Nitro Pyro 2014 Review by The Good Ride
The Nitro Pyro is Nitro’s Asymmetrical board and we had a good time on it. It would be more fun if it had their hybrid camber they call Roof Chop Camber but it’s not a bad ride at all.

I have had 5 full days on this board since I bought it. From the start, it eliminated the occasional heel side washouts I'd have on steeper icy or hardpack. My heel side carves are tighter and cleaner than on any of my other all mountain boards. The toe side carves are not as clean, but I expect they'll get better as I continue to adapt my riding technique to the board.
The board has a lot of flex for quick turns in the bumps and trees, while being quite stable at speed. The board is advertised as a park board but I'm quite happy using it as an all mountain freestyle ride.
Being a truly flat profile, it doesn't have the energy and rebound of camber or some of the hybrid profiles. The asymmetric side cut works as advertised. This board won't disappoint.
