2025 Salomon HPS - Louif Paradis Snowboard
The Salomon HPS Louif Paradis Snowboard is an energized freeride snowboard offering all the float you need for the deepest powder! This hybrid board features a unique blunt nose and tail in a tapered design with 20mm of setback and deep tip rocker for float. With a combination of Salomon's Popster construction and bamboo in the layup, this energetic freerider is ready to bring the heat when the snow starts stacking up.
Rocker Type
Rock Out Camber – Flat between your bindings for stability, camber near the feet for response, and rocker on the tip/tail for pressability.
Flex
Flex Rating – 4 (1 Soft - 5 Stiff)
Shape
Quadralizer Sidecut – Explosive combination of Equalizer and Quadratic sidecuts allows high speed carving as well as superior edge control in tight spots.
Tapered Directional – Tail width is slightly tapered (2-20mm). This loosens up turning initiation and improves floatation in deeper snow without sacrificing edge hold on hardpack.
Core
Ghost Green Core – Ghost Green Core components have been selected and designed to optimize pop and reduce weight while utilizing sustainable attributes of a super light paulownia wood.
Popster – Popster'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
ABC Wrapper – More dampening, less plastic ! ABC Wrapper is a process using wood veneers to reduce fiberglass in each board.
Biaxial Medium Density Fiberglass – Medium density European-made fiberglass layers guarantee a consistent quality level, for light and lively boards.
Sidewalls
Recycled ABS Sidewalls – The 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 Base – 50% recycled base materials! Reducing waste without sacrificing glide!
Fine Stone Finish – Fine stone finish helps speed up in powder or softer snow conditions.
Edges
All-Mountain Edge Bevel – 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.
Additional Features
30% Bio-based Resin – High performance with low environmental impact, this bio-based resin is made with 30% of its molecular structure derived from plants.
