Salomon Powder Snake Snowboard - 2011/2012
The Salomon Powder Snake is a park board built for the backcountry. This mid-stiff snowboard is damp enough to crush through some serious chunder and playful enough to pop up and mash pillow lines. Twin shape paired with a directional flex enhances freestyle abilities and high-speed drive; centered stance lets you ride regular or switch equally well. Flat camber is best for floating and landing in powder; quadratic sidecut ensures pressure is evenly applied to the edges for easy, smooth turning. Distinctive nose and tail shape gives the board a unique look; long kick nose provides extra float in powder. Aspen Strong core places precisely selected, high-density wood strips only at the inserts and rails for maximum impact resistance and long-lasting, predictable board flex. Medium-density, European-made fiberglass layers guarantee a consistent quality level for light and lively boards. Popster core profile increases energy and converts unpredictable snap to perfectly energized pop. Sintered base is engineered for a superfast glide in everything from fresh pow to sticky spring snow; sintered material provides superior wax retention. Basic stone-ground finish is durable and long-lasting. .
