Nidecker Alpha vs Nidecker Ultralight

How they compare

the Nidecker Alpha leans more all mountain, while the Nidecker Ultralight leans more freeride. They share a directional shape — different nose and tail; built to ride forward with better float in powder and drive on groomers. Both feature camber profiles — arc underfoot for strong edge hold, pop, and stability on hardpack—lively and precise. The Nidecker Ultralight is noticeably stiffer at 10/10 versus the Nidecker Alpha's 7/10, suiting more aggressive riding.
