The 2023 Salomon Abstract is the newest board in the Salomon range and was designed to be one of the most versatile boards on the market. A combination of the award winning Gypsy and Villain, this unisex board boasts the perfect mid flexing profile with Salomon's most popular Rock Out Camber for stability and power underfoot. Even though it is primarily designed as a park / freestyle board, the Quadralizer sidecut lets this board grip on groomers so you can lay some serious turns down and precise carves outside the park. Remove all limitations on style and expression with the Abstract and enjoy versatility in the park, the streets, or anywhere you may ride.
Rider Level: Intermediate - Advanced

Camber Type: Rock Out Camber
Traditional Camber throughout the board with a big flat spot between the bindings for added stability, response, and edge hold without feeling aggressive, plus rocker outside the feet to maximise pressability.

Shape: True Twin
True Twin boards are constructed exactly the same from tip to tail for identical performance in both switch and regular.
Quadralizer Sidecut - The Quadralizer sidecut takes Salomons signature straight line Equalizer sidecut and makes it quadratic, which enhances edge grip, agility, and allows you to perform both big arcing carves and tight aggressive turns.
Core: Aspen Select
A full Aspen, FSC certified wood core with every piece being hand selected for unrivalled quality.
Triax/BA MD Glass - Triaxial Fibreglass that increases durability and stability, plus Medium Density fibreglass that guarantees consistent quality and light, lively performance.
Popster Booster - Pop meets performance. Popster shapes the woodcore profile with strategically placed variations of thickness, providing skate-influenced snap and pop. Booster adds carbon stringers which spread underfoot energy more effectively to the tip and tail for maximum ollie power.
Base: Sintered
High speed and good wax retention, so you can go faster for longer.
Mounting Pattern: 2x4 Inserts
Additional Features:
Slingshot Sidewalls - Carbon inlays that load energy and enhance response underfoot.
Freestyle Edge Bevel - Pre-tuned edges for freestyle riding, so you can hit rails straight away without worrying about catching edges.
Castor Bean Topsheet - A sustainable option to discontinue petroleum-based topsheet products by using bio-sourced Castor Bean. Durable and eco-friendly!
Royal Rubber Rails - Full length rubber sidewalls provide the highest level of dampening and protection.
