$949.99 tax incl.
New product
For a powder board with a little more versatility, you can't go wrong with the Salomon HPS - Takaharu Nakai Snowboard. The tapered directional shape is more all-purpose than a swallowtail but still has tons of float thanks to the wide waist and rockered nose.

For a powder board with a little more versatility, you can't go wrong with the Salomon HPS - Takaharu Nakai Snowboard. The tapered directional shape is more all-purpose than a swallowtail but still has tons of float thanks to the wide waist and rockered nose. Powder Camber gives your back foot precise control when you're leaning back in deep pow and the Quadratic Sidecut makes for easy edge-to-edge transitions despite the width. Salomon's Hillside Project has some crazy good boards and Takaharu Nakai's design earns it place in that esteemed lineup.
Product Details
Rocker Type
Powder Camber – Camber between feet for carving and precision, and huge rocker in the nose for flotation in very deep powder.
Flex
Flex Rating – 3 (1 Soft - 5 Stiff)
Shape
Tapered Directional – Tail width is slightly tapered (2-20mm). This loosens up turning initiation and improves floatation in deeper snow without sacrificing edge hold on hardpack.
Radial Sidecut – Radial is the classic sidecut for consistent response forward and switch.
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 paulownia wood.
Popster – Popster's shaped core profile thins out under foot and thickens outside your bindings before tapering again at tip and tail to maximize the natural snap and pop of wood. Feels like your skateboard kicktail finally connected with your snowboard.
FSC® Certified Wood Core
Laminates
Ghost Carbon Stringers – Carbon stringers sewn into a triaxial layer of fiberglass for reactive pop and damp stability.
ABC Wrapper – ABC Wrapper is a patented process using structural bamboo veneers to reduce fiberglass and resin content in each board by 40%.
Biaxial Medium Density Fiberglass – Medium density European-made fiberglass layers guarantee a consistent quality level, for light and lively boards.
Sidewalls
Bamboo / Cork Rails – The liveliness of eco-friendly bamboo, mixed with cork composite for the best direct feel and dampening ride in the industry.
Base
Sintered EG – Engineered for a super fast glide in everything from fresh pow to sticky spring snow. Sintered material provides superior wax retention, Gallium strengthens impact resistance, and the Electra finish gives a turbocharged glide
Fine Stone Finish – Fine stone finish helps speed up in powder or softer snow conditions.
Edges
All-Mountain Edge Bevels – A 1° edge holding tune throughout the key parts of the sidecut meets a 2° bevel between the feet. This delivers the most solid edge hold with no hang-ups.
