Salomon Answer Snowboard 2009: Forward thinking is the answer these days and this board will ensure the future of snowboarding. A responsive, well-dampened directional twin with a soft-medium flex, the Salomon Answer Snowboard is designed to ride everything the mountain has to offer. Eco gets egalitarian with this mind-flexing freestyle ride.
  • The Salomon patented “Popster” core profile is an ingenious solution to getting more pop out of a board without adding cost, weight or unnecessary stiffness. The Popster increases energy and converts unpredictable snap to perfectly energized pop.
  • Bamboo Laminates: The magic of bamboo lays in its natural linear fibers, making it light and extremely strong, yet still flexible and snappy.
  • Sintered 2000 Base: An industry standard for quality sintered base materials. Provides a moderate balance between the speed created by a hard surface and good wax retention. Medium stone finish: A medium structure finish that improves our fast sintered base glide. Quicker in all snow conditions, from cold morning corduroy to spring slush. Eco-friendly non-petroleum based wax on base so all you do it scrape and shred.
  • Shape: Directional twin for freestyle abilities paired with a directional flex for drive at high-speed. Binding stance is set back from center slightly.

Comments about Salomon Answer Snowboard 2009:

I demoed this board in spring conditions at Mt. Snow, VT.

It's very decent on the mountain. Medium flex, smooth sidecut, and good pop for carving. At the park, the stiffness helps with off center landings off jumps. It is flexible enough to bend but compared to dedicated park/street boards it's a little bit harder to lean into nose/tailslides.

It is slightly heavier than my old board, but I didn't really notice it on the mountain.

Comments about Salomon Answer Snowboard 2009:

I use this board for park and powder terrains. It's core being wood, it goes over ice and choppy ground a little rough but not so bad that it makes the ride unpleasant.
