The Escape Plus packs even more punch into the same versatile outline as its younger brother. A full camber profile gives you maximum edge grip and explosive ollie power – supplemented by PopCarbon Plus stringers that run the length of the deck to deliver lightning response. This is a board that’s playful to ride but loves to go fast, whether you’re plundering the early morning fresh or sending it off the big line in the park.
At the heart of the Escape Plus is our legendary Master Core, combining the best qualities from four woods (poplar, beech, spruce and paulownia) for the ultimate in strength to weight. Together with that extra dose of carbon, the Escape Plus feels smooth and vibration-free even as the throttle’s turned up to 11. Underneath we’ve specced it out with a rapid and durable N-7000 base, while the layup uses Triax Plus glassing to keep you carving like you’re on rails. With its unique varnished walnut veneer adding a stunning finish, experienced snowboarders will appreciate the detail that’s gone into this all-terrain powerhouse.
Personality: Mid - Stiff
Shape: With over fifty years of proven performance, directional shapes have a nose longer than the tail and excel at float, glide, carving and stability in variable snow
Bend: Positive Camber is the bedrock for performance snowboards. Its extra grip and powerful response have made it the default choice for riders looking for optimum carving performance. The secret to our advanced camber is the addition of 8 to 10 cm flat transitions at the contact points, delivering the ultimate in precision, edge hold and stability.
Core: The Master Core construction is a product of our long history of experimentation in materials and woodcraft. It’s the perfect harmony of different wood densities and varieties (poplar, beech, spruce, and paulownia), resulting in a superior weight-to-performance-to power ratio, and an ultra-strong, extra-responsive, lightweight core.
Fibreglass: The result of extensive testing with our riders and engineers, our Triax laminate is oriented at 45° to the board, and contains different glass densities. This provides consistent torsional flex, better pop, and more reactivity on every turn.
Base: Developed exclusively for Nidecker, the N-7000 is an extremely tough, sintruded base with added carbon nanoparticles that provide exceptional glide
Board Mount: With 6 rows of inserts every 2 cm, this insert combination allows you to adjust your stance to the optimum position, and works with all bindings on the market. Our reference stance is the second narrowest position possible.
EXTRAS
Pop Carbon Plus means we use a double amount of Pop Carbon, placed on both sides of the core and running tip to tail, which creates twice the amount of pop and liveliness
Premium Sandwich is next level construction that steps up the power and response of our standard sandwich manufacturing. Adding advanced materials like carbon gives the board more pop and improved shock absorption
The wood veneer top layer delivers added responsiveness and is the most natural way to find the best balance between absorption and pop.
