The Play Snowboard keeps first days on snow easy and fun
What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying:
"I spent a full day on this with a friend who was just starting out, and the FlatRock profile made it way easier for her to hold an edge without catching a tip on flat sections. By the afternoon she was already trying small ollies off the groomers without hesitating."
Progression feels a lot less intimidating when the board underneath you is actually built for it, and the Nidecker Play Snowboard is designed around exactly that idea. We think of a first timer easing off the lift, still finding their edges, gaining confidence turn by turn as the day goes on.
The FlatRock profile lifts the tips from the widest points, so catching an edge becomes far less likely while riders are still learning to read the snow underneath them. A full poplar wood core and Biax fiberglass construction keep the flex forgiving and predictable, while the N5000 Extruded base stays fast even without regular waxing, so new riders can focus on their turns instead of their gear.

Phantom Glide By DPS Skis
This snowboard is compatible with Phantom Glide, the long-lasting base treatment from DPS Skis. Backcountry technicians apply and UV-cure it before the board ships, so it arrives ready to ride with no waxing needed.
How It Works

Applied By Backcountry Techs
Backcountry technicians treat and UV-cure every board in the shop before it leaves the warehouse, so it arrives ready to ride with no setup required.

Glide That Outlasts Wax
Wax sits on top of the base and wears off in a few days. Phantom Glide bonds into the base, so glide stays fast and consistent from cold powder to spring slush.

No More Wax Days
Phantom Glide replaces scraping, ironing, and shop visits with a quick base cleaning using the Phantom Glide Base Care Kit. The formula is made without PFAS.
