{"product_id":"salomon-highpath-snowboard-2027","title":"Salomon Highpath Snowboard 2027","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe Salomon Highpath is a high-performance all-mountain and freeride snowboard designed for intermediate to advanced riders who want speed, stability and precision across a variety of terrain. Built with a directional shape and a stiffer flex, the Highpath is made for confident riders who enjoy charging groomers, carving powerful turns and exploring off-piste lines. Its tapered directional profile helps improve float in powder while maintaining excellent control and responsiveness on hardpack and mixed snow conditions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAt the core of the Highpath’s performance is Salomon’s ‘Rock Out’ Camber profile, which blends flat sections between the bindings with camber underfoot and rocker at the tip and tail. This design provides strong edge hold and responsiveness while adding a touch of forgiveness for smoother turn initiation. Its tapered directional shape improves powder float and enhances control in freeride conditions, making the board especially effective for riders who like to venture off groomed runs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Highpath also features a premium construction that combines performance with sustainability. Salomon incorporates recycled and bio-based materials into the board’s build, reducing environmental impact without compromising ride quality. The Popster core profile adds energy and snap for lively edge transitions, while basalt and fibreglass reinforcements create a damp yet responsive feel that absorbs chatter in rough conditions. A sintered base rounds out the package, delivering excellent speed and durability for riders who demand consistent performance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOn snow, the Highpath excels in stability, carving power and versatility across all-mountain terrain. It performs especially well in powder and chopped snow thanks to its directional taper and damp flex pattern. While it is less suited to freestyle-focused park riding or riders who spend a lot of time riding switch, it shines for those who prioritise speed, edge control and freeride performance. Overall, the Salomon Highpath is an excellent choice for riders seeking a powerful, confidence-inspiring snowboard that can handle everything from hard-charging groomer laps to powder days.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTech:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAbility:\u003c\/strong\u003e Intermediate+ All Mountain \/ Freeride\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlex:\u003c\/strong\u003e Rating 4\/5 (Stiff)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRock Out Camber Bend:\u003c\/strong\u003e Flat between your bindings for stability, Camber near the feet for response and a rocker on the tip\/tail for pressability.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTapered Directional Shape, 20mm Setback:\u003c\/strong\u003e Features a nose wider than the tail, with a set-back stance to maximise powder float and carving performance.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong style=\"font-size: 0.875rem;\"\u003eSintered Base:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 0.875rem;\"\u003e An industry standard for quality sintered base materials.
