NAGARE STIX PLAY 戯

A 162 cm camber all-rounder for linking ollies, drops, wall hits and high-speed carves, and riding straight on into powder.

戯 (GI) is the camber model of Takaharu Nakai's NAGARE STIX, released for 2026-27 after more than a year of testing.

Shop test reports call it, in effect, the successor to Nakai's Salomon HPS signature boards: a high-performance board that links ollies off terrain, drop-ins, upward jumps off walls and transitions, and high-speed carving one after another, and goes straight into powder as well; an all-round board in the snowboarding sense. It is slightly longer than the 流 (RYU) with a wider tail, and its rebound is easier to feel on an ollie. One tester noted that although the spec sheet says only "camber", it rides like a nose rocker with a low camber. Nakai is reported to ride the 流 on the piste and the 戯 in the mountains.

Official spec card: overall length 1620 mm, nose length 285, tail length 150, nose width 310, waist 263, tail width 294, multi-radius sidecut 9.5 / 8.3 m, camber, stance 490 / 530 / 570 mm, flex 4.

Produced in small numbers; shops reported their 2026-27 allocation sold out on pre-order.
