Surf the whole mountain. A tapered fish shape with a short tail for rear foot steering in deep snow and tight trees, a longer nose for stability at speed and biaxial glass for a smooth surfy feel. A very backcountry specific snowboard for those of us with enough money to afford a quiver decks.
The new Slash is for those riders who want to flow with the whole mountain, pumping each piece of tranny for more speed and more power. Just like a big wave surfer or pool skater the shape of the slash is designed to enhance your riding and your experience. It has a traditional shaped, elongated nose to provide plenty of surface area for floating without making the board hard to turn in longer lengths. The set back stance gives a natural feeling in powder yet versatile enough to carve up the groomers. This is the type of board that will transform your riding into what legends are made of.
