Nidecker never was, and never will be cool, and even Nidecker knows this.

interesting board...
The specs are 100% perfect for me, for my size (154).
It's a little bit scary they rate it as 10/10 in flex. Maybe their rating for the boards are a little off like on the boots side...
I picked up the new 158 Smoke. I think numerical flex ratings are wildly subjective. I have not had it on snow yet, but it definitely is a stiffer flex. The tail is quite stiff. I have an Amplid Surfari 157 and The Smoke is noticeably stiffer everywhere.

I'm about 72kg, US9 boots.
I'm curious to hear your impressions of the board, after you will test it on the snow

For sure will add some thoughts on it here when that happens.

I'd quit riding before using either of them.

Being cool IS more important than actually snowboarding so it makes sense.
