2008 Salomon Tempest Snowboard

 

 

With a little extra width the Tempest gives the size 10 and up boarder the soothing relief of a nimble ride.  Unlike other sluggish boards in its class, the Tempest handles well in tight spots and feels lively out of turns.  The rubber dampening layers in the sidewall, positioned under the feet, reduce chatter for a smooth ride all day long.

Technology:

Core:  Aspen Wood Light
An enhanced version, lighter and more responsive, this core brings together all of Salomon's technologies to give you more power, control and snap when you ride.

Base Factory Finish:  Stone
Optimized extruded base structure for any snow condition

Walls:  SWS
Developed by Salomon to give more confidence on packed snow by absorbing impact, patented shock absorbing rubber inserts are placed under your bindings to provide more comfort and unique sensations on snow.

Fibers:  Bi Axial Medium Density
Medium density European-made fiberglass layers guarantee a constant quality level while making the boards light and lively.

Sidecut:  Radial
Radial sidecuts are perfect for modern park and pipe riding, since the only thing that changes while riding switch, is your body position, not your board feeling.

Edge:  Critical Edge Bevel
Enjoy the shred out of the box; we are de-sharpening the edges in critical zones (wide points, tips) for a more forgiving ride.

Base Quality:  P-Tex 1900 Electra
The perfect blend of durability and performance with a medium structure for max glide in all types of snow.
