Is This For You?
- What type of riding is the Nitro Quiver Cannon best for?The Nitro Quiver Cannon is a directional swallowtail snowboard designed primarily for deep powder, backcountry lines, tree runs, and high-speed carving. Its wide nose, tapered tail, and setback stance provide excellent flotation in deep powder snow, while the Cam-Out Camber and Progressive Sidecut deliver stability, edge control, and powerful turns on groomed runs. It is an ideal choice for experienced riders looking for a high-performance powder snowboard that can also carve confidently across the mountain.
- What size Nitro Cannon snowboard should I choose: 163 or 203?Choose the Nitro Cannon 163 if you want a more maneuverable and versatile swallowtail for powder, trees, groomers, and everyday resort riding. The 203 is recommended for riders who are looking for the ultimate big snowboard experience.
- Is the Nitro Quiver Cannon only a powder snowboard?No. Although the Nitro Quiver Cannon 163cm is built for exceptional flotation and control in deep powder, it is more versatile than a traditional powder-only snowboard. Its responsive Cam-Out Camber, mid-wide platform, Standard Core Profile, and Progressive Sidecut provide stability and powerful edge hold for carving groomers and riding all-mountain conditions.

Tech Details
Tapered Swallowtail
A wider nose and narrower tail make the board float evenly through powder and cut through the occasional crust. The deeply cut swallowtail reduces the rearward board surface even more for improved control and reduced rear leg burn.
Cam-Out Camber
Our Cam-Out Camber is basically a Trüe Camber with early and smooth transitions into tip and tail. The result is a fun and responsive board that turns on the spot and is forgiving, even after that 713.5° landing!
Standard Core Profile
Like a well-designed bow, the Standard Core Profile has a thicker part in the middle - from first insert to last – while thinning gradually towards the contact points, providing the ultimate in speed stability and edge control.
Mid-Wide
Mid-Wide boards provide that little extra in width for less toe and heel drag, additional flotation and that extra bit of confidence when leaning into these power carves on icy slopes.
Progressive Sidecut
A larger radius in the front, blended into a tighter one towards the tail: The Progressive Sidecut makes accelerating out of turns a breeze, while maintaining a catch-free nose area.
Sintered EcoSpeed HD Base
Utilizing a recycled material compound, we have been able to achieve the same abrasion resistance, increased wax absorption and on-snow speeds with Nitro’ Sintered EcoSpeed HD base as on other comparable sintered bases.
Recycled Steel Edge
Nitro’s Recycled Steel Edge is made of 5% recycled steel, strong, durable and designed with enough meat to give your board a tune-up season after season.
Bi-Lite Laminates
Nitro’s rider-trusted Bi-Lite Laminates are engineered for dependable strength and refined board feel. The bi-directional fiberglass layup delivers balanced response, consistent flex, and versatile performance across a wide range of riding styles.
Powercore II
Nitro’s Powercore II is a tip-to-tail poplar wood core with additional beech wood stringers for unrivalled strength, smooth response, and insane pop.
ABS Sidewalls
Nitro’s ABS sidewalls are made from 35% recycled polymers and are designed to be cold-resistant and durable.
Ecopoxy33
Ecopoxy33 is our bio-based epoxy resin that reduces the carbon footprint of our boards.
Ecoguard Topsheet
Our Ecoguard Topsheet is made from 9% recycled materials and provides a transparent, durable finish.
