Salomon created the Special Snowboard for those who ride every corner of the mountain. With the ERA 3-D core profile Salomon cut out some of the core under your bindings to lower weight and add pop for jibbing, and to maintain a snappy flex to hold the board down when you open up the throttle. This directional twin board's über-fast sintered 4000 base boosts backcountry gaps while the quadratic side cut gives you the quickness to dodge the trees. Burly sidewall construction provides extra durability on freestyle terrain.
Bottom Line: Ride it all.

excellent all around board if you are just getting into snowboarding. good board to figure what kind of riding you like. great in the fluffy stuff.

I have last years model and love it, tho I still want to upgrade my bindings (burton customs from about 8 years ago). Any ideas?

Burton Cartels, or The Ride Alpha and last but not least the K2 cinch- if you are looking for speed.

I have had Salomon boards since day 1 and I think they make the best boards out there. There are lots of great boards out there but Salomon produced a board full of technology and if you wait long enough(now) you can get them for virtually half price. Sure you can get a Burton and they make great boards too, but so much of that is the name you pay for. Get a Salomon great ride, durable board with the best base in the business.
Ride on.

looking for a 'do it all' board. liked the look of a salomon prospect but looking at this board as I can't seem to track down that model any more. is it a little flexy?

This is an all mountain board so you can ride slope or park with it. It claims to be pretty flexy.

The salomon special 156 is truly 2 boards in one. I can carve up the mountain or play in the park. It is soft and flexible when I'm in freestyle mode or I can cruise and carve with no loss of stability at speed and it holds an edge. With my Relay Pro bindings from Dogfunk, what a great combo for whatever type of riding you want to do!
Change me.
