Niche Aether vs Niche Nightshade

How they compare

the Niche Aether leans more freestyle, while the Niche Nightshade leans more all mountain. They share a twin shape — same shape at nose and tail; rides switch naturally. Common for park and freestyle. The Niche Aether has a other profile (mix of camber and rocker zones for all-mountain versatility—grip, float, and play in one profile), while the Niche Nightshade uses camber (arc underfoot for strong edge hold, pop, and stability on hardpack—lively and precise). Both are rated 6/10 flex (medium).
