Never Summer Proto Type 3 vs Nitro T1

How they compare

Both target all mountain and freestyle terrain, while the Never Summer Proto Type 3 leans more freeride. They share a twin shape — same shape at nose and tail; rides switch naturally. Common for park and freestyle. The Never Summer Proto Type 3 has a camber profile (arc underfoot for strong edge hold, pop, and stability on hardpack—lively and precise), while the Nitro T1 uses hybrid (rocker/camber) (mix of camber and rocker zones for all-mountain versatility—grip, float, and play in one profile). The Nitro T1 is slightly stiffer, though both sit in the medium range.
