About Me


COMMITMENT - EASY TO SAY, HARD TO DO. THEY SAY HESITATION IS DEVASTATION... COMMIT OR GET BROKE. WE HAVE BEEN COMMITTED TO SNOWBOARDING FOR OVER 15 YEARS. IT'S IN OUR VEINS - WE EAT, SLEEP AND BLEED IT. WE'RE LIFERS. MFM, JANNA, EERO, ANDREAS - THESE RIDERS DEFINE THE WORD COMMITMENT. ALL TERRAIN, ALL THE TIME. HESH? FRESH? HOW ABOUT WHO F**KIN CARES? LABELS AND STYLES COME AND GO... COMMITMENT IS FOREVER. THEY CAN RIDE FOR ANYONE - GET ANY PRICE, BUT THEY WANTED TO RIDE FOR US. WHY? BECAUSE OF OUR COMMITMENT. COMMITMENT TO PROGRESSION. COMMITMENT TO DESTRUCTION. COMMITMENT TO FUN. COMMITMENT TO RIDING. COMMITMENT TO KEEPING SNOWBOARDING AS IT SHOULD BE - RAW, AGGRESSIVE, POWERFUL. NOTHING MORE, NOTHING LESS THAN 100% F**KING COMMITMENT.

Who we'd like to meet:
Anyone and everyone who'd be down for the cause.

ABSINTHE FILMS' "OPTIMISTIC" trailer
Absinthe depicts the whole journey of the most amazing snowboarders riding in the most jaw dropping environments. Absinthe gives the best well round look into a snowboarders season, by showing riders in essence of the situation. This movie captures all of its viewers by their innovative filming and the locations that they snowboard in.

MACK DAWG's "PICTURE THIS" trailer
Take 16 of the best snowboarders in the world, the hardest working crew of cinematographers in the industry and one of the worst snow years in memory and what do you come up with? Well you tell us... and Holy Crap Andreas!!! Here's the teaser for MDP's up-coming flick "PICTURE THIS". Featured Nitro rider's include:Eero Ettala, Etienne Gilbert & Andreas Wiig.click here

MDP's "WE'RE PEOPLE TOO" trailer
This movie is built to give up & comers and riders with a different out look on snowboarding to express their creativity and style. Kind of viewed as Mack Dawgs younger brother. They have made movies that show very technical and interesting snowboarding, by keeping in shots that are not always death defying. Their approach is not so much shock and awe, but creativity. Featured Nitro and/or L1 rider's include:Filippo Kratter, Bode Merrill, Josh Mills & Nima Jalali. click here

NITRO'S JANNA MEYEN NOMINATED THE MOST INFLUENCTIAL WOMEN IN SNOWBOARDING!

ANDREAS WINS AT THE VANS CUP!

Andreas Wiig and Hana Beaman Capture Slopestyle Titles in Vans Cup at Northstar-at-Tahoe. Norwegian Andreas Wiig and SoCal shredder Hana Beaman continued their prowess this season in Slopestyle as each captured their first titles at the Vans Cup at Northstar-at-Tahoe Resort on Saturday afternoon. Wiig, who took first at the X Games in Aspen last month, won $21,000 for his efforts. The Vans Cup at Tahoe television special debuts on FUEL TV in two parts on May 7 and May 21 at 9:30 PM ET/PT.

EERO WINS BEST VIDEO PART POLL!
The people have spoken, and the best video part of the year according to our expert panel of judges, you guys, was Eero Ettala’s ender in Mack Dawg Productions latest offering, Follow Me Around. Was it his serious street missions, his switch double backs into pow’, or the double rodeo ten ender? Probably all of the above and then some. JP took second for his two-year ender in Forum’s, That. Trice came in at third for his juicy AK filled part in Absinthe’s, More. French Canadian killer, Etienne took fourth for his sick all-around ender in MDP’s, People. All of the above listed parts were pockets full of banger, but someone’s always gotta be the best, and this time it was Eero by a landslide. Congrats Eero!

MARC FRANK FEATURED
Ain't nobodys got more going on then MFM! from riding rails, DJin' & makin' beats... to helping designing his own signature everything. 'Marco' throws down the business and backs it with all around proficiency. Here's a closer look at Marc from his music & hotels to the teasers & the new G4 The Block series which is on the air. Also, look out for MFM & Erik Christensen in Absinthe Film's "More". So click here Ight

Their name: Road Warriors. Their Mission: to ride wherever they can... For the video clip click here . For photos: click here

ANDREAS TAKES THE GOLDS AT X-GAMES
Andreas Wiig won his second Gold Medal in as many days at Winter X 11, defeating Travis Rice in the final of the Snowboard Best Trick Showdown. Wiig brought his switch backside 1260 to bear in the fading light of Buttermilk Mountain’s Best Trick course, and despite Rice’s attempts to stick his amazing double cork 1080 to trump the Norwegian, he could not find the landing gear on either of his Finals attempts. more

SNOWBOARDER MAG's "RIDER OF THE YEAR"
Every year Snowboarder Magazine announces their "Rider of The Year" Award by ranking the top ten and Eero Ettala was just named number 2! Placing 2nd for having the "Best Video Part" and being the "Best Jibber of the Year". This is what other riders in Snowboarder Mag had to say. Andreas Wiig, speaking of his video part in Mack Dawg’s “Follow Me Around” said it is truly amazing to put all those rails and jumps together in one part. Clearly a recipe for video part of the year. Wiig was especially taken back by one trick in particular: “Eero’s double backside rodeo 1080 was so sick! It looked like he slept the whole way around and then woke up to land it!" J.P. Walker, said that Eero definitely deserves some love. FS boardslide down a four kink rail, that is next level! And the consequences are insane on the double kink with a turn in it. Eero’s knowledge of top level riding has been incorporated in everything he works with at Nitro. His ability to do it all has kept us all on our toes. Congrats Eero!

Nitro snowboards was born in 1990 in Seattle, Washington when two snowboarders wanted to make quality gear because there weren't a lot of good choices out there. Our goal has always been to progress the sport with products that are innovative in technology, design, and materials, always pushing the limits. Snowboarding is all we do! Under the Nitro brand, we offer Boards, Boots & Apparel. Raiden is our Binding line and L1 & L1TA are our Premium Outerwear lines.

All of our products start at our design office in Seattle. Our dedicated design and development team has been with the company from day one - not a lot of snowboard companies can say that! Then european engineering and craftsmanship takes it to the next level. Our products are manufactured worldwide & all our products are throughly tested by our team around the world. Nitro snowboards is distributed internationally by an equally dedicated crew. We're so confident our gear will perform that we back them all with a 2-year warranty.
