Dave, here at The House. Before we get started on this super awesome Salvador Sanchez board from Salomon, I'm going to give you a little taste of behind-the-scenes, what goes on out behind the camera. And how I get so energetic for these videos when I'm doing, oh, say, 200 a day. It's Dollar Store energy, nothing but the grape flavor. You know, since it's a dollar, you figure you got to make up for the fact that, you know, it's not, it's two dollars less expensive than the three dollar stuff, so you drink two. Like this. Ah. All right. All jazzed, ready to talk about Salvador Sanchez. Basically, Salomon took their extremely popular Sanchez board, gave it a reverse camber, or a rocker pattern. They do it pretty cool on this one. It's going to be pretty flat between the binding positions and then it kicks ever so slightly up at the nose and the tail. That's really nice because when you're out in most snow conditions you're still going to have full base contact. It's not wackily kicked up like a lot of them are. From there, you've got the Salomon durability that they've always had with their boards. Really, really tough stuff. The purple sections, here, you can see the rubber dampening foil that they use just underneath the bindings. And that's really going to be helpful as far as giving the board a little bit more suspension when you're riding icy, hard-pack terrain. It's also going to absorb kinks on rails a little bit better too. And, just create a better, you know, a little bit less of a set-down stress when you're going down on the metal. From there, you've got really, really sick graphics on this one, by Tech Norris. Pretty sweet stuff. You've got purple dice. You've got a few little windows, you can see into the inlay. Other than that, this is a really, really sharp looking board. To the base. You've got, basically, an extruded base. Really good clarity to it. It's going to be designed to be pretty maintenance-free. If it does get a gouge from a rock or a rail, you can really easily fill it in. On this one, the Salomon special formula, if you get it scratched up from rails and stuff like that, it's still going to be really fast out there too. Obviously, on this one you're looking at a twin shape, flex, side-cut, stance, everything. Its got radial side-cut. Pretty decent radial. It can definitely handle its own on the jumps and carving around the resort too. But this thing is definitely a park rat by trait. A super good board. We sell through it every single year, especially with this newer model with the hot limited graphic on it. You've got to pick this one up early, if you want to play. Salvador Sanchez, Salomon.

The Salomon Salvatore Sanchez Rocker Snowboard brings all the dirty performance of a traditional Sanchez into a rocker shape. Go bang rails, nose press boxes or reinvent the possibilities of a high school handrail with the Salomon Salvatore Sanchez Rocker Snowboard.
Salomon took their legendary Sanchez down South and it got weird. Reverse camber? Yep. Salomon's stock fave park board just got inverted with Rocker tech for turning every run into a jibfest of grabs and slashes, presses and bonks. The Radial sidecut of the Salvatore Sanchez make sense for modern park and pipe riding, switch it up and the board rides the same forwards and backwards. With a soft flex this board is an absolute park and jibbing monster, pick one up and show that park or handrail who is the new boss!

The Salomon Salvatore Sanchez could be called the nastier version of the Sanchez. The rocker shape is proven to provide the most pleasure and least resistance as you press and slide your way through park and urban features. Act upon urges to enter a situation with no regard for the pain that may follow on this rocker brother to the Sanchez.
