Slash ATV 2019 Snowboard Rider Review
The ATV is an intermediate to advanced level snowboard built for all-terrain riders and is the original prototype that Gigi Rüf used to launch Slash. The powerful camber profile and directional twin shape is built for maximum pop and precise edge control. A strategic blend of Basalt and Kevlar under foot dramatically boost response and energy return when loading up for jumps or charging through choppy snow conditions. If you're in the market for a high-quality camber board with a stiffer flex rating that can handle any run on the mountain, the ATV is an all-terrain-vehicle.

The Brainstorm is an all-terrain beast that is built for advanced level freeride and freestyle riders. The Directional Twin shape, Backseat CamRock, and medium flex provide effortless float in powder while still maintaining the response and power you need for maximum edge control. Buried Treasure Stringers combine Kevlar and Basalt fibers for a lightweight and extremely responsive ride, while Ultimate Traction Bumps increased edge hold, even in icy conditions. The aggressive design and playful demeanor of this board really make it the best of both worlds and a great option for riders who like to turn the entire mountain into a personal playground.
