (1=soft, 10=stiff)
A mid flexing board can handle any terrain in its path while still being forgiving enough to not be too aggressive.
Shape: Directional
This board has a longer nose than tail, giving you more drive when facing forwards but still allowing you to ride switch with ease.
Core: Master Core
The Master Core is the culmination of decades of experimentation in materials and woodcraft. Two species of wood (poplar and paulownia) are combined to give the best of all worlds: light, strong and responsive.
Biax Plus Fibreglass
Biax Plus features a classic 90° weave but uses more glass to enhance power transfer. It’s super responsive and ideal for riders seeking a stiffer and more agile board that's still playful.
Premium Sandwich
A step up from a standard sandwich construction that adds carbon stringers for more pop, quicker edge response and improved shock absorption.
Pop Carbon
Carbon fiber is positioned between the inserts and the nose and tail – boosting ollie power and dampening chatter.
Base: N-7000
Developed exclusively for Nidecker, the N-7000 has all the durability and low-maintenance glide of an extruded base but is as hard as a sintered base.
Mounting Pattern: 2x4 Inserts
Additional Features:
Absorbnid Topsheet - Absorbnid is an innovative top layer designed to absorb unwanted vibrations.
Evolution Nose - Our 3D curved nose helps the board roll smoothly from edge to edge, creating a natural, surf-like flow through each turn.
Drop Out - The Drop Out is derived from the shape of a bird of prey's tail. It generates more control when up on edge, but also allows for extra agility and deep, tight turns.
