Slash Happy Place 2024

Happy Place snowboard is designed to make snowboarding more accessible to masses. Now manufactured in Europe using only BIAX fibreglass to make it torsion-ally softer production has started at a 135cm ride going all the way up to a 163W.

As kids grow up they need bigger boards and Slash saw it as a good excuse to open up their cam-rockered park board to the younger punks and smaller women. This hybrid shape has all the pop you can ask for with camber between the feet and the carbon stringers are positioned to give you that amazing pop of camber while retaining the forgiveness of rockered tips. The progressive sidecut allows for swift slashes and gives this board a real flow of movement.

CAMROCK PROFILE, IDENTITY SHAPE: CamRock features a loaded camber section between the feet with a small flat section underfoot and rockered tips. The camber section maintains stability between the feet, while the flat areas underfoot let you load up ollies and the rockered tips offer forgiveness. This creates a very playful, easy turning board. The Original Identity shape saves material and weight and also stands up without tipping over like other rounded boards.

CARBONBON REINFORCEMENT, PROGRESSIVE SIDECUT: Two carbon fiber stringers stretching outward from the inserts to the contact points in both the tip and the tail. Like prongs sticking outward these additives feel out rough terrain, promote pop, generate stronger edge hold and create a more playful ride. The progressive sidecut design blends many radii and smooth contact points for buttery smooth turn initiation, edge-to-edge transition and edge hold.

BI-AX FIBERGLASS, POP WOODCORE: Biax fiberglass is a two-way weave of fiberglass with strands running every 90-degrees. It’s more forgiving, easier to flex and highly versatile for all terrain types. Pop Woodcore is arranged with premium strips of poplar for a lightweight and smooth flex with added beech hardwood stringers tip to tail through the inserts for power transfer and durability.

SINTERED BASE 7500, STEEL EDGES, BELT FINISH, FACTORY WAXING: The Sintered quality base is fast, durable and requires less waxing. Edges are built with 35% more steel content than the average. They are simply stronger and more durable than the alternative. The belt finish gets your base optimized before it’s fully waxed. All Slash boards are factory waxed with OneBallJay wax and ready to shred straight out of the wrapper.

IMPACT DAMPENING, TIP PROTECTORS: A vibration dampening rubber used between the steel edge and the sidewal, absorbs impacts only to a very small degree, its main purpose is to act as an adhesion layer between the edge and sidewall to prevent the possibility of delamination. Thin, light and surprisingly strong aluminum protectors that cap the base and edge at the tip and tail to protect the board from impacts.
