After a three year hiatus we welcome the Floater back to the fold.
This fully directional, flat cambered freeride board boasts a lifted nose and tapered swallow tail. Combine these elements and there is no doubt as to why we arrived at the name Floater.
Its low profile and singular sidecut make the Floater the board of choice for carving kings and off piste protagonists alike.
Welcome back, old friend.
Graphic: Introducing the Blank series from Slash. Boards made with a clean and timeless design to live on snowboard shop shelves indefinitely. Strikingly subtle, yet bright and bold. The black lines on the edges signify the board's effective edge and Gigi's added loads of techy info for shop staff on the top sheet: stiffness rating, camber profile, camber type and symbols to signify contact points, axis point and set back inserts.
TopART brings graphics to life from our favourite artists, and it’s an easy DIY job that’ll make your board stand out from the crowd.
Artist info:
Gold: Bling bling baby with a golden glow
Silver: For if silver bling is your thing
Devil: We analyzed newest market research surveys to create with our creative creation department this sick graphic, throwing back to our 2013 Happy Place design making this the Slash product you really want!
RTC: A totally hand drawn Ryan Travis Christian original
Blotto: Legendary photographer Blotto has been shooting Gigi for 2 decades, so it was only natural we let him loose on TopART
The Backseat CamRock design places rocker in the nose and a slight amount in the tail with positive camber in between. This setback design delivers camber stability and control between the feet and in the tail, with the added float and maneuverability of the rockered nose.
FLEX
INGREDIENTS
CARBONBON
Pure carbon fiber slabs placed in a cross pattern under the inserts between the base and the core to enhance responsiveness, pop, torsional stiffness and amplify foot movement.
TRI-AX FIBERGLASS
Triax fiberglass is the time-tested classic. It features a three-way weave of premium fibers with strands running at 45-degree angles. It provides superior pop, consistent torsional flex, and more overall response.
POP WOODCORE
Arranged with premium strips of poplar for a lightweight and smooth flex with added beech hardwood stringers tip to tail through the inserts for power transfer and durability.
BI-AX FIBERGLASS
Biax fiberglass is a two-way weave of fiberglass with strands running every 90-degrees. It’s more forgiving, easier to flex and highly versatile for all terrain types.
SINTERED BASE 7200
Our Sintered quality base is fast, durable and requires less waxing. We believe in using the best possible materials in our boards.
DIAMOND STONE FINISH
We add a slight diamond-structured stone grind to the base to maximize glide and optimize durability. It eliminates the slow, suction cup feel that comes with one-dimensional base finishes.
SINGULAR SIDECUT
A predictable and powerful sidecut with a single radius that makes for consistent turns. It’s ideal for intermediate and advanced riders who already know how to carve a turn, like to ride fast, and desire strong edge hold.
ULTIMATE TRACTION
This small counter radius (bump) placed in the middle of the board’s sidecut improves edge hold without creating drag or strange edge grip. It adds extra bite on ice and turns regular turns into confident carves.
FLOAT INSERTS
An extra set of inserts set way back for those super deep days.
