DETAILED DESCRIPTION
Pop and Power for Freestyle
The Jaime SLS 2026 is built to deliver massive pop every time you load the edge. Its Biax Carbon and SLS construction creates a lively, responsive ride, letting you feel the power build underfoot for explosive take-offs. This makes rotations and high jumps easier, perfect for progressing your big air game or dialing in your bag of tricks.
Grip and Control at High Speed
The Angled Fins provide superior grip for surgically precise carves. Paired with the double rockerline, they give you the confidence to lay into tight turns and maintain solid edge control, even when you're absolutely charging.
Softer, Forgiving Landings
The Double Diffusor Bottom absorbs impact on landing, making them incredibly forgiving. During a big session, you'll feel less fatigue and strain on your knees, letting you ride harder for longer and stomp your tricks with confidence.
Lightweight Build, Responsive Ride
The SLS name, backed by materials like Biax Carbon and Innegra, delivers a performance-tuned weight-to-stiffness ratio. The board's stiff flex provides instant energy return for explosive jumps and pinpoint precision when carving.
Smart Design, Rider-Focused Features
The board includes integrated grab rails for easy board-offs, while shape features like the double rockerline and step double concave maximize grip and stability. It all adds up to a board designed to help you push your riding to the next level.
Is The Jaime SLS For You?
We recommend the Jaime SLS 2026 for ambitious, experienced riders focused on freestyle and big air. If you want a responsive board that's stable on landings and drives efficiently upwind, this is your weapon of choice.
