Nidecker's longtime surf-inspired freeride model, built around a Diamond Pow nose (extended transition for extra float) and a fish-style tail that sinks into deep snow. Setback camber sits under the back foot with an extended rocker section up front. Whitelines' review of an earlier redesign called it versatile enough to lay down carves on hardpack despite its powder-first shape, and an earlier Whitelines test of the Mellow series described it as a laid-back, surfy freeride board that still holds an edge through crud and firmer groomers -- both reviews selected it for the "Whitelines 100" awards.
