The Cutting Edge with Nick Larson | Never Summer Snowboards

Watch Nick Larson carve across 15 inch thick ice on Georgetown Lake in Colorado. Testing 2024 snowboards that have Never Summer Industries cutting edge innovative technology, you can see these boards just tear through the ice.
These boards came straight from The Never Summer Factory in Denver in the exact condition that shops and online orders would receive them.

First test of my Snow Joe was a massive blizzard that dropped 20+ inches of snow with drifts well over 3ft. kzbin.infoUgkxoHYZbq5g9fkcAtinlTqstNlje-UQkCHN This snow thrower is definitely not designed for this much snow but it powered through it. We did have to knock down taller drifts with a shovel and at times the chute was awkward because snow banks were much higher than it could throw, but still much easier than shoveling. The plus side of the small size is the maneuverability. Easy to lift up to walkways and works in tight spaces near cars. Highly recommend.Note: after assembling it started but did not turn. The belt wasn't in place. Easy fix.

[@magnusbjornson3247]

Now do a heelside turn.

[@Slawlerco]

Haha, I came here just to say the same thing! Heelside!

[@thereelaccountant9246]

I was about to comment the exact same lol

[@Kosss2001]

Hahaha

[@SlingShotKid007]

Why would heelside be much harder on ice?

[@Kosss2001]

@@SlingShotKid007 to me heelside requires more balance because of how leg structure is. Toes is easier because ankles can flex and make it easier to lock in that edge.

[@curry2705]

We know you at least tried a heelside carve and we demand to see the failure

[@JohnnySnipes]

no heel edge was tried.... yet

As an east coast rider... I think you just sold me one

There goes my excuse for my resort being too icy.

[@Rufusdos]

Exactly what I was thinking. I was on ice this morning and dealt with it sideways.

[@shawnyg16]

Wildcat in New Hampshirite has a trail that is made to be straight ice; and I used to rip it atleast once a day there but my current board can’t handle that rn tho lol

[@trows-bridgedale-brush2963]

@@shawnyg16 I know the trail you're talking about, was at cannon the other day and some of the trails had zero cover once the wind started blowing

Cuts that deep I’m surprised the ice didn’t break through Impressive. Would like to see heel side too

[@snowboard_clips]

+1 on the heel edge😊

that ice is probably more than 1 meter thick, so not breaking any soon :)

[@rickybobby1055]

Dear Neversummer team. I absolutely love your boards. I tore up my favorite board in 2014. It was a NS Revolver ‘08. When will you remake the Revolver? I absolutely destroyed superparks with that board. I thrashed kirkwood on a 6’ powder day on it launching 20’ cliffs. Wtf? Can we please get it put back in to production. Ive ridden a skate banana by lib tec, and also a NS west since then (amongst other boards) and never has another board ever compared. Rocker panel for life!!!!

[@frdmlvr]

Looks fun....

[@johnman7251]

Would love to know how the board was set up - sharpening method, edge angles, etc. Also wondering if this could be achieved on skis. Thanks for the video!

[@JohnnySnipes]

Such an amazing day! So excited to keep creating videos with you guys

I used to keep my edges sharp enough to not care about ice much, but to watch you carve like that is just impressive. A simple beauty.

Oh is that the secret. ? My edges are round as tires, I will finally use that edger I bought years ago, thank you !

Amazing edge control by Nick and crazy flying by Snipes! Great vibes from the riding, music, and cinematography :D

[@thereelaccountant9246]

I guess I'm not the only one who struggles on heelside carv 😅. I guess it's hardest for a reason

[@williamlovemo8596]

biggest edgeflex

[@Clarke1982]

Amazing. Beautiful edge control and camera work! The turn at 0.50 was my fav, so extended and styled out with leading arm looking so relaxed. I'd love to see a heel side turn go down.. I appreciate a solid lateral tilt is necessary in order to hold the toe side turn so maybe, with the high backs physics will not allow for a frontside turn? Maybe the next ice challenge?!

[@quickdry3]

i'd love to see heel side too, but you couldn't hold such a hard on edge carve with tht binding setup - you can see how it extends beyond the board whereas toesid doesn't.

[@MyGoogleYoutube]

I would have loved to see the cuts in the ice! What kind of angles do they run when they do this?

[@thadlogan51]

From experience and everything I've heard standard camber is supposed to be superior on ice but this seems to throw that theory out the window. I believe the board he is riding in this video has triple camber?

[@travisk5589]

Super dangerous. Can't believe that KZbin allows this on their platform.

[@quickdry3]

seriously? what sport type footage would youtube be restricted to? club level soccer? Look, was I thinking "oof, those flat pivots are just asking to catch a heelside edge" yes... but not safe enough for youtube? we have wingsuits, paragliders, freedivers, scuba divers, mountain bikers, and all sorts.

[@MicBergsma]

Sick! I want to see you do that at a hockey ice rink 😂

[@thereignofthezero225]

Never summer trying to be "edgy." 😄

[@user-yo9sm4zz1l]

I have designed and built snowboards with multiple companies that produce their decks in the United States. I can honestly say that without question my neversummer boards are the most durable, responsive, and trusty boards that I own. My shaper series goes where I want it when I want it to while carving, and my Proto lets me land switch so well that people can’t tell which I stance I belong to. I take pride in knowing that snowboards of this quality are produced right down the street from my house in Denver. Keep up the good work, and keep those edges tight! Thanks for not using slave labor to make your products or bulk ordering cheap products with your labeling from Alibaba like ninety percent of the industry. If marketing sees this get off your ass and go tell the guys doing the actual work in the warehouse that you appreciate them. Cheers, Your friendly neighborhood snowboarder

[@PhilipRuff]

He might be ready for the East Coast.

i want to buy the winch device! What is that called?

[@themag221]

[@devilchild1017]

On my 3rd Never Summer board. They hold up to a good beating, and when I needed customer support they were awesome to deal with as well. Definitely highly recommended.

[@7scrib]

I mean how good are they if you went through 3 of them? I been snowboarding nearly 10 years and I'm on my second board lmao And I don't go once a year or something, I'm on my 19th day of this season all ready.

[@landonbohinc8146]

They hold up as good as any. That person either rode the 👏 out of them, rode them a loooong time, or just kept buying new boards because their standards are different. In terms of literal “can I still ride this” they will last as long as any if not, longer. I’ve been riding mine for three years and a total of probably around 100 days on the slopes including park, mogul, and powder riding and have smashed it into trees and rails and the like and I’ve only needed one repair. Ntm how many times it’s been dropped and once might’ve been banged into a parking garage since the car was too tall with the board on top. So… ya they’re 👌 Jesus loves you God bless✝️

[@66cptsfmf-fapedres14]

you guys should invite ryan knapton to lay down while carving.

[@billbrown1255]

That is insane! Always wondered if that could be done

[@TrillMurray]

You should look up ice skating. It actually dates back quite a ways

[@TrillMurray]

@FuZzOtagE I'm being serious. Ice skates actually use a metal edge to produce traction just like skis and snowboards. Originally bone was used in lieu of steel. There are ice skates that date back to 3000 B.C. Ass..

[@nuggies5852]

Then there’s me who slips out on snow that’s barely ice

[@bbtube11]

Interesting.... This seems to debunk the theory that the side cut radius allows the entire edge to make contact as the board is flexed in a turn. This showed me that most of the edge was not in contact and much of the chatter was the middle of the board going in and out of contact. Other than that it looked amazing and fun!
