Construction and Materials

The Sleepwalker features Salomons Popster core profile which utilises different thicknesses of wood to create pop without requiring tonnes of additional materials. Made to take a beating the core is built using high density Aspen wood in the rails and inserts, this is coupled with some Biaxial Fibreglass to ensure the board is light, strong, and consistent in its flex and feel from day 1.

The sidewalls are reinforced with rubber pads in the high pressure zones which help to dampen things down, reduce chatter and make the board feel a little softer than it actually is.

The Extruded EG base is perfect for park riders, tough as a boot and easier to repair than sintered alternatives should you find yourself grinding a big fat groove down the middle by mistake.
