Nidecker Alpha Apx vs Nidecker Ora

How they compare

Both boards are designed for all mountain riding. The Nidecker Alpha Apx uses a directional shape while the Nidecker Ora is twin. The Nidecker Alpha Apx has a camber profile (arc underfoot for strong edge hold, pop, and stability on hardpack—lively and precise), while the Nidecker Ora uses other (mix of camber and rocker zones for all-mountain versatility—grip, float, and play in one profile). The Nidecker Alpha Apx is noticeably stiffer at 8/10 versus the Nidecker Ora's 5/10, suiting more aggressive riding.
