Why We Like The Salomon Super 8 Pro Snowboard
When speed and agility are a must, we reach for the Salomon Super 8 Pro Snowboard. Built with the fastest Area 51 base, this board flies down groomers and floats effortlessly in deep snow. The tapered directional shape and Backseat Camber provide the control we need for powerful carving, while the Damplifier Lite absorbs shocks for a smoother ride through variable terrain. With its wider design, the Super 8 Pro lets us size down and still maintain stability and precision, making it the go-to board for advanced freeriders who demand top performance in all conditions.
