Salomon Snowboards Huck Knife Snowboard 2023

Perfectly blending class-leading freestyle performance with a surprisingly versatile ride, the Huck Knife has firmly cemented its place as the go-to board for discerning freestyle riders. Built for jumps, transitions and rails, this stunning freestyle board delivers the ultimate feel, balance and control. However, the Huck Knife is more than just a freestyle board, thanks to its combination of state-of-the-art shape, advanced profile and class-leading construction; Salomon has created a unique board that not only kills it in the park but a board that rips over the rest of the mountain as well. Built around a fully balanced blunt-tipped twin shape that cuts swing weight to a minimum, the Huck Knife delivers all the feel and control that even the most demanding freestyle rider could ever need. When it comes to the Huck Knife’s profile and construction, it becomes clear why it also delivers such exceptional performance away from the park. The responsive Quad Camber working in harmony with the advanced construction gives a powerful and confidence-inspiring ride on the piste. The rocker at the tip and tail not only creates a hook-free ride but also gives the board improved float in deep snow, underpinning the Huck Knife’s versatility.

Rider Style

The Huck Knife is aimed at freestyle riders of all ability levels looking for a fun and playful board that transcends regular freestyle board limitations.

Shape Overview

As the Huck Knife is all about delivering its fun, balanced ride, Salomon utilises a low profile, blunt tip and tail twin shape. This innovative shape is built to cut swing weight to an absolute minimum, ensuring that the rider has all the control they could ever need while allowing the board to be versatile enough to handle the whole mountain. To help the Huck Knife to deliver its all-terrain ride without compromising its freestyle feel, Salomon utilises their state-of-the-art EQ Rad sidecut. This innovative profile combines equaliser and radial lines to create the perfect balance of control and fun.

Profile

To ensure that the Huck Knife delivers the perfect combination of pop and control, it utilises Salomon’s innovative Quad Camber profile. This advanced profile blends the responsive nature of camber with the more playful characteristics of rocker in the tip and tail, delivering a board that is almost unsinkable in the pow, stable at high speed and playful in the park

Construction

Internally the Huck Knife’s construction is headed up by the advanced Popster Aspen SLCT Core. Profiled with Salomon’s innovative Popster milling, its combination of thick and thin zones through the length deliver the perfect balance of freestyle skate-inspired flex and all-terrain response. To elevate the Huck Knife from a soft freestyle board into a more performance-orientated board, Salomon utilises their innovative BA MD glass structural layers. This mid-density bi-ax glass reinforced with pre-cured tri-ax inserts creates a playful torsional flex but still gives the board a poppy and responsive feel when you get out into the mountain. To finish the Huck Knifes performance build, Salomon integrates it with their Slingshot sidewall technology. This advanced technology places carbon inlays into the sidewall that help load and release energy, providing enhanced reactivity under the feet.

Base

To finish off the Huck Knifes versatile construction, Salomon utilises their tough and fast sintered base.
