Nitro Basher vs Nitro Phase

How they compare

Both target all mountain and backcountry terrain, while the Nitro Basher leans more freestyle. The Nitro Basher uses a twin shape while the Nitro Phase is directional. The Nitro Basher has a rocker profile (lifted contact points for easier turn initiation, float in soft snow, and a catch-free feel), while the Nitro Phase uses camber (arc underfoot for strong edge hold, pop, and stability on hardpack—lively and precise). The Nitro Basher is slightly stiffer, though both sit in the stiff range.
