Characteristics of the Nidcker Ora

Brand new, the Ora is a versatile women’s board with all the tech you need to get to the next level – fast. The key to this model is its full wood core and playful mid-soft flex, ideal for mastering the perfect turn or popping your first tricks in the park. The Standard Camrock profile offers the best of both worlds: camber between your feet for spring-loaded response, and extended rocker towards the nose and tail which makes it harder to catch an edge and improves float in deep snow.

The directional twin shape provides optimal performance in your regular stance but is still happy going switch, making the Ora the only board you need, whatever the conditions. With a bunch of technology that’s trickled down from our top-end models, it also offers unbeatable value.

Nidecker Snowboards - The first snowboard company in Europe

In 1984, the Nidecker company starts the production of snowboards with the assumption that they will be the best boards in the world. It is the first company in Europe and the second in the world after Burton. Today - after years - the mission has not changed - to be the best in the industry. Nidecker is one of the first snowboard brands to exist since the sport first appeared in the world. It is the first European manufacturer of snowboards. The company has a 125-year history of creating its own products in its own factory, a qualified team of engineers working all year round together with a team of riders to develop the best possible technical solutions for snowboarding. The location of the factory in the heart of Switzerland means that the development team has convenient access to some of the best mountains in the world to test all products in all conditions.

Since '84, the company's products have won numerous awards and distinctions for their quality and innovation in the industry. Numerous trade magazines and sports organizations around the world have recognized Nidecker as an industry leader for several decades. Recent awards to the company include the 2010 Lifetime Achievement Award EUROSIMA, presented to Henry Nidecker Sr. for his long-term contribution to the development of snowboarding, 2010 Breakthrough Brand Award for the launch of YES Snowboard, Jones Snowboard and Slash by Gigi brands.
