the aurora from slash is at the forefront of snowboard development and equipped with the latest high-end technology. it is a stiff, directional twin board, built to enjoy snowboarding to the fullest in any terrain. the aurora is packed with the best material components and made for aggressive riders who appreciate ultimate response and control.
riding style a high-performance all-mountain/freeride board for experienced riders. this board has everything you need to shred all over the mountain with the highest performance. a top board for any terrain, from the piste to the backcountry.
shape the directional twin shape has the advantage that the nose gets a little longer due to the offset of the binding towards the tail (setback), giving you more lift in the powder. however, the shape of the nose and tail remain symmetrical, which means that even switch riding is no problem. the subtle traction bump in the centre of the sidecut provides better grip on hard snow.
profile the dual camber profile comes with a rocker between the bindings combined with a camber under the bindings. this combination offers a good edge hold thanks to the camber areas, as well as good lift and unlimited freestyle action without canting thanks to the rocker.
flex the stiff flex provides you with absolute running smoothness and stability at high speeds, giving you a precise ride feel and a lot of pop.
construction the lightweight woodcore is made from lightweight paulownia and bamboo for superior strength and minimal weight. the core is then reinforced with ash along the inserts. this is the lightest and most complex core of slash. the sintered hd base is the fastest and hardest sintered base on the market. it offers the most stable surface currently available and the high-density molecular structure keeps wax longer. knock out is a special construction method for milling out the core. with a cnc machine, material is cut precisely between the bindings. this makes the core lighter and the side wall thinner. this enhances the flex behaviour, which gives the board a finer feel and better edge control.
