1 / 9Nitro Team Pro Marcus Kleveland Snowboard 2027
Pre-order · Ships September 2026
PTO Verdict
“Marcus Kleveland's actual pro model - stiff, cambered, and built to be ridden switch rather than babied.”
Best for: The intermediate-to-advanced rider who rides freestyle across the whole mountain - park, groomers, side hits and natural features - and wants a stiffer cambered board that spins and lands switch but still carves and holds speed. It is for the rider who wants the board Marcus Kleveland rides under his own name, not the softer plain Team.
Not for: First-season and early-intermediate riders: full camber at this flex bites on a sloppy landing, and a softer or hybrid board is the honest start. Dedicated jib riders who want a soft, pressable noodle - this is too stiff for that. Powder hunters: a directional twin on a standard waist does not float deep snow. Riders who will not wax a sintered base.

Description
The Nitro Team Pro Marcus Kleveland is an all-mountain freestyle snowboard - the grown-up signature board Marcus Kleveland rides, built on full camber in a directional-twin shape. Do not confuse it with the kids' Future Team Pro of the same name: this is the adult deck, firmer and more focused than the standard Team, and meant for a rider who brings freestyle to the whole resort rather than only the park.
How it rides comes straight out of how it is built. Camber loads the edges and snaps back off takeoffs; carbon stringers stiffen its response so it stays firm underfoot; a sintered base keeps it quick between features. The directional shaping lets it hold an edge and settle at speed, while the twin tail means you can ride and land backward without fighting the board.
That firmness cuts both ways. The deck rewards a rider who is already at home on camber and wants pop, grip and speed. It is too much board for a first winter, too stiff to press soft rails and butters easily, and too twin-shaped and narrow to float a deep powder day. It also runs a sintered base that asks to be waxed regularly. If forgiving and soft is the goal, a hybrid deck is the better call, and we will point you there.
Nitro offers it in standard and wide widths across a short range of lengths. It arrives as a bare deck, so it needs bindings - Nitro's Team Pro model is the natural partner from the same freestyle family, and our staff pair it up and dial your stance and width in person. For 26/27 Nitro reinforces the binding zone with impact panels for durability, under a fresh topsheet graphic.

The take
“Marcus Kleveland's actual pro model - stiff, cambered, and built to be ridden switch rather than babied.”
The Team Pro Marcus Kleveland is Nitro's pro-caliber freestyle deck and the board Marcus rides under his own name, so read it as a demanding tool, not a friendly one. Nitro rates the flex 8/10 on its own scale, it runs full Trüe camber, and it is a directional twin - stiffer and more serious than the plain Team, and a different animal from the youth Future Team Pro that shares the name. It suits a rider already comfortable on top of camber who wants to take park tricks across the whole hill. Where that stiffness pays off is pop and precision. Full camber loads the edge and springs back off jumps and side hits, and the Carbon Tape stringers add snap without much weight, so the board drives out of a takeoff instead of flexing away underneath you. The sintered Speed Formula II base carries speed into features. The small directional setback gives you a front foot to push against, which is why it holds a carve and tracks at speed better than a dead-centered twin, while the twin outline still lets you ride and land the whole run switch. Where it costs you is forgiveness. Full camber at this flex bites back on a sloppy landing, so it is the wrong first board - a softer or hybrid deck is the honest starting point for anyone still finding their edges. It is stiff for pure jib and butter riding, where a softer board presses more easily. And a twin outline on a standard waist with only a touch of setback is not built to float deep snow; powder days want a different tool. The sintered base also wants regular waxing to stay quick. What is above is reasoned from Nitro's specs and geometry - camber, flex and shape - not from testing, and we would rather flag that than pretend otherwise. For 26/27 the one real spec change is the Ballistic Impact Panels, reinforcement in the binding zone Nitro frames as durability; shape, camber, sidecut, flex, core and base carry over, on a new graphic. It ships as a deck, so plan on bindings - Nitro's own Team Pro binding is the family match, and we set that up with you.
Bindings we'd pair with it
Mount point: Directional twin with a small factory setback - we set your stance in the shop. Our pick: Nitro Team Pro binding (the family pairing).
Sold as a deck, so bindings are separate. Nitro builds a Team Pro binding as the family match for this board. We have no verified store link to name here, so bring your boots and we will mount, size and set your stance when you buy.
Common Questions
- Is this the same as the Nitro Future Team Pro Marcus Kleveland?
- No. The Future Team Pro is the youth board - a softer True Twin in kids' lengths. This is the adult pro model: a Directional Twin on full camber with a stiffer flex. Same rider, different board, so make sure you are buying the one you mean.
- Is it a good first snowboard?
- No, and we would rather say so up front. It runs full camber at a stiff flex, which pops and holds an edge but bites back on a sloppy landing. A softer or hybrid board is the honest call while you are still learning to link turns and ride switch. Come to this one once you are comfortable on camber.
- What size, and is there a Wide?
- The standard run is 152, 155, 157 and 159. Nitro also offers a Wide for larger boots, but publishes no Wide size chart we can quote, so we size width to your boot in the shop rather than guess it. Length follows your weight and riding style, and we are happy to walk you through it.
- What actually changed for 26/27?
- Nitro added Ballistic Impact Panels - reinforcement in the binding area it frames as a durability update - and put on a new topsheet graphic. The shape, camber, sidecut, flex, core and base all carry over from the previous build, so it rides like the same board with a tougher binding zone.
- Is it good in powder?
- Not really. It is a directional twin on a standard waist with only a small setback - there is not much there to float deep snow. It will get you back to the lift on a powder day, but a board built for float is the right tool when it dumps.
