Rider Style: Experienced All Terrain
Intermediate to expert riders looking for a high-performance all-terrain board that can ride everything and anything.
Shape Overview: Directional Twin
The Rumble Fish utilises an advanced twin shape engineered to deliver a genuinely versatile ride. Its unique nose profile features extended zones at the contact points, which force snow down, creating lift in the front of the board for effortless float in the pow. However, thanks to its relatively low swing weight, it gives the board enhanced control and feel. Now to ensure that the Rumble Fish delivers a versatile ride without compromising any of its unique freestyle feel, it features the advanced EQ Rad sidecut. This innovative profile combines equaliser and radial lines to create the perfect balance of control and fun.
Profile: RockOut Camber
To ensure that the Rumble Fish delivers excellent performance across all types of riding and terrain, it utilises the versatile RockOut camber. This complex profile combines rocker zones at the contact points with a camber under the feet and a flat section between the bindings. This unique profile delivers a versatile ride, ensuring that no matter what or where you ride, you know that this board is never going to feel wanting.
Construction:
Internally the Rumble Fish's advanced construction is headed up with the responsive Ghost Green Core. This hand-selected wood core combines aspen and paulownia with bamboo rods at the tip and tail to deliver a powerful poppy flex through the length. This flex is then personalised to the board via Salomon's unique Popster milling process, allowing the designers to dial in the optimum flex for each board's specific riding requirements. Now to give the Rumble Fish its stunning all-around performance, Salomon utilises a combination of medium-density bi-ax glass structural layers and their unique ABC Wrapper construction. This mix of the bamboo top sheet and bamboo sidewalls with cork inserts increases control and performance while retaining the Rumble Fish's freestyle roots.
Base
Finally, and to ensure that the Rumble Fish lives up to its high-performance credentials, Salomon fits their Sintered EG base with a fine stone finish. This Galium-infused Electra base is both super-tough and super-fast, ensuring that this is one of the fastest boards on the mountain.
