Salomon HPS Takaharu Nakai Men's Snowboard 2025

For a powder board with a little more versatility, you can't go wrong with the Salomon HPS - Takaharu Nakai Snowboard. The tapered directional shape is more all-purpose than a swallowtail but still has tons of float thanks to the wide waist and rockered nose. Powder Camber gives your back foot precise control when you're leaning back in deep pow and the Quadratic Sidecut makes for easy edge-to-edge transitions despite the width. Salomon's Hillside Project has some crazy good boards and Takaharu Nakai's design earns it place in that esteemed lineup.
