Salomon Super8 Snowboard 2016

Featuring a new shape for euphoric flotation and Rocket Science--a wider design for wild, loose maneuverability --the Salomon Super8 Snowboard is your ideal all-mountain ride this winter. Inspired by Wolle Nyvelt's surfy style and Josh Dirksen's unmistakable power and speed, the Salomon Super8 will help you get after it with big turns that don't break the bank. The Super 8's Quadratic Sidecut makes edge-to-edge mobility a dream while Backseat Camber places positive camber beneath your back foot--pair this hybrid design with rocker in the tip and tail and you'll have to try hard not to float in the powder when the snow starts falling.

Product Details

Rocker Type

Backseat CamberCamber under your back foot and a flat section at the nose, coupled with rocker at the tip and tail lends you maximum control for carving on groomers and a surf-like feel in the powder.

Shape

Laminates

Ghost Basalt StringersBasalt stringers are sewn into a triax layer for durable pop, control and damp ride at speed, and easy maneuverability when you're keeping it mellow.

Biax MDMedium density European-made fiberglass layers guarantee a consistent quality level, for light and lively boards.

Sidewalls

Royal Rubber Pads4mm Soft Royal Rubber (AKA extra thick) blocks inserted into the high-pressure zones of the board's ABS Sidewalls dampen vibration and mellow big impacts.

Base
