Slash By Gigi

Based on the Volcom presses and manufactured by Nidecker, this is legendary rider Gigi Ruffs brand that stands out from the rest and delivers cutting edge performance in a unique and exciting style.

Slash snowboards are the brand new take on snowboarding from legendary rider Gigi Ruff. These board have been manufactured by Nidecker and are based on the Volcom presses that have been stirring up the industry the past few years.

Only the best will do for Gigi and that is reflected in the quality of these decks. Super high end constructions, unique shapes and incredible performance make Slash stand out from the crowd and cement them as one of the cutting edge design companies on the market today.

SLASH, this is my turn.

The SLASH has a natural presence in snowboarding. It is elementary to a skillful approach. It is to navigate with power and style.

From early on in my pro career I have always had an interest and fortunately an opportunity to design the boards I rode. From the artwork to the technologies and construction techniques, since the days of Burton/Seven/Un Inc., the very essence of my pro models has been about creating a medium that expresses my personality. This is has been very important to me.


More recently, having worked with Nidecker Mfg. the past two years on the Volcom board project I became comfortable with their commitment to advancing board technology. All that I have learned has only allowed more room for me to create – this is the platform of SLASH.

Now, I continue this path, building a platform dedicated to progression, individuality and standards. Through the Nidecker laboratory we will facilitate the highest demands of quality through a quiver of boards designed for a variety of conditions constructed at a new level of precision. Joining me on this venture is Jonnie Paxson who next to me will receive his own pro model and embody the SLASH as something uniquely his own.

Drop in, gain speed and SLASH.
