					<description><![CDATA[Location: Mission Ridge, WA Snow Conditions: Hardpacked to softpacked groomers. Setup: I rode the Salomon Powder Snake with Salomon Halogram bindings and Vans Ferra boots size 8. Size: 156 cm First Impression: I was hesitant about how this would handle on groomers but the Powder Snake could ride the groomers with ease and a bit of playfulness. Weight: Average. Flex:  The Powder Snake has a softer tapered nose and tail which helps give it the playful feeling on the mountain. In between the bindings it&#8217;s a bit stiffer so you feel more stable on freeriding and holding an edge. Overall it&#8217;s a 5 on the flex scale, it&#8217;s pretty much middle of the road for flex. There&#8217;s softer attributes to it but there&#8217;s a stiffer response you get. Torsionally it&#8217;s stiffer so it&#8217;s not super quick edge to edge but more relaxed and playful. The Powder Snake features pow rocker which is a flat profile between the bindings for stability with more rocker on the tip and tail for playfulness. Turning:  Despite the stiffer mid flex it didn&#8217;t require much effort to get into turns, it just wasn&#8217;t as quick responsively as other boards. The Quadratic sidecut definitely gives the [&#8230;]]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Location: Mammoth, CA Snow Conditions: Mixture of hardpacked groomers to icy death. Setup: I rode the Salomon Answer with my Union bastardized bindings and Vans Veil Boots size 8. Size: 156cm. First Impression: This board has some snap, crackle and pop to it giving you a lighter all mountain lively board. Weight: lighter than average. Flex: One of the first noticeable things about the answer was that the nose/tail was stiffer but between the binding was rather softer giving it much softer torsional flex.  Overall longitudinally it felt stiffer but still was easier to initiate turns with because of the softer torsional flex.  Overall it surprised me because it didn&#8217;t feel like the flex of 3 on the mountain. It was a light board with decent dampness but definitely you could feel between the bindings what kind of terrain you are on.  The Answer was changed to flat profile in last year&#8217;s model and kept the flat profile for the 2011 model. Turning: It was a very easy board to get turns initiated and onto edge from toeside to heelside down the mountain.  The softer torsional flex helped allow turns come easier and it felt really good on shorter radius turns.

					<description><![CDATA[Location: Winter Park, CO Snow Conditions: Hardpacked to icy conditions on the mountain, flat-light riding conditions. Setup: I rode the Salomon Pop Star with Salomon Celeste bindings and Vans Veil Boots size 8. Size: 153cm. First Impression: So far this is a good all around mountain ride and enjoying being back on camber. Weight: Lighter than average Flex: The first thing I noticed was the stiffer nose and tad softer tail and overall the flex isn&#8217;t insanely soft but not a stiff board.  It&#8217;s on the lower end for flex, you can play with it but also capable of holding turns and freeriding.  I was surprised at how it handled for freeriding, overall the flex on the board was consistent with the exception that I thought the nose was a tad stiffer than the tail . Turning: The pop star made turning a consistent ride, the edgehold was good for the conditions and each turn I had control over how the board played out in the carve.  If I wanted a deeper carve, I could lay it over and really ride it.  If I wanted a mellow more easy turns, the board handled that just fine.  I didn&#8217;t feel if [&#8230;]]]></description>
