Salomon Salvatore Sanchez Snowboard Review

salvatore-sanchez-black_2
$429
Intermediate to Expert Street Park Jib

Flat/Rocker almost Continuous Rocker Twin Shape
The Salvatore Sanchez is a Sanchez with a rather decent continuous park rocker.  The rocker makes the board much more catch free but at the same time reduces the ollie power you had with camber. It's not lifeless by any means but we have just experienced more from other boards.  These days most people prefer the jibability over the pop you get from camber.  All in all it's a fun way to mix up your street experience.  Despite the extruded base it still has some high end tech.  The rubber rails adds a more forgiving flex and a little better dampness to the ride than before but we wish Salomon would do more with the sidecut.  Even a jib board needs a little edg e hold now and then.  It's very loose and playful due to the minimal flatness between the feet and it makes the Salvator a jib everywhere board.  The Salvatore Sanchez is a decent choice for anyone looking for a high end jib to street snowboard.  The basic ride of the Salvatore Sanchez hasn't changed much from 2011 to 2012.

The Good Ride Take


A quick look at the 2012 Salomon Salvatore Sanchez

  

The Good Ride Take on Salomon

Boards
Salomon is small compared to some companies but they have the complete line up and a very strong following.  You will either love or hate a Salomon board.  Salomon makes a very fast and damp all mountain to freeride board that seems to feel best at high speeds.  It is really scary how fast it is.  They have also made a solid effort to make some pretty good park boards as well and won some Good Wood Award's in the park and pipe.  If you are looking for something a bit off the beaten path Salomon might work for you. 
Boots
It is almost undisputed amongst most knowledgeable riders that Salomon has some of the best boots out there.  They have spent a lot of time making a boot that fits well and that won’t pack out much.  Even though there is a semi-traditional lacing system it still has a speed lace tightening system and it can lock at each rung on the upper part of the boot.  Some complain that the Salomon boot runs a bit narrow so if you have wide feet think twice.  Also others complain that it can take longer than some boots to make them comfortable for your feet. 
Bindings
Salomon’s bindings are not as popular as their boards and boots but still do a good job competing with the other big name brands. They are reliable and well made and have a more traditional old school feel compared to the leading companies.  That being said the turn initiation and general feeling is good so these could work for you.
