THE HPS-GOOP
Hillside Project - Goop's Pro Model
The all new Salomon HPS Goop Snowboard is Goop's pro model—and it’s built to devour big lines with style, speed, and soul. With a spontaneous, ‘ready-for-anything’ approach, Goop flows like spring water riding down the mountain, gracefully attacking side hits, wind lips, groomers, and anything that comes across his path with creativity and style. He is one with the mountain, and he is one with his board.
Details
Rocker Type: Rock Out Camber – Flat between your bindings for stability, camber near the feet for response and a rocker on the tip/tail for pressability.
Flex: Medium/Stiff, 7 (1 Soft - 10 Stiff)
Shape: Tapered Directional, Quadratic Sidecut – A blend of elliptic curves for easy turn initiation, effortless direction changes and fluid edge-to-edge transitions
Quadrilizer Sidecut – Explosive combination of Equalizer and Quadratic allows high speed carving as well as superior edge control in tight spots.
Core: Ghost Green Core – Ghost Green Core components have been selected and designed to optimize pop and reduce weight while utilizing sustainable attributes of a super light wood
FSC Certified Woodcore
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.
Laminates: BA MD Fiberglass – Medium density European Made fiberglass layers guarantee a consistent quality level, for light and lively boards.
Sidewalls: Recycled ABS Sidewalls – The molecular structure of ABS can be described as a concrete bar with rubber nuggets inside, combining toughness for energy transfer and dampening properties for impact absorption.
Base: 50% Recycled Sintered Base, Fine Stone Finish, Natural Wax
Topsheet: ABC Wrapper – More dampening, less plastic. ABC Wrapper is a process using wood veneers to reduce fiberglass in each board.
