Flex
Flex Rating: 3 (1 Soft – 5 Stiff) This all mountain board features a medium flex rating of 3 with a directional twin shape that combines the freestyle freedom of a twin with the high-speed drive of a directional flex.
Construction and Core
The Salomon Answer Snowboard features a Popster Core Profile that harnesses that power of the wood’s natural snap and pop for more air time and bigger ollies. BA Medium Density fiberglass layers also guarantee a consistent quality level for a light and lively board, with bamboo laminates that make the board extremely strong, yet both flexible and snappy.
Base
The Sintered EG Base is engineered for super fast gliding in everything from fresh pow to sticky spring snow, providing superior wax retention, strengthened impact resistance and a turbocharged glide. The Fine Stone Grind works with the Sintered EG Base to speed up in powder or softer snow conditions.
Sidewalls and Edges
ABC wrapper is a patented process that uses structural bamboo veneers to reduce fiberglass and resin content, replacing traditional ABS sidewalls with waterproof rods and reducing the plastic content of each board by 40%. Bamboo and rubber rails add durability and increase power distribution with 100% natural bamboo strips topped with aluminum, lighter and livelier than regular ABS and increasing bonding power while protecting from edge blow out. The quadratic sidecut blends elliptic curves for easy turn initiation, effortless direction changes and fluid edge to edge transitions.
