Nitro Arial vs Nitro Ripper

How they compare

Both boards are designed for all mountain riding. They share a twin shape — same shape at nose and tail; rides switch naturally. Common for park and freestyle. The Nitro Arial has a camber profile (arc underfoot for strong edge hold, pop, and stability on hardpack—lively and precise), while the Nitro Ripper uses flat (neutral base between bindings; predictable, often paired with rocker toward tips/tail). The Nitro Arial is slightly stiffer, though both sit in the soft range.
