Available Sizes

Size Best suited for
156cm Average height, versatile all-rounder
159cm Average height, versatile all-rounder
162cm Taller riders, more stability and float

Choose a smaller size for a more playful, manoeuvrable feel in tight terrain. Go larger for more float in deep snow and higher-speed stability on longer descents.

Ride Feel

The directional outline combined with a full camber produces predictable, confidence-inspiring turn initiation across a wide range of backcountry conditions. At flex 8, this board delivers precise, powerful edge hold on firm snow and rewards aggressive riding technique. The construction keeps the board responsive underfoot without adding unnecessary swing weight for the way up.

Verdict: Salomon HIGHPATH SPLIT

The Salomon Highpath Split 156cm is Salomon’s premium all-mountain split — flex 8, directional, and built for riders 60–78 kg who want stiff performance on demanding backcountry terrain without specialising in freeride. Salomon’s construction quality is consistent; the Highpath sits at the capable end of the all-mountain segment.
