Light on weight, big on fun.
The 2025/26 Nidecker Megalight is built for riders who want a board that feels effortless underfoot but still delivers confident performance. Its lightweight feel makes quick edge-to-edge transitions and playful movements feel natural, while the cam-rock profile keeps things forgiving in soft snow and snappy when you’re carving groomers. Easy-going yet capable, the Megalight is great for riders who love spontaneous turns, side hits, and lively flow everywhere on the mountain.
