The top pick of some of Sims' most progressive riders, the Sims Nub Snowboard gets the nod for freeride trickery taken to its logical next step. With plenty of pop from its Traditional Camber shape and I-Carbon laminate, the Nub also uses Sims' fastest base and best Tri-Tex fibreglass layup. A strong contender for "most freestyle fun you can have while not in the park" honours.
The NUB is a freerider’s freestyle board and a freestyler’s freerider board. The Long Nose Twin shape and progressive sidecut make it look like a directional board, even though it is a twin tip based on the contact points. It rides and lands switch without the twitch of directional shapes. The long nose provides plenty of float in the powder, and the optimum stance puts you in the sweet spot of the traditional camber and sidecut. The NUB is the favorite board of team riders John Jackson, Scott Blum, Keegan Valaika, and Shuhei Sato.
FEATURES:
- Unitive Mid Core construction features Light Poplar wood with thin bands of Standard Poplar running along the edges for increased edge hold and stability at speed. Sims Twin Wave Form technology takes core construction one step beyond by thickening the core under the binding hole patterns, resulting in greater shock absorption and quicker edge-to-edge response from the slight increase in leverage.
- The NUB uses Tri-Tex fiberglass, Sims most advanced, high-end matrix, and a 50mm wide strip of I Carbon. This fiberglass/carbon combo increases power and pop, provides smooth rebound out of the turn and is extremely durable. Sliding on Sims high density, highspeed Premium Racing Base, this board is a rocket.
- Traditional Camber – A single convex arc between the board’s contact points ensures predictable edge hold, load, and rebound as pressure is exerted and expelled throughout the rider’s turn.
- Flex: Flex Rating – 7 (1 Soft - 10 Stiff)
- Shape: Long Nose Twin
- Regular Tip – This is a traditional construction that features full wood core content from tip-to-tail for smooth-flexing stability and durability.
- Core: Unitive Mid Core – This core features tip-to-tail Light Poplar construction with thin bands of more rigid Standard Poplar running along the edges. This dual-density design increases control and stability while edging to keep your board exactly where you want it.
- Twin Wave Form Core Profile – In accordance with the position of the hole pattern and the camber, the thickness of the core surface is partially adjusted to create a unique flex, enhancing shock absorption and control.
- Laminates: Tri-Tex – Sims' most advanced matrix; a 3-way lay up that combines light fiberglass at 0º, 45º, and 90º degrees, ensuring unquestionable pop, rebound, flex, and torsion in their highest performance boards.
- I-Carbon – A 50 mm carbon stringer provides lightweight rigidity to improve pop and power in all environments.
- Base: Premium Racing – Utilizing industry-leading technology from ISOSPORT, this high-density, high-speed base material is chosen for its molecular weight, which delivers unrivaled speed, excellent wear resistance, and increased wax permeability.
