Product Info
When you think about your ideal splitboard, there's probably a lot that comes to mind. You want something versatile and capable of handling the varied terrain and snow conditions that you find in the backcountry. You want it to be lightweight, able to burn rubber up the skin track and flip kick turns with ease, but you want it to be powerful too. No point sacrificing enjoyment on the best days just to make the crummy days less crummy. You want something that can float through the pow stashes, inspire confidence hopping down icy chutes, and allow for playful riding on those perfect sunny corn laps. You want the Weston Backwoods Carbon Splitboard. It's just a darn good board with a crazy light construction. It's fun to ride, super versatile, and above all reliable for whatever the wilderness has in store.
Product Details
Rocker Type
Rocker / Camber / Rocker
Flex
Flex Rating – 7 (1 Soft - 10 Stiff)
Shape
Directional Multi Radial Camber Rocker Profile – A gradual increase from the nose to a more aggressive camber radius in the tail provides better pop/dampening on drops and control on bigger lines.
Core
Strike Wood Core
Laminates
Carbon Weave
Vertical Aluminum
Sidewalls
PU Sidewalls – Highly durable sidewall that also provides added dampening.
Base
Electra Sintered Base – Carbon additives distribute static friction across the base, creating a more even film of water to glide on Weston's fastest base.
Topsheet
Lacquer Topsheet – Tried and true, lacquer is reliable, durable and bonds very well to the core and layup.
Additional Features
Karakoram UltraClips and Active Joining – Karakoram 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 Inserts – The 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 Tech – Weston 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.

Terrain
Splitboarding A splitboard snowboard is built specifically for the backcountry rider. Splitboards are designed to break down into two separate halves for touring and uphill travel (with climbing skins). Special bindings are required as well. Once you've reached the top of the terrain feature, you reconnect your splitboard for the ride back downhill. However, it's important to note that you will need appropriate backcountry tools, knowledge of the backcountry, weather and snow conditions and climbing skins to safely take advantage of the freedom of a splitboard.

Ability Level
Advanced-Expert Whether you charge the steepest lines, hit the biggest jumps in the park or carve with race-like precision, advanced to expert level skis, snowboards, boots and bindings are for the more aggressive rider. In skis and snowboards, you'll often find layers of metal, carbon or other stringers for rigidity and power, while advanced to expert level boots and bindings are usually on the stiffer side of the spectrum for rebound and precision steering.

Rocker Type:
Rocker/Camber/Rocker

Rocker Type
Rocker/Camber/Rocker Rocker/Camber/Rocker shapes seek to give you both hard-carving edgehold on firm snow from camber underfoot with enhanced turnability and float in powder from the rockered tip and tail. This profile is increasingly popular for freeride boards designed primarily for soft snow.

Flex Rating:
Stiff
More
Flex Rating
Stiff The amount a snowboard flexes varies significantly between boards. Snowboard flex ratings are not necessarily standardized across manufacturers, so the flex may vary from brand to brand. Many manufacturers will give a number rating ranging from 1-10, 1 being softest and 10 being stiffest. Here at evo we have standardized the manufacturers' number ratings to a feel rating ranging from soft to very stiff. Generally you will find flex ratings of 1-2 as soft, 3-5 as medium, 6-8 as stiff, and 9-10 as very stiff. Flex ratings and feel may ultimately vary from snowboard to snowboard.
