Construction and Materials

Hidden inside the sleepwalker you’ll find a Popster core chock full of FSC certified aspen. The clever popster core thickens the wood in the area under the bindings to add a firmer, responsive feel underfoot. While thinner sections in the centre, tip & tail showcase the natural snap that wood provides to create a fun pop that’s pretty similar to your skateboard’s.Ideal for learning how to get yourself airborne.

Long lasting and tough as a boot this board is certified child friendly (not an official cert, sorry) as the extruded base will prove hard wearing on boxes or rails and should your jib hungry grom manage to take a bite out of it, then it should be easily repairable at your local shop.

Similarly, the Biaxial, low density fibreglass is employed in the boards inner workings to ensure the board retains it’s consistent, playful flex forever.

“This all adds up to a super consistent board response regardless of whether you’re riding regular or switch into or out of features”

Roundup

This is almost a no brainer for any youth that wants to develop their freestyle snowboarding. The sleepwalker grom is shaped to be reliable and responsive when you need it, but forgiving so that you can approach new tricks with excitement rather than white knuckled terror.

For parents that also means it might also be a slightly more rewarding option than other snowboards if your child is looking to start learning tricks as that forgiveness should encourage landings on their first tries rather than a punishing fall. It’s always easier to perfect something you’re already landing so this might help to raise your kids stoke and encourage progression rather than giving up after their first fall.

It’s also worth checking out the Oh Yeah Grom if you’re not a fan of the graphic on the Sleepwalker Grom It’s got all the same tech and shape but with a touch of purple power on the topsheet instead!
