Weston Backwoods Splitboard 2024

Get back in the woods--immediately! The Weston Backwoods Splitboard is Weston's idea of the perfect splitboard. It's designed to flourish in every condition you're likely to find on your adventures, with a solid freeride shape, medium/stiff flex, and bomber construction. There's plenty of pow float built in to this lightweight board, with a rockered nose and a bit of taper along its length. Camber in between your feet help grip on hardpack and skin tracks, and all the little split-specific tech bits add up to a perfect splitboard. You can only ride one at a time, so you may as well get one as versatile as the Backwoods!

Product Details

Rocker Type

Directional Freeride CamberSubtle rocker in the nose and tail provide additional float without losing stability. Camber underfoot provides confident edge hold and pop.

Flex

Flex Rating6 (1 Soft - 10 Stiff)

Shape

Directional Freeride with Slight Taper

Core

91% Poplar / 9% BambooSustainably harvested, this blend keeps the board smooth and powerful.

Laminates

Tip to Tail CarbonCarbon fiber run through the entire core from tip to tail to provide added pop and response.

Tri-Axe GlassMulti-axis, stitched fiberglass laminate that offers a precise and responsive ride in any ­terrain or snow conditions.

Sidewalls

PolyurethanePolyurethane is poured during construction to form a single, unified piece of sidewall wrapping around the entire core for increased strength and durability. Because of this process, it also creates less waste material than other sidewall options.

Base

Boltless Base

Sintered Durasurf 4001The gold standard in bases. The 4000-series sintered bases have a higher density than other options on the market, and are therefore more durable. Additionally, it absorbs more wax, making for a faster and smoother ride. 4000-series PTEX is usually reserved for only top-of-the-line boards due to a higher manufacturing cost, but at Weston it’s the minimum standard.

Topsheet

Rugged TopsheetPolymide is eco friendly and made from castor beans. The topsheet is durable and resistant to scratches and scuffs.

Additional Features

Karakoram UltraClips and Active JoiningKarakoram UltraClips and Tip-Locks use Active Joining to spring load the seam of your splitboard, eliminating the rattling shearing, and rolling inherent to passive slip-fit connections. Simply close the lever to lock in the most responsive ride.

Stitched Tips

Forged Tips

Binding Compatibility

Rooted InsertsThe odds of pulling out inserts on a snowboard are about zero, but just to make sure Weston have reinforced all of the inserts areas with precision-cut sheets of flax. This improved durability and naturally dampens chatter. Additionally, flax is a sustainable crop and is good for the environment.

Split TechWeston doesn't skimp on their splits. You'll see a full inner metal edge, complete with sidewall and dampening tape. Also, when facing a kick-turn on a steep slope, you want all the help you can get - that's why Weston balance's their splits so that they are tail heavy.

Splitboard Binding

Spark R&D Surge ST Splitboard Bindings

Endorsed by hard chargers everywhere, the Spark R&D Surge ST Splitboard Bindings have undergone sufficient change to warrant an upgrade to "ST" - smooth touring - status. Spark's own overmolding process puts low-friction, high strength plastic over existing metal components to reduce friction and increase durability pretty much anywhere the binding moves, making touring smoother, easier and quieter. Still the stiffest of the Spark offerings, the Surge ST also has a re-designed Asym highback and overmolded ST Whammy Bars where the bar meets the baseplate. A no-compromise approach to the riding after the approach.

Product Details

Tour Mode

Improved ST (Smooth Touring) ModeSpark injection molds a proprietary thermoplastic over existing aluminum or steel parts in a process called "overmolding," reducing friction and improving durabillity.

ST Whammy BarsOvermolded plastic blend where the climbing wire meets the baseplate to eliminate stickiness. (Note: not backward compatible with previous Arc, Surge or other older models)

ST Touring BracketsOvermolded with low-friction proprietary plastic over and through the bracket holes in the aluminum base - strong, smoother pivoting, and lasts 4 times longer than the old brass bushing.

Baseplate

CNC Machined BaseplatesCNC machined baseplates remain solid for max stiffness and durability. All of the baseplate side windows have been partially filled to increase durability and strength

Straps

Pillow Line StrapsPillow Line Straps are lightweight, durable, comfortable, waterproof, one-piece molded construction, and made 100% in-house. Surge ST ankle straps are wide and asymmetrical around the boot for incredible all-around support. Toe straps are designed to be used as a toe cap, but also fit nicely as a traditional strap across the top of the boot.

Ladders and adjusters are produced in-house with unique thermoplastics that maintain flex over a wide temperature range.

Buckles

Proven Burton Buckles

Highback

Asym Rip 'N' Flip HighbacksAsymmetrical design features individual left and right highbacks that slope inward matching the rider’s stance / The upper section is flatter for improved lateral mobility / More material at the base for increased longevity and durability / Higher bottom edge won’t snag on boots with crampon welts or soles that wrap high on the heel

Tool free micro-adjustable from 0° to 22° for complete customization of your forward lean angle

Flippin’ FLAD toggles between your forward lean angle and -13° touring position for easy transitions.

Made with proprietary custom blended materials for improved strength and durability, while minimizing weight.

Lateral slots for our BD Touring Strap for greater edge control while skinning.
