DESCRIPTION
the Evolution of Freeriding
The Beta APX adds top-of-the-line materials to an organic silhouette to create the ultimate backcountry dart. Plenty of volume in the nose provides surf-like float, while extra carbon, thinner sidewalls and a faster base bring even more speed and precision. A favourite of Japanese soul shredder Shin Biyajima, this is the perfect board for riders who enjoy following their instincts in natural terrain – exploring new lines and subtle new ways to turn.
Key Features
- The Beta APX's tail is inspired by predatory birds; its pinched-in design maximises volume and running length where you need it, while effortlessly sinking in pow – eliminating back-leg burn.
- The upgraded sidewall construction delivers power into the edge faster and maximises grip for super precise turns.
- Full-length carbon inlays amplify the board's response and keep the ride smooth even when you're pushing mach 10.
Shape & Profile
TECH
Construction Power Rails An exclusive Nidecker construction inspired by surfboards. The topsheet is wrapped over a rounded wood core to meet a thin sidewall. It's a beautiful finish that's even more stunning to ride, delivering instant drive through the edge. |
|
Topsheet Absorbnid An innovative top layer designed to absorb unwanted vibrations. Enjoy a smooth ride with less fatigue. |
Inserts 4/2-6 6 rows of inserts at 2 cm intervals gives you maximum choice of stance width and works with any binding on the market. |
|
Fiberglass Triax Plus Fiberglass is woven in three directions at 45° for maximum stiffness. The result of extensive testing with our riders and engineers, Triax Plus uses different glass densities above and below the core to deliver more consistent torsional flex, better pop, and lightning response. |
|
Woodcore Light Core Our lightest ever core is composed of three wood types, including featherweight paulownia and super responsive poplar. Hardwood beech stringers down the centre enhance the overall strength and boost pop. |
Base N-9000 A lightning quick sintered base made from super dense material with a high carbon content to minimise friction. Wax it on the regs for race-level performance. |
|
Added Carbon Pop Carbon Plus Pop Carbon is deployed on both sides of the core and from tip to tail, beefing up the flex. Ideal for aggressive riders who want snappy edge response, tons of pop and a smooth ride at high speeds. |
|
3D Shaping Evolution Nose Our 3D curved nose helps the board roll smoothly from edge to edge, creating a natural, surf-like flow through each turn. |
3D Shaping Drop Out The Drop Out is derived from the shape of a bird of prey's tail. It generates more control when up on edge, but also allows for extra agility and deep, tight turns. |
