The Salomon Fastlane is a freeride snowboard for advanced riders on steep, deep and difficult terrain. It has a tapered directional shape, a pin tail and backseat camber. These give float in powder and control on the way down. The flex is aggressive, and the board stays stable at high speeds.
The laminate combines B/FX Ultra, which uses flax and carbon fibers, with BA MD medium density fiberglass. Popster mills the core inside the inserts so the board flexes more naturally and passes energy to the nose and tail for extra pop. Damplifier adds an ABS and cork insert in the nose to absorb vibration. The resin is 30% plant-based.
Camber sits under the back foot for precision and control, and flat sections under the front foot add float in deep snow. The quadratic sidecut is a mix of elliptic curves for smooth turn initiation and fluid edge-to-edge transitions. The core is made from hand-selected Aspen wood strips. Base graphics are random.
