Just kidding, it showed up. Hand flex feels great and way more my style than the planky Horizon.

Side note: I also grabbed the new Holograms. Love the previous version of these but always hated the basketball toe strap. This new toe strap is legit and having the same brand for boots gives a perfect fit. Guess I'm a full on Salomon ad now for my non-Step On setup this season.

That board is a beauty! Sensible inserts and ref stance too.

Stoked! It's pretty much the perfect specs for me and what I want out of it. Our season starts November 29th here and I can't wait to take it out. Salomon has been putting out awesome shapes.

last question: I know that currently you don't have the Super 8 anymore. But flexwise, if you remember, the SickStick is softer, stiffer, comparable...?

Salomon rate them about the same, flex wise.
But also the Highpath is rated the same, but many consider it a soft board... so...

thanks!

Hard to remember, but the Sickstick seems slightly softer between the feet and maybe the nose.

Love it. Will probably snag one of these and have a solid two board HPS quiver.

I’m trying to be patient for the Louif redesign 25/26. I want that and whatever shape Luke Lund has been riding.
