We pick up the Salomon 2024 Super 8 Snowboard for a high-powered daily cruiser that kills it on icy groomers and pow-choked chutes. Backseat Camber brings both explosive turning power and playfulness in powder, while Rocket Science Shaping increases its waist width for more stability and float. This allows us to downsize a few centimeters for quick-turning agility when we're banking between trees and negotiating narrow chutes. Slight tapering allows the tail to naturally sink while the buoyant nose effortlessly planes across the snow. Salomon also added in the smooth edge-to-edge feel of a quadratic sidecut and fast glide of a sintered base for crushing big mountain laps and high-speed groomers with tons of control.
