About the Salomon Sick Stick
Part of the Hillside Collection, the Salomon Sick Stick is the board that defined freestyle riding in the backcountry. Loaded with all the latest tech and designed by Wolfgang Nyvelt, the Sick Stick is an absolute classic!
Fitted with Salomon's Rock Out camber, this board gives you a flat section between your bindings for solid stability, with a camber near the feet for response and a rocker on the tip/tail for maximum float when combined with the tapered shape. This trio of profiles works together to give you a consistent and predictable ride in a variety of conditions and terrains.
Built using the Ghost Green Core, Salomon use carefully selected materials to optimize pop & performance whilst reducing weight. This combined with super light & sustainable Paulownia wood, plus a Biaxial medium-density fiberglass layup ensures a consistent board feels and performance through the life of the board.
Salomon's Quadralizer sidecut makes the Sick Stick easy to initiate turns and makes changing direction effortless during the transition between edges and the lightning-fast sintered base will give you a silky-smooth glide on fresh powder and top speed on the groomers.
The Sick Stick features Bamboo + Cork rails, the combination of cork and bamboo adds liveliness to the board while creating a dampening effect for an awesome direct feel and Salomon's Popster tech shapes the core to maximize the natural snap of the wood. To do this the wood core is thicker at the center of the board then tapers out to thinner sections then thickens again towards the nose and tail, this creates an insane amount of powerful pop!
All of these features work together to make the Sick Stick a nimble, lively off-piste pow board. The combination of explosive pop with the forgiving & stable profile will have you smiling after every turn!
