The Nitro Alternator x Volcom Snowboard hits the sweet spot for those splitting their time between resort laps and backcountry bootpacks. A medium stiff flex and full camber profile give the Alternator tons of pop and power to drive from turn to turn, even in challenging snow conditions, with a directional shape and setback stance to keep you trenching when the snow is deep and plentiful. If that's not all, this model features a fresh Nitro x Volcom graphic to turn heads in the lift line.
Trüe Camber – Good old standard camber, which provides the stability and pop many shredders can't live without. The amount of snap and support you get from a cambered board is unrivaled.
Flex Rating – 7 (1 Soft - 10 Stiff)
Dual Degressive Sidecut – This sidecut blends a smaller radius in the center with two larger radii in the tip and tail, making it loose and playful. Nitro's most forgiving sidecut.
Powerlite Core – The highest grade of ultra-lightweight poplar wood in Nitro's Powerlite core makes for the perfect ride with lots of pop and unmatched strength at a minimum weight.
Reflex Core Profile – A thinner core profile between your feet improves handling and increases torsional flex, allowing you to steer your board through a turn with ease.
FSC Certified Wood
Tri-Lite Laminates – Responsive and balanced. The perfect blend of flex and torsion control, Nitro tuned Tri-Lite Laminates with fibers running in 3 directions to make for quick turning, highly responsive boards.
Diamond Band – Carbon reinforcement fibers are ultra strong yet lightweight. Tip-to-tail stringers transfer rider's input to help you drive your board and stay in control.
Sintered Speed Formula II Base – Rocket science, put to work! A nanotech wax formula deeply infused into the sintered base material makes the base surface lightning fast in all snow conditions. Highly tuned yet extremely durable, Speed Formula II Base technology is exclusively featured on Nitro's high-end boards.

Air Dampening – The most effective and lightweight dampening system known to man sucks up hard landings and keeps your heels from getting bruised. This noticeable difference in ride comfort saves your back, knees, and ankles to let you ride another day.
3° Canted Footbed – Canting puts your knees and body in the most natural and ergonomic position on the board. Stay out longer and ride longer.
Board Saver Technology – The corners of the baseplates are rounded to reduce friction where the binding and board meet. The result is a more natural flex and feel, and reduced stress to your board in these areas.
Asym Jet Highback
Übergrip Toe Strap with Vibram® ECOSTEP™ Rubber – Co-developed with Vibram®, the Übergrip Toe Strap adapts to any toe box shape while ECOSTEP™ rubber keeps the strap in place, no matter how hard you stomp your landing, even if it's wet or freezing.

Cable Reinforced Connectors & Ratchets – Over-molded stainless steel cables inside of the ratchets and connector straps work to prevent stretch and breakage.
Easy Entry Buckles & Ratchets – These S-curved ratchet straps stay out of your way when stepping into the binding. The wide-mouth buckle funnel helps you guide the ratchet for an ultra fast, precise bite of your buckles.
Forged Aluminum Speedwheel Buckles – The strongest and lightest aluminum lever combined with the smoothness of a polymer Speedwheel. These buckles work like a dream and last forever - no stripping, no slipping!
2x4 Mini Disc with Angle Lock – Smaller in footprint and with less impact on the natural flex of your board, Nitro's mini disk sets the standard in disk functionality.
