The SLASH has a natural presence in snowboarding. It is elementary to a skillful approach. It is to navigate with power and style. Here the laws of nature rule in the action of the riders.
From early on in my pro career I have always had an interest and fortunately an opportunity to design the boards I rode. From the artwork to the technologies and construction techniques, the very essence of my boards has been about creating a medium that expresses personality.
SLASH IS A PLATFORM DEDICATED TO PROGRESSION, INDIVIDUALITY AND STANDARDS.
Through Slash we facilitate the highest demands of quality through a quiver of boards designed for a variety of conditions.
1997 I got involved with board development and was able to follow my dream as a professional rider since. 15 years into the industry has allowed me to create SLASH Snowboards.
