Salomon Super 8 Pro 2023 - Men's Snowboard
2023 Salomon Super 8 Pro Snowboard
The Super 8 Pro is the essence of speed and agility in a freeride board. Using Salomon's fastest, Area 51 base material and Damplifier Lite, this tapered directional shape with Backseat Camber is extremely agile in deep snow and groomers alike, with an uncanny ability to power through variable terrain. A wider shape allows the rider to size down 3-4 cm.
Camber Profile
Backseat CamberĀ āĀ Camber 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 Rating ā 4/5 (1=Soft,5=Stiff)
Shape
Tapered DirectionalĀ āĀ Tail width is slightly tapered (2-20mm). This loosens up turning initiation and improves floatation in deeper snow without sacrificing edge hold on hardpack.
Quadratic SidecutĀ āĀ Quadratic 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
PopsterĀ āĀ Popster's shaped core profile thins out under foot and thickens outside your bindings before tapering again at tip and tail to maximize the natural snap and pop of wood. Feels like your skateboard kicktail finally connected with your snowboard.
Aspen Select CoreĀ āĀ Every single FSC certified wood strip is hand selected to ensure unparalleled core quality and lightness.
FSCĀ® Certified Wood Core
Laminates
C/FX BasaltĀ āĀ Take down of the C/FX superfiber. This version of the C/FX is composed of Basalt & fiber glass for power and smooth ride.
Damplifier LiteĀ āĀ Lightweight 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.
Biaxial Medium Density FiberglassĀ āĀ Medium density European-made fiberglass layers guarantee a consistent quality level, for light and lively boards.
Sidewalls
Gunslinger SidewallsĀ āĀ These sidewalls implement carbon inlays that run the full length of the board to meet the reaction and shock absorption needs of all riders.
Base
Sintered EGĀ āĀ Engineered for a super fast glide in everything from fresh pow to sticky spring snow. Sintered material provides superior wax retention, Gallium strengthens impact resistance, and the Electra finish gives a turbocharged glide
Area 51 FinishĀ āĀ Built to go faster and fly higher, the Area 51 base is a high-density sintered base laced with a super secret wax formula and a specially engineered factory finish designed for air time and durability.
Edges
All-Mountain Edge BevelĀ āĀ A 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.
Binding Compatibility
2 x 4 Insert Pattern
