Slingshot Salmon 2023 Wakeboard
IN A NUTSHELL...
The Salmon is a special signature edition of our Nomad board, designed exclusively for wake-park ripper Victor Salmon. Victor fell in love with the Nomad's outline, length and rocker profile, but couldn't help but wonder what it would feel like with an entirely flat base—so we built it for him.

SIZES: 155cm
The Salmon is a special signature edition of our 155 Nomad board, designed exclusively for wake-park ripper Victor Salmon. Victor rode the Nomad for several seasons prior and absolutely fell in love with the outline, length and rocker profile, but couldn't help but wonder what it would feel like with an entirely flat base—so we built it for him and put a salmon on it for good luck. It was one of most popular models for core cable riders in 2021, and with a design like this, we expect the trend to continue throughout the 2022 season.
WHY WE MADE IT
We made the Salmon 155 because Victor told us to, and we couldn't help but agree that "Salmon" was a pretty amazing name for a board that spends most of its life in the water.
WHY YOU'LL LOVE IT
* The Salmon is not only the greatest wakeboard name and graphic design in our line, but it's also based off of the ever popular Nomad board model.
* Its simplicity is perfect for park riders and its length gives wakeboarding a whole new look and feel.
Tech specs
ATOMIC WOOD CORE
Vertically laminated wood core construction is what gives Slingshot boards their signature flex performance. It's lightweight and durable, delivering superior pop, rebound, and that overall magical feeling in the park.
CARBON BEDROCK INSERTS
Light, flexible and super strong, our Carbon Bedrock Inserts reduce overall board weight, increases pull strength and allows for a more consistent flex under foot.
SINGLE-SHOT FUSION SIDEWALLS
Our innovative manufacturing process produces unrivaled dampening and durability by infusing the rail into the core of the board with a single shot, eliminating the need for fasteners or staples.
BALLISTIC BASE
With .7mm's of bulletproof protection between your board and the surfaces you're sliding across, this base layer is ready for battle. Put to the test daily by some of the most daring park riders in the game.
CONTINUOUS ROCKER PROFILE
This continuous curve equates to faster board speed on the water, allowing you to ride for longer periods of time with less arm fatigue and delivering an exciting, fast and fun feel.
