In Gigi’s mission to make snowboarding more accessible to the masses we’ve got some huge news.
Now manufactured using only BIAX fibreglass to make it torsionally softer, the Happy Place is a unisex board. This hybrid camber profile with camber between the feet and lifted tips – makes it easy to turn and correct in the park.
The visible carbon-bon X added on nose and tail give you that amazing pop and responsiveness. It‘s a favourite from total beginners to intermediate. It‘s everyone‘s Happy Place.
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.

CamRock features a loaded camber section between the feet with a small flat section underfoot and rockered tips. The camber section maintains stability between the feet, while the flat areas underfoot let you load up ollies and the rockered tips offer forgiveness. This creates a very playful, easy turning board.
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.
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.
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.
SINTERED BASE 7500
Our Sintered quality base is fast, durable and requires less waxing. We believe in using the best possible materials in our boards.
BELT FINISH
The belt finish gets your base optimized before it’s fully waxed.
PROGRESSIVE SIDECUT
Our progressive sidecut design blends many radii and smooth contact points for buttery smooth turn initiation, edge-to-edge transition and edge hold. It’s different for each model and matches the sidecut to the board’s specific camber profile.
IMPACT DAMPENING
A vibration dampening rubber used between the steel edge and the sidewall. Absorbs impacts only to a very small degree, its main purpose is to act as an adhesion layer between the edge and sidewall to prevent the possibility of delamination.
STEEL EDGES
We build our edges with 35% more steel content than the average. They are simply stronger and more durable than the alternative.
FACTORY WAXED
All Slash boards are factory waxed with OneBallJay wax and ready to shred straight out of the wrapper.
TIP PROTECTORS
Thin, light and surprisingly strong aluminum protectors that cap the base and edge at the tip and tail to protect the board from impacts.
KICK STAND
Our Original Identity shape saves material and weight and also stands up without tipping over like rounded boards do!
