NITRO – The official outerwear partner of the Shape Academy
16.02.2017

If you spend the entire winter in the mountains, shaping and shredding every single day, you definitely need functional and enduring outerwear. That’s why the crew of the Shape Academy is equipped with NITRO outerwear every season – and you can bet no one tests their material  more thoroughly.

NITRO celebrates "28 Winters" and QParks celebrates "15 Years For Freestyle". This season we profit from each other’s know-how and experience again – working together in the mountains. You will recognize the crew of the Shape Academy by their experienced handling of the shape tool and by their stylish NITRO outerwear.

The shapers are the first ones on the mountain in the morning, doing the park check, then shredding and shaping the park throughout the day – from the beginning of the season to the end: Spending their day in the outdoor office at both freezing winter temperatures and warm, sunny spring days. This means that they have special demands on their outerwear: This season, the crew of the Shape Academy wears the jacket "Yukon" and the pants "Incline Emerald". The material keeps them warm and dry at every weather condition and every possible situation. And it guarantees the needed flexibility and range of motion while shaping and shredding for work.

Additionally, the NITRO outerwear has some really cool features: Both the jacket and the pants have a 15.000 mm waterproofing and are fully seam sealed. The cargo pockets of the „Incline Emerald“ provide enough space for all tools one might need in the mountains, whereas the jacket „Yukon“ provides additional space for professionals. On top, the integrated powder skirt doesn’t do any harm either when your life is revolving around the slogan work hard, play hard.

After the shapers strained their outerwear for a full winter in the mountains and tested the materials thoroughly, NITRO gets feedback – therefore, their products will be even better fitted for their special needs next season. More than 220 crew members of the Shape Academy are out in their outdoor office this season, testing the „shape-ability“ and „shred-ability“ of their NITRO outerwear.
