Nidecker Merc snowboard set AM with Flow Fenix binding 2024
Progression begins with confidence, and the Merc’s playful feel will inspire you to take your riding to the next level, whatever the terrain.The secret sauce is the Standard Camrock profile, a combination of classic camber beneath your feet with extended rocker towards the tip and tail. This gives great edge hold without being too aggressive; it also smooths turn initiation and adds useful float in powder.
We’ve paired it with a mellow flex pattern that doesn’t need superhuman strength to load presses, but thanks to Pop Carbon inlays at each end you can still generate a ton of ollie power. It’s a truly versatile model and a favourite of our team, whether they’re launching off the pro line or exploring deep in the backcountry. You won’t find a better value quiver killer

Whitelines comment on the Merc:
This is a fairly recent addition to the Nidecker family, it was released last year and remains the less pricey option within the range – making it an ideal choice for snowboarders who’re after something less spenny. The Merc is for the more mellow shredders out there, ones who are looking to improve their everyday riding while having fun at the same time.
The camrock profile makes the Merc quite the versatile vehicle. With rocker at both ends, turning is made easy and smooth and you aren’t required to put a whole lot of effort into your turns either (in order for it to look smooth). The rocker sections also give the board more float, so if you prefer an all mountain board that floats smoothly through the white fluffy powder fields as well as it shreds the groomers – the Merc is definitely a valid option.
“You’ll be able to charge down the groomers feeling as indestructible as an old Nokia phone and lighter than dust”
Despite the directional shape, the difference between the nose and the tail is only 1cm, making the Merc a great drive but also manageable to ride switch with. So, whether you want to improve your everyday riding or practice your switch – this board has got your back.
With a mix of different woods (poplar, beech, spruce and paulownia) Nidecker’s created a core that isn’t just strong and responsive, but also ultra-lightweight. You’ll be able to charge down the groomers feeling as indestructible . The carbon and Kevlar that’s been added to the board make it even more durable, while also improving its dampening abilities.
The Nidecker Merc is ideal for riders looking to improve their snowboarding skills; whether it’s by gaining more confidence on the slopes, learning to ride switch, or by getting more experience in powder.
“The Merc is a really solid choice for any aspiring beginner and intermediate snowboarders. Mellow enough in the flex and profile to get away with murder, but responsive and damp enough to give it the beans when you’re starting to get the hang of things.
“Whatever Nidecker say about the setback or subtle directional shape, don’t worry about it, it rides as true twinned as anything I’ve been on”
I taught for several days on this one and ended up guiding a client who rode regular (I’m goofy), so spent the majority of my time on it riding switch. Whatever Nidecker say about the setback or subtle directional shape, don’t worry about it, it rides as true twinned as anything I’ve been on.
Obviously the base isn’t crazy rapid. Then again, is that something a beginner or a beginner’s budget really wants? Probably not. It’s a great price for a great all rounder. Maybe just make sure you’ve got plenty stickers to jazz it up a little, eh?”

Flow Fenix snowboard binding
For anyone ready to step up their game, the best-selling Fenix delivers all-round performance at a great price. Rockered corners on the baseplate combine with off-axis power beams to enable natural board flex and super efficient energy transfer from edge to edge. Heelside response is boosted even further via our famous Power-Triangle, created between the high-tensile steel cable, the asymmetric hiback and the base section. On the flipside, by constructing the Fenix from glass-filled nylon we’ve allowed a good amount of movement laterally, which is awesome for freestyle riders who want to express themselves in the park or less experienced shredders that are still dialling their turns and need some forgiveness. It’s also designed to let your boot slide in with minimal friction, aided by the ActiveStrap Technology which moves it up automatically when you recline the hiback. The ExoFrame Fusion Strap is made from one piece of material that hugs more of your boot, providing superior comfort over your midfoot. It can’t soak up water or freeze like padded straps, and the design makes the most of Flow’s patented rear entry system; once you’ve set it up once using the Locking Slap Ratchets, you can forget about it and enjoy the rapid closure our binders are known for. Just kick it, lock it, drop it.
