Product details
The Nitro Ika snowboard takes its name from the Māori word for fish, and it rides exactly like one should — fast, fluid, and perfectly at home in Big White's deep, low-angle powder. Co-developed with Christy Prior, its Tapered Swallowtail shape delivers effortless float and quick edge-to-edge response, while the Cam-Out Camber profile and mid-wide platform give it a surf-inspired feel that turns long powder runs into smooth, flowing lines. It's a playful yet stable board built to slow things down and find rhythm in every turn, whether you're deep in Big White's stashes or carving back across Silver Star's groomers.

WHO IS THIS FOR |
The Ika is built for intermediate-to-advanced women riders who want a dedicated powder board with a playful, surfy feel for Big White's deep snow days, without giving up the ability to cruise Silver Star's groomers. Its stiff 7/10 flex and swallowtail shape favor confident riders over first-timers. Our team at Fresh Air will help you find the right ski/board and size in-store at both Kelowna locations.
