SALOMON HPS - LOUIF PARADIS SNOWBOARD 2026

Louif describes his riding as hybrid, often combining elements of powder and manufactured structures, blending both street and freeride skills. Using his shaping expertise and Lou’s critical feedback during the proto process, Wolle created this tapered directional board built for freestyle tactics in deep terrain, satisfying Lou’s hybrid demand.

Details

• Shape: Tapered directional - Tail width is slightly tapered (2-20mm). This loosens up turning initiation and improves floatation in deeper snow without sacrificing edge hold on hardpack.
• Rock Out Camber: Flat between your bindings for stability, Camber near the feet for response and a rocker on the tip/tail for pressability.
• Quadralizer: Explosive combination of Equalizer and Quadratic allows high speed carving as well as superior edge control in tight spots.
• ABC Wrapper: More pop, less plastic! ABC Wrapper is a patented process using structural wood veneers to reduce fiberglass and resin content in each board by 40%.
• Ghost Green Core: Ghost Green Core components have been selected and designed to optimize pop and reduce weight while utilizing attributes of a super light wood.
• Popster: The core is strategically milled inside of the insert packs, allowing the board to flex more naturally underfoot and transfer energy into the nose and tail for added pop.
• Base: 50% recycled sintered base - 50% recycled base materials! Reducing waste without sacrificing glide!
• Fine stone finish: Our fine stone finish is particularly efficient on our Sintered EG base, speed up in powder or softer snow conditions.
• Natural wax: A paraffin-free wax compound made from natural ingredients. A non-pollutant compound held to the highest standards of glide speed.
• All-Mountain EB: All-Mountain ready, right out of the wrapper. Equipped with a 1-degree bevel in the nose and tail and a 2-degree bevel between the feet for superior edge hold and no hang ups.
• Inserts: 2 x 4 Inserts
• Recycled ABS 50%: Recycled ABS is used to reduce the impact of petroleum based materials.
• BIAX MD fiberglass: Medium density European-made fiberglass layers guarantee a consistent quality level, for light and lively boards.
• 30% Bio-based resin: This bio-epoxy resin is made with 30% of its molecular structure derived from plants.
