The 2023 Salomon Highpath is the newest board in the Salomon line that was built to be the pinnacle in both all mountain performance and sustainable construction. Constructed with eco-friendly materials like a bio-based topsheet and resin, a FSC certified core and 50% recycled base material and edges, the Highpath offers high performance while still being sustainable. The Rock Out Camber and stiff flex contribute to one of the most stable rides you can get, and the Popster core is responsive and super responsive at high speeds. The tapered directional shape will get you powering out of your carves and gives a more natural float in powder, providing you with some of the most advanced all mountain performance in any snowboard on the market.
