JS Surfboards "Nitro" Review with Noel Salas Ep.24

The JS "Nitro" is the perfect small wave Groveler for waves in the 1-3 foot range. In this review Noel goes into the details of the attributes on this fun little 5'6". A good Groveler has low entry rocker and exit rocker says Salas along with it's wide point front from center to help with paddling and down the line speed. The outline, tail, and rails suit Noel's style for surfing small waves with a high performance flare. This little Nitro board has incredible speed because of the generous single to double concaves. Salas also tried multiple fin options and said the Nitro is very versatile and felt good as a thruster, quad, and surprisingly a Twin Fin with a small trailer fin. One thing that stands out most about the Nitro is the surfer has the option to surf it fast down the line or tight in the pocket and I cannot say that about all the different Grovelers out there. Here is what the JS website has to say about the Nitro: OLD SPARK, NEW FLAME The new Nitro is by far the flattest entry rocker in an X Series model to date! Combined with a much fuller nose than other boards in the same category, we have designed a board that allows you to generate and hold speed through flat spots with ease. Along with its deeper concaves for even more lift and liveliness, plus a slightly pulled-in tail outline for extra drive, this pocket rocket is geared towards attacking small sections exactly how you’d mind surf them! While the rails remain full to help overcome any catches in choppy or lackluster waves, excess foam has been foiled out from other areas to retain overall performance and sensitivity in the tail. In many regions around the world, the Nitro will become a go-to board in terrible to average conditions for any surfer wanting a fast board to keep you in the fastest part of the wave!

Hey Noel, nice review! One question..what to do think that improves this board with the HYFI system? Cheers mate
Surf n Show Reviews
Surf n Show Reviews - 5 years ago
David Pires A little more flare.. extra pop in your turns. It will also be lighter so you will turn it faster and it will float better. Roughly 1/2 liter more float compared to a PU. It will be a little more durable too.

Any chance you're gonna review the JS Black Box 2 in the EPS? Was checking out the board, but wanted to know more about it!

Graham Beckett I want too and I have asked the folks at JS to send it down for review but no response. I also asked for the Black Box 3. No answer.... sorry

HI Noel, would this board be a good option as a one board quiver for a beginner/intermediate that surfs a 1-3ft beach break and wants to progress their surfing? I'm 6'2/170LB so given my ability would get a 6'0 or 6'1 in this I guess.
Surf n Show Reviews
Surf n Show Reviews - 5 years ago
Matt R I think you could go with either and it will make for a great 1 board quiver.

Hey Noel, really enjoy the show! I'm riding a Psycho Nitro as my groveller in the Hyfi construction. I've been loving it in small-to-medium and clean waves, but not as much when it's textured and even moderately choppy. Any suggestions on fins to help stabilize the board? I'm an intermediate surfer, 5'9, 150 pounds. I've been riding it mostly as a quad with FCS II Performer Neo-Glass. Also curious about riding it with either the MR Twin + stabilizer or AM Twins +. Thanks!
Surf n Show Reviews
Surf n Show Reviews - 5 years ago
artichokeantigua I usually have two Grovelers and most of the time I work it out. I don’t surf choppy conditions very much either. If you surf chop a bunch then I would get another Groveler in PU.... maybe the Psycho Nitro.
artichokeantigua
artichokeantigua - 5 years ago
Thanks for the reply. Yes, that's been my experience. Do you swap out for poly in those conditions? Or try and make it work? I know you said you prefer EPS for small waves in general.
Surf n Show Reviews
Surf n Show Reviews - 5 years ago
artichokeantigua Stoked you got a fun board. EPS in general struggles in the chop.... it’s pretty topical and when there is texture on the surface it will often skip out or hard to bury the rail on a turn.

You might want to try the AM Thruster set... it won’t help bury the rail but the rake on that fin will make the board a bit more stable. The Performers are pretty neutral... so you should feel the difference.

Would you recommend this model or the psycho version for more top to bottom surfing.
Chris Fan

Hey Noel, seems like the nitro would grovel better than the sampler for the super small waves? I have the sampler and feel like it's more of a 2+ plus board for me. Also you recommend riding the same volume? I have a JS Air 17x 5'8" 25.4L that I love as a DD. Wondering if I should go 5'5" or 5'6" on the nitro. People say to go up for grovelers? Your help is appreciated!!
Surf n Show Reviews
Surf n Show Reviews - 5 years ago
Chris Fan The Sampler is faster down the line and about the same is the pocket. The Nitro will paddle better and go vertical faster in 1-2’ foot surf.
Chris Fan
Chris Fan - 5 years ago
that makes sense. I think I'll stick with the 5'5" nitro. Any further input on the nitro vs. the sampler, in terms of which one works better in smaller stuff? I love my 5'6" sampler and trying to justify getting a 5'5" nitro! Thanks for your responses, always good.
Surf n Show Reviews
Surf n Show Reviews - 5 years ago
Chris Fan I don’t like going up in volume on hybrid Grovelers that have a wide nose and a lot of volume under the chest. They feel too heavy on the front end of the board.... like the swing weight is off unless it’s really short like 5’1” - 5’3”. These types of boards are really fun in small waves but don’t stay on them too long without switching into something with a little more length or it will mess with your stance on the transition to your HPSB in good waves.

Hi Noel loving the reviews absolutely ripping mate!
I am currently deciding between the nitro and pod mod for small summer days ranging from 1-3ft in Sydney.
Just wondering which board is more responsive and which board you prefer?
I am 6'3 and 198 pounds so need all the speed I can get in the small stuff
Currently riding a 6'0 32L JS BB2 in hyfi in 2-5ft and it goes unreal!

Awesome thanks Noel! I did have a look at the Psycho Nitro and did think that will probably be better than the Nitro because its smaller! I'll head down to the local board store and have a look at the Pod mod flexbar and psycho nitro hyfi! cheers Noel!
Surf n Show Reviews
Surf n Show Reviews - 6 years ago
THOMAS BURNS Stoked you like the show. Both of those boards are sick but I think the Psycho Nitro in HYFI looks good and the Pod Mod in Flexbar. I think the Nitro might be a bit long for you in the smaller surf. The Pod Mod and Psycho Nitro will be shorter and more maneuverable in the small surf.

Noel....I think it would be neat to see you surf on/review a true groveler with way more volume, a proper quad setup and actual knee to waist high grovel conditions! Baked Potato, Carbo Hydro....something like that. I love me some grovulation....fun stuff! Great reviews by the way....best on the web.

Hmmmm....around 30 or 31 liters I suppose Noel. My groveler is 7-10 liters more than my standard boards but I'm 230 lbs and not at your level....it's 49 liters of pure magic and flies down the line in surf that long boarders are even struggling in. That board just makes me giggle....its 3 inches thick and silly fast....maybe you could borrow a baked potato.... Probably not something you would want to invest in.. Kinda like riding a moped if you get my drift!!!

goncaloFOD I think the Psycho Nitro looks mental. I love the outline on it too and I think it will go good in the junk. I think you will be happy with both but the Psych Nitro does look like it packs more volume like you said. I might do a review on it but it will be a while.

If you get one let me know how it goes for you. Cheers

goncaloFOD - 6 years ago
Noel i'm looking to a groveler board to my quiver, a good board for small and junky waves. After seeing your review i got excited with the nitro... then i saw the psycho nitro and i liked more the layout of the board. Beside that it has more foam under the chest, have more paddle power, and overall looks more suited for smaller and junky waves. Then i remember to ask you about your thoughts between this 2 boards... or do you remember a better board for this waves and what i'm looking for? Thanks Noel
Surf n Show Reviews
Surf n Show Reviews - 6 years ago
goncaloFOD I have not tried the Psycho Nitro yet but it looks mental. It will be shorter than the Nitro so more sensitive and responsive in small waves. Do you have a Psycho Nitro?

Awesome review Noel ! I like how you describe in detail how the design of the board works. I'm going to order one in Futures fins. What Futures fins sets would you recommend for both as a thruster and quad setup ?
Surf n Show Reviews
Surf n Show Reviews - 6 years ago
I would keep it roughly the same. If you go with more volume then you have all of that foam under your front foot to throw around. It will be a good paddler at the same volume because of the way the foam is distributed under your chest when you are paddling.
Eugene W

6'0 180 lbs - intermediate level. My shortboards are usually 6'0 and around 31-32 liters. Would your recommend going up in volume or keeping it about the same ?

I rode it in waist high to a foot overhead, and it worked well in every situation. I used the new JS fins as a tri, and the reactors as a quad, and both were money. You know its a good board when it worked well with different fins and in different conditions. I loved how fast and responsive it was for such a flat compact board. I was making the connection from the outside peak into the inside section at my local beach break that had most guys not able to make. Its stable and still turns on a dime despite it being a wider flatter board. JS always keeps that high performance edge in all his boards, and this one is no exception. My feeling is it is a more "Refined" More Ferrari version of the Lost Short Round. It's a keeper; it works now and I know it will be the perfect summer ripper. (I ride a 6'0"-6'1" MonstaBox as my daily driver, and I chose the 5'10" Nitro) Don't need to go to small on this one, only 2-3 inches shorter. its narrower with more foiled tapered rails then a typical groveler (hence the "performance groveler). Thanks again Noel, see you out at lowers on it soon.

Hey Noel. I have the nitro poly version and totally love it! I know you haven't tried the epoxy construction for this model yet but have with a different model. So, my question is, do you think the pub and the epoxy would perform nearly the same? I know it would have more float, for paddling that's greatly appreciated.

Regards
Surf n Show Reviews
Surf n Show Reviews - 6 years ago
Troy Robinson Those sound like a good set of fins.

I like boards with less nose rocker for the point breaks I surf. If I surfed heavy beach all the time then these type of boards will struggle because they lack curve. The Nitro is a really fun small wave board and a great board for everyone's quiver. Having a quiver of boards and fins is key to maximize growth in ones surfing. Keep up the board testing and good questions!!! Cheers!!!
Troy Robinson
Troy Robinson - 6 years ago
I usually using the am'2 orange honeycomb medium size. They feel like nice all round fins for carving and release. I think i need to ride the sampler more in different waves. I understand what your saying but maybe with the pushier waves we usually get here its nice to control speed also as #4 seems to work best when the waves aren't too fast and got more time to do manoeuvres. Its definitely can be harder to get on some waves with the more nose rocker. I would love to try a #4 with channels to help it's speed and drive.
I noticed the extremely flat nose rocker on the nitro which i think was the main reason I didn't like the blackbox 1 as bit flat for a 5.9. in the steeper waves we often get but maybes in a 5.6 be ok.
Surf n Show Reviews
Surf n Show Reviews - 6 years ago
True the single to double with V will be a bit looser then a single concave board with V. The PM I liked in the review was 5'2 and when the board is that short I think it's a bit easier to manipulate in the pocket because it's so responsive compared to the 5'7 Sampler. Just a few things to consider in this comparison.
Surf n Show Reviews
Surf n Show Reviews - 6 years ago
I liked the #4 as a groveler when it first came out but I really felt like the speed in the Sampler is worth more to me in small waves compared to a board that has more rocker. The #4 felt pretty good in the pocket compared to the Sampler but no where near the speed. I guess there is a tipping point for small wave surfing. Pro surfers use a board with more rocker because they want more vertical pocket surfing even in smaller waves, however the pro's do not have a problem with generating speed even in the smallest of waves. What fins are you using on your Sampler and what size?
Troy Robinson
Troy Robinson - 6 years ago
The pod mod has a bit of double into v so might help its qualities in pocket..
Troy Robinson
Troy Robinson - 6 years ago
I ended up getting a 5.6 sampler which paddles ok as being less volume than im use to. It is Fast but i find the deep single concave affects the way it turns compared to the double into v such as my #4. I'm thinking it might also be because its so much narrower at 18 5/8 also as i seem to like a bit of width to help feel more stable in turns. I'm thinking i be better on the 5.7 or even a 5.8 but still thinking the deep single and flatter rocker will not be as easy as my more rockered and less concave #4 which goes great in the 5.7 and 5.8 groveller model as the waves we get can be bit raw and pushy in W.A
Did you find this at all?

bushkey
bushkey - 6 years ago
we are on the same page. agreed. I am one who doesn't like to go too short. I still like paddle power and some stability. Im more of a rail carver and Js boards suit me that way....why I would prefer the Nitro over the PM. I will add the PM was the best foam climber and small wave pocket board I probably have ever surfed.
Surf n Show Reviews
Surf n Show Reviews - 6 years ago
bushkey I think this is a pretty good comparison to the PM too. I think the PM was really fun in the stock 5'2 and I was thinking it's a bit hard to compare the two of them because the PM is so short.

With the Nitro being 5'6 it had more rail in the water and I could draw my turns a bit more and it felt more short boardy.

It would be a fun comparison to order a custom PM around 5'6 and thin it out and then compare them both. They are both great boards!!!!
bushkey
bushkey - 6 years ago
THe pod mod has a tad more pivot and a tad better in the pocket, while the Nitro is faster making the sections on flat spots. But both are great fast responsive small wave boards. IMO
Surf n Show Reviews
Surf n Show Reviews - 6 years ago
Troy Robinson I think the Sampler is faster down the line but the Nitro seems to paddle better with the wide point front center. I also like the way the Nitro fits in the pocket because it's a bit shorter in length.

I think a better comparison is the Pod Mod. They are both super fun boards and paddle well in small waves. The Nitro is a great little Groveler fast and responsive.

bushkey I agree with you that sometimes Groveler's can get to wide and thick. They don't perform well in the pocket and they have a tendency to loose speed off the bottom for sure. Thanks for your experience on the Psycho Nitro. Cheers
bushkey
bushkey - 6 years ago
The PN was a modern fast down the line more fishy board and everytime a went to dig into the wave for a turn/snap, I would loos speed and the board wouldnt come around well enough for me. Much Wider and thicker then the Nitro. More of a fishy feel. The new Nitro is a "Compact" high performance shorty that maintains its speed out of turns. I love the forward width for small waves on the Nitro. But does not feel wide while snapping a turn

Matt Levy I would imagine you are using a Small John John right? Those fins are really stiff and I only recommend them in bigger more powerful waves. You would be better off getting a set of Jordy Small as a great all around Fin.

On smaller days you might want to consider a Medium fin like the AM1 Blackstix 3.0..

Yah no problem. Also I was wondering what fins you think I should throw in my board. It's 5'6 Dx1(by Dhd)18 in. wide and like 22 L with future fin plugs. I ride it in everything and typically where I usually surf it feels like I have no drive.
