Camber Profile
- Rock Out Camber: Flat between the feet for stability, camber underfoot for pop and precision, and rocker at the tip and tail for a perfect blend of power, float, and forgiveness across all terrain.
Flex
- 4/5 (Medium-Stiff): A responsive flex built to handle high-speed lines, big jumps, and aggressive all-mountain riding while still maintaining a smooth, adaptable feel.
Shape
- Directional Twin: Twin shape and flex centered between the contact points with a setback stance for added float and drive without losing switch performance.
- EQ Rad Sidecut: Combines Equalizer and radial lines for a mix of precision and forgiveness, providing smooth turns and consistent edge grip.
Core
- Aspen SLCT Core: Each strip of wood is hand-selected for premium consistency, lightweight strength, and lively flex underfoot.
- Popster Eco Booster: Carbon and bamboo stringers are strategically profiled to maximize natural pop and energy while maintaining a sustainable design.
Laminates
- BA MD Fiberglass: A mid-density fiberglass weave providing consistent flex, durability, and control across varied terrain.
- Royal Rubber Rails: Soft rubber dampening inserts along the sidewalls absorb vibration, smooth chatter, and improve board feel at speed.
- 30% Bio-Based Resin: Eco-friendly resin blend that minimizes petroleum use while retaining high durability and snappy response.
Base
- Sintered EG Base: High-end sintered material enhanced with Electra and Gallium for faster glide, excellent wax retention, and superior impact resistance.
- Medium Stone Finish: Factory stone grind provides smooth glide and consistent performance across all snow textures.
- Natural Wax: Factory pre-waxed with an all-natural formula for eco-conscious performance and immediate rideability.
Additional Features
- All-Mountain Edge Bevel: 2° edge bevel between the feet and 3° at the tip and tail creates grip where you need it and forgiveness where you don’t.
- Gunslinger Sidewalls: Carbon inlays enhance pop and precision while reducing vibration for a smooth, powerful ride.
Mounting System
- 2x4 Inserts: Standard insert pattern allowing wide stance adjustability and compatibility with most snowboard bindings.
Warranty
- 2 Year: Backed by Salomon’s two-year limited warranty covering materials and craftsmanship.
