Salomon Powder Snake Snowboard 2013

Whether conditions call for an extreme powder day or it hasn't snowed for over a month and the mountain is pure ice, the Salomon Powder Snake will come through in the clutch. The Pow Rocker will keep you afloat in even the deepest powder while the All Mountain Edge Bevel allows to you hold a secure edge no matter what the snow pack looks like. If you want to outsmart Mother Nature then check out the Salomon Powder Snake Snowboard.
Rocker Type
Pow Rocker - Flat profile between the feet for stability with ample rocker at tip and tail for max floatation
Flex
Flex Rating (1 Soft - 10 Stiff) - 5, a medium flex for a balance of playfulness and performance
Shape
Tapered Twin - Centered stance with a tapered tail to aid in tip float
Sidecut
Quadratic - A blend of elliptic curves for easy turn initiation, effortless direction changes and fluid edge-to-edge transitions
Core
Aspen Strong - These boards have CNC-selected, high density FSC certified wood strips for the inserts and rail zones that results in improved impact resistance and a predictable flex from opening day to spring slush.
Popster - Popster's shaped core maximizes the natural snap of wood - like the kicktail of your skateboard built into your snowboard!
Laminates
BA MD - Medium Density European-made fiberglass guarantees a consistent quality level for light and lively performance.
Sidewalls
Royal Rubber Pads - 4 mm soft Royal Rubber blocks inserted into the high-pressure zones of the ABS sidewalls dampen vibration and soften big impacts
Base
Sintered - An industry standard for quality base materials. Provides a moderate balance between the speed created by a hard surface and good wax retention.
Standard Stone Finish - Salomon's Basic Stone Finish is the equal of most other manufacturer's high end finish.
Edges
All Mountain Edge Bevel - Detuned tip and tail with a 1 degree edge bevel in key parts of the sidecut and a 2 degree bevel between the feet. Solid edge hold with no hang ups.

Comments about Salomon Powder Snake Snowboard 2013:

Rode this board for the first time in Hakuba, Japan, after I felt that my GNU Riders Choice 151.5 was just too short and squirrelly-feeling for the steep runs.

I was surprised by the board's light weight for it's size (160cm).

I weigh 155 lbs, so a 160cm is a bit oversized for me, but it made the board feel very stable at high speed, and very floaty in the powder (the wide rockered nose and tail also helps float the board in powder). The board's tapered shape made it very steerable into tight turns despite the longer length. This was very helpful when I wandered onto mogul runs.

Also, the board felt very light, strapped to my feet, maybe even a little lighter than the shorter GNU, so I was still able to do 180s (the most rotation I am capable of landing reliably) off of flats, side hits, hip jumps, and small kickers. It was all real snow in Japan, so I wasn't afraid to fall while attempting stuff.

The board's flat contour (no camber) between the bindings makes it very forgiving all over the mountain. But this board was noticeably less poppy than my GNU Riders Choice with C2BTX camber. I can't ollie as high when riding the Powder Snake, but I feel a little more confident popping off the lip of kickers, especially when I'm trying to spin, due to the better stability.

Overall, I think it's the perfect board when I want to ride a mix of powder and park. I feel like I can bomb down anything, cut through a powder stash with speed and control, and not be afraid to go airborne at any time.

And the pointy tips look rad!
