Snowboard - Salomon Fastlane 170
If you are looking for a fast and responsive snowboard for the whole mountain, you have come to the right place. Fastlane from Salomon is a modern all-mountain board with a clear freeride feel, built for speed, precision and powerful riding. The slightly stiffer flex combined with the Backseat camber profile gives a stable and confident feeling when going fast, without being too demanding.
The responsive core provides good pressure out of the turns while the board feels lively underfoot. Directional shape with a slightly wider nose helps with float in looser snow, while keeping the line stable on harder surfaces.
Salomon Fastlane is suitable for riders who want a stable and fast board that thrives best when it goes fast and when you are on edge. An all-mountain board with a clear direction towards carving and freeride.
The board is waxed and sanded at the factory, ready for the mountain!
Flex: Hard 8/10
Stiffer flex that is adapted to handle the whole mountain.
The scale is built on the principle that 1 is "Soft and Playful" while 10 is "Hard and Responsive"
Area of use:
Salomon Fastlane is for those who want a board that performs at its best all over the mountain and makes demands. A dominant in the all mountain freeride segment simply.
Recommended level:
Intermediate-Advanced
Shape:
Tapered Directional: The tail is narrower and the nose is wider to make it easier to turn while the board floats better in loose snow.
Quadratic sidecut : Better control on hard packed snow, faster edge to edge and easier to turn with.
Profile:
Backseat Camber : The camber is focused around the rearfoot for precision and control, with flat segments under the forefoot for superior flotation in deep snow. The best of both worlds.
Construction:
Sintered Base: Sintered base made from 50% recycled material. For ultimate gliding properties and better wax absorption. Topped on this is a medium structure to make the board glide even better in all snow conditions, from cold corduroy to spring slush. Salomon uses a paraffin-free wax made from natural ingredients for the best glide and to save the environment.
Popster: The core is milled at strategic points for a more natural flex underfoot that transfers energy to the nose and tail for extra pop.
