Stability
Cross Profile features a camber dominant area throughout most of the board for stability at high speeds, in addition to a rocker area in the tip and tail for enhanced float.
Control
A Quadratic sidecut with a blend of elliptic curves provides easy turn initiation, superior control on hard pack, and quick edge-to-edge transmission.
Construction
Cork Rails help reduce the use of petroleum-based products while providing a superior solution for dampening underfoot, ensuring a smooth and low impact ride all season long.
Features & Fabrics
BOARD PROFILE
- Cross Profile: Camber between the feet for better control, pop and landing stability. Rocker on tip & tail for effortless floatation forward and switch.
SHAPE
- Tapered directional: Tail width is slightly tapered (2-20mm). This loosens up turning initiation and improves floatation in deeper snow without sacrificing edge hold on hardpack.
SIDECUT TYPE
- Quadratic: A blend of elliptic curves for easy turn initiation, effortless direction changes and fluid edge to edge transitions.
BASE MATERIAL
- Extruded EG: A harder compound than Extruded, Salomon Extruded EG takes the easy maintenance of a non-sintered base and adds Electra for increased gliding characteristics.
CORE CONSTRUCTION
- Aspen Strong: CNC-selected high-density wood strips for the inserts and rail zones results in improved impact resistance and a predictable flex from opening day to spring slush.
- Popster: The core is strategically milled inside of the insert packs, allowing the board to flex more naturally underfoot and transfer energy into the nose and tail for added pop.
BASE FINISHING
- Medium stone finish: A medium structure finish that improves our fast sintered base glide. Quicker in all snow conditions, from cold morning corduroy to spring slush.
- Natural wax: A paraffin-free wax compound made from natural ingredients. A non-pollutant compound held to the highest standards of glide speed.
EDGE FINISHING
- All-Mountain EB: All-Mountain ready, right out of the wrapper. Equipped with a 1-degree bevel in the nose and tail and a 2-degree bevel between the feet for superior edge hold and no hang ups.
INSERTS
- 4X2 Inserts
SUSPENSION
- Royal Cork Pads: Cork blocks inserted into the high-pressure zones of our ABS Sidewalls dampen vibration and mellows the big impacts.
FIBER AND RESIN
- BIAX LD fiberglass: The use of Low-density fibers allows us to produce lighter boards that keep their playful forgiving flex forever.
