Description
The Salomon Super 8 Snowboard is a powerful, directional ripper for riders bringing the heat every time they hit the mountain. Everything about this board is designed to go bigger and faster – from the damp-but-light C/FX Basalt laminate to the cork Damplifier inserts in the tip and tail. It comes with Salomon’s Backseat Camber profile, providing tons of pop and edge hold under the cambered back foot, and surfy planing from the wide flat front. From big mountain lines to side hit snipes, the Super 8 is the free-spirited freerider you’ve been waiting for.
Product Details
Rocker Type
Backseat CamberCamber loaded under the back foot for precision and control, with flat segments under the front foot for superior floatation in deep snow. The best of both worlds!
Flex
Flex Rating4 (1 Soft – 5 Stiff)
Shape
Tapered DirectionalTail width is slightly tapered (2-20mm). This loosens up turning initiation and improves floatation in deeper snow without sacrificing edge hold on hardpack.
Quadratic SidecutQuadratic sidecuts use 3 or more radii instead of a continuous radial sidecut. The radii of the sidecut is shallower at the ends and deeper in the middle, which promotes easier turn initiation.
Core
Aspen SLCT CoreEvery single wood strip is hand selected to ensure unparalleled core quality and lightness.
PopsterPopster’s shaped core profile is strategically milled inside of the insert packs, allowing the board to flex more naturally underfoot and transfer energy into the nose and tail for added pop.
Laminates
Biaxial Medium Density FiberglassMedium density European-made fiberglass layers guarantee a consistent quality level, for light and lively boards.
C/FX BasaltA patented combination of fiberglass and basalt designed to provide an optimal ratio of weight, power, and dampening.
DamplifierLightweight honey comb materials and cork combined and strategically placed in the tip and tail for better flotation, less inertia for easier steering, more control, and increased dampening and shock resistance.
Sidewalls
Recycled ABS SidewallsThe molecular structure of ABS can be described as a concrete bar with rubber nuggets inside, combining toughness for energy transfer and dampening properties for impact absorption.
Base
50% Recycled Sintered Base50% recycled base materials! Reducing waste without sacrificing glide!
Fine Stone FinishFine stone finish helps speed up in powder or softer snow conditions.
Edges
All-Mountain Edge BevelA 1 edge holding tune throughout the key parts of the sidecut meets a 2 bevel between the feet. This delivers the most solid edge hold with no hang-ups.
