2026 Salomon Highpath Snowboard

The 2026 Salomon Highpath is a high-performance, eco-minded freeride board with serious all-terrain capabilities. Designed to transition seamlessly between groomers and variable off-piste terrain, the Highpath blends stability, pop, and precision with a construction that pushes sustainability forward without compromising ride quality.

Why we like it:

It’s rare to find a board that feels this dialed across such a broad range of conditions, stable at speed, responsive edge-to-edge, and surfy when you want it to be, all while keeping its materials and environmental impact in check.

Who it's for:

Advanced riders looking for a directional all-mountain board that handles everything from steep lines and chopped-up powder to carving hardpack. Ideal for those who appreciate both on trail and soft snow performance.

Highlights:

The tapered directional shape and Backseat Camber profile deliver a predictable, surfy ride with solid drive and control in the tail. Salomon’s C/FX Basalt and Popster core reinforce the board’s powerful personality, especially at speed. Edge-to-edge transitions feel fluid and intuitive, while the stiffer flex keeps things composed in uneven terrain or when opening it up.

Things to consider:

This isn’t a soft-flexing cruiser for mellow laps or beginners. It thrives under a confident rider who knows how to work the board’s energy and edge control to their advantage.

Fit & sizing considerations:

Rides true to size with plenty of support underfoot. Riders looking for added maneuverability in trees or tighter terrain could consider sizing down slightly without sacrificing control or float.
