Ridden by backcountry freestyle legends Manuel Diaz and Geoff Brown, this board is the culmination of some highly radical brainstorming sessions, built to bring your wildest dreams to reality.
Made with backcountry freestyle centre of mind, The Brainstorm is a directional twin shape that slays the whole mountain. Slash have set the Brainstorm back and raised the nose with Camrock to aid manoeuvrability in deeper snow and it inspires hard charging thanks to the carbon fibre, Kevlar and basalt stringers, which snap the board to action, providing lightning-quick responses when carving and slashing.
FEATURES:
- Landing strip: Strips of kevlar and carbon fiber placed from the inserts to the tips in the nose and tail to support landings and reduce washouts. This design also helps dampen high-speed chatter, offer stability at speed and load up potent ollies.
- Tri-ax fiberglass: Three-way weave of premium fibers with strands running at 45-degree angles. It provides superior pop, consistent torsional flex, and more overall response.
- Forever woodcore: Constructed from four different lightweight wood species—paulownia, spruce, beech and poplar—for a premium core that offers a highly tuned and dynamic feel. It’s flyweight, durable, filled with pop and highly reactive.
- Sintered base 600: Fast, durable and requires less waxing.
- Belt finish: The belt finish gets your base optimized before it’s fully waxed.
- Progressive sidecut: A progressive sidecut design blends many radii and smooth contact points for buttery smooth turn initiation, edge-to-edge transition and edge hold.
- Impact dampening: A vibration dampening rubber used between the steel edge and the sidewall. Absorbs impacts only to a degree.
- Steel edges: 35% more steel content than the average. They are simply stronger and more durable than the alternative.
