The following is a quick overview of the 2024 Slash snowboards lineup.
First I will take a look at any new boards for the 2023-24 season, and any 2022-23 boards that aren't returning with a 2024 model.
Then I'll place each board into the categories where I see them fitting best and finally take a look at any changes for returning boards.

All 2024 Slash Snowboards by Category
Below, I have categorized Slash's 2023-24 lineup. This is according to the categories here at SnowboardingProfiles.com and not necessarily the same as how Slash might label them.
Of course these are only broad categories as every board is different, but this is a rough guide.
-Slash BEGINNER SNOWBOARDS-
Men's/Unisex
- Happy Place
-Slash PARK/FREESTYLE SNOWBOARDS-
Men's
- Spectrum
Unisex
- Happy Place – See Full Review | Top 10 Freestyle Board
-Slash ALL-MOUNTAIN-FREESTYLE SNOWBOARDS-
There isn't a Slash board that strictly fits this category, IMO, though the Brainstorm, or even the Happy Place could be used for this style of riding for sure.
-Slash AGGRESSIVE ALL-MTN-FREESTYLE SNOWBOARDS-
There isn't a Slash board that strictly fits this category, IMO, though the ATV could be used for this style of riding.

Summary
So there you have the 2024 Slash snowboards.
Out with the Old and In with the New
Nothing to report here. All of Slash's '23 models are returning and there are no new models coming in.
Changes to Existing Models
There doesn't appear to be many changes to returning models. The only things I could see were:
Spectrum: Flex rating on the '23 model was 6/10, it's now being rated as a 5/10 for the '24 model. Has it actually gotten softer, or have they just adjusted their rating for it? The board looks to be identical, bar the graphic, so I'd say it's probably just a rating adjustment.
ATV: '23 model has "3/10" for its camber height and says "6/10" for the '24 model's camber height. Otherwise the same
Beauty is in the eye of the beholder of course, but really liking Slash boards graphically this year. So while they haven't done much with their boards this year, they have graphically given them a fresh look that stands out.
