Sims Fakie vs Sims Salt
Snowboards comparison — 2026-2027 season
How they compare
Both target all mountain and powder terrain, while the Sims Fakie leans more freeride, while the Sims Salt leans more freestyle. The Sims Fakie uses a directional shape while the Sims Salt is twin. The Sims Fakie has a camber profile (arc underfoot for strong edge hold, pop, and stability on hardpack—lively and precise), while the Sims Salt uses hybrid (camber/rocker) (mix of camber and rocker zones for all-mountain versatility—grip, float, and play in one profile). At $400 vs $650 MSRP, the Sims Salt is the more budget-friendly option.
