The Salomon Oh Yeah is a fantastic choice for emerging freestyle riders who are looking to maximize their time in the park and pipe. With a softer flex that's ideal for playing, jumping, jibbing, and grinding, the Salomon Oh Yeah is able to run through the terrain park with ease, in addition to taking advantage of natural freestyle features in an all-mountain and freeride format as well. Riders looking for the more flexible boards on the spectrum will love the compliance of the Oh Yeah, allowing for creativity and playfulness all over the place.

Built with Salomon's Popster core consisting of milled wood inside the insert packs, the Oh Yeah is able to flex naturally in the center portions while keeping the tips and tails energetic and snappy. With aspen strips placed strategically in the board, riders are getting a smooth and quiet experience out there on the trails, highlighting the versatility and well-roundedness of this more freestyle-oriented board. In addition, Salomon does a great job adding their soft Royal Rubber blocks incorporated into the sidewalls. This material makes for a damp ride with little to no vibrations in those more sensitive zones. The construction pairs quite well with the overall personality and nature of the board, making it line up well with the camber/rocker profile and true twin shape.

Whether you're riding switch or not, the symmetrical shape of the board allows for seamless transitions from toe to heel. It's a very smooth and stable ride that makes it easy to be creative and playful both in the park and on the trails. The Oh Yeah is flat between the bindings for a more cambered feel, while the tips and tails are rockered to promote smoothness and flexibility for when the ground work becomes part of the equation. When you find yourself in powder, that rocker comes in handy as well--making it smooth, silent, and stable for your soft-snow experiences.


Aspiring and accomplished park riders will both find a lot to like about the Salomon Oh Yeah and its ability to absolutely crush the park. Thanks to the shape, profile, flex, and construction, the Oh Yeah has a whole lot going for it in the world of freestyle riding.
