The Nitro Shadow has broken the mold for freestyle designs and look. After years of performance Nitro has updated the shape to a mid-wide freestyle board that can "slay it" in the park and give the rider solid landings in the backcountry. Riders like Bode Merril and Jonte Edvardson would be lost without it.
