The Salomon Pillow Talk Splitboard is everything you need out of your splitty. It's a super lightweight directional shape with a centered stance and rockered tail, giving it extra versatility and a hint of freestyle feel. The wider design gives you plenty of float for whispering sweet nothings to pillow lines and pow stashes, while the pulled in tail and sturdy flex pattern give you power and reliability for when things get heated. As an added bonus, every board comes with a set of custom cut Pomoca skins, so that's just one less thing to worry about while you're getting your backcountry setup dialed.
Rock Out Camber – Flat between your bindings for stability, camber near the feet for response, and rocker on the tip/tail for pressability.
Flex Rating: 4 (1 Soft - 5 Stiff)
Tapered Twin – Stance is centered within the effective edge while the tail is pulled in slightly to help with flotation.
Quadralizer Sidecut – Explosive combination of Equalizer and Quadratic sidecuts allows high speed carving as well as superior edge control in tight spots.
Ghost Green Core – Ghost Green Core components have been selected and designed to optimize pop and reduce weight while utilizing sustainable attributes of a super light paulownia wood.
Popster – Popster's shaped core profile thins out under foot and thickens outside your bindings before tapering again at tip and tail to maximize the natural snap and pop of wood. Feels like your skateboard kicktail finally connected with your snowboard.
Biaxial Medium Density Fiberglass – Medium density European-made fiberglass layers guarantee a consistent quality level, for light and lively boards.
ABS Sidewalls – The molecular structure of ABS can be described as a concrete bar with rubber nuggets inside, combining toughness for energy transfer and dampening properties for impact absorption.
Sintered Base – An industry standard for quality sintered base materials. Provides a moderate balance between the speed created by a hard surface and good wax retention.
Fine Stone Finish – Fine stone finish helps speed up in powder or softer snow conditions.
All-Mountain Edge Bevel – A 1° edge holding tune throughout the key parts of the sidecut meets a 2° bevel between the feet. This delivers the most solid edge hold with no hang-ups.
Includes Custom Cut Pomoca Skins – Custom skins are included for ease of mind use on the mountains and touring efficiency. They come in a specific bag that lets you fold the skin back in just couple of seconds so you don’t have to struggle, even when conditions are less than perfect.
PLUM Hooks – PLUM hooks are specifically made for high performance splitboarding. Their asymetric profile guaranty a perfect link between all the parts. They are light, easy to use.

The Spark R&D Surge Splitboard Bindings take care of business so you can concentrate on the things that matter: like pinning your line and pillaging all that fresh snow. They feature Spark's proven Tesla T1 platform, an integrated Whammy Bar with multiple climbing positions, and lightweight, supportive Pillow Line straps. These things are a marvel of modern engineering and practical simplicity, just snap the toe ramp down and you're connected. When you point em downhill, the solid aluminum baseplates and stiffer Flip'N'Rip highbacks deliver an engaged, responsive ride that ensures you always feel ready to charge. Spark R&D has paved the way, the rest is up to you.
Tesla T1 System – Tesla T1 bindings slide sideways into the offset touring brackets and are locked into place with the snap ramp. No pins, no cables, no fiddle factor.
Whammy Bar Climbing Wire – A single fatty climbing wire is built into the baseplate with a side arm lever for easy position changes on the steeps. You can switch easily from stowed, to low (12°), to high (18°) and back again while touring.
T1 Heel Rest – The T1 Heel Rest catches the climbing wire in the 12° and 18° positions and is specifically designed to hold the T1 Step Locker in place.
Snap to Ride – T1 bindings slide across pucks utilizing the snap ramp to lock into place for a tight ride down.
CNC Machined Aluminum – Solid CNC machined baseplates for maximum stiffness and durability.
Pillow Line Straps – Pillow Line Straps are ultra durable, comfortable, waterproof, one-piece molded construction, and made 100% in-house. Strap pillows are thin and flexible for a comfortable, conformed fit, while thicker ribs are held off the boot and provide stiffness for a uniquely responsive ride.
Burton Buckles – All straps incorporate Burton's bomber buckles. Ladders and adjusters are produced in-house with unique thermoplastics that maintain flex over a wide temperature range, performing well on spring tours as well as sub-zero suffer fests.
Rip ‘N’ Flip Highbacks – The Rip ‘N’ Flip highback is made from proprietary blended materials for strength, durability and light weight. All Rip ‘N’ Flip highbacks incorporate a tool-free forward lean adjuster (FLAD) for complete customization from 0° to 22° in ride mode. The FLAD toggles easily between forward lean position and -13° touring position for easy transitions.
