Nitro Banker vs Weston Backwoods

How they compare

Both target freeride terrain, while the Nitro Banker leans more all mountain, while the Weston Backwoods leans more powder. They share a directional shape — different nose and tail; built to ride forward with better float in powder and drive on groomers. The Nitro Banker has a camber profile (arc underfoot for strong edge hold, pop, and stability on hardpack—lively and precise), while the Weston Backwoods uses hybrid (rocker/camber) (mix of camber and rocker zones for all-mountain versatility—grip, float, and play in one profile). Both are rated 7/10 flex (stiff). The Nitro Banker targets expert riders while the Weston Backwoods is aimed at advanced riders.
