Description

The Weston Backwoods Carbon is a lightweight and high-performance splitboard that is capable of big mountain riding, all human-powered of course. The board has a powder-centric, Directional Multi Radial Camber-Rocker profile and proclaimed 7/10 flex pattern. That means it has a wide nose and narrow tail to help maintain stability at high speeds in all snow conditions especially powder, but also keep the board nimble when riding through trees. The 'Multi-Radius' is a varying turning radius to further enhance the versatile riding style. What gives this board a lot of energy is it's Strike Wood Core and Carbon Weave Layup. The core is comprised of Paulownia wood laminated at a 45° angle [to enhance torsional rigidity] and full-length aluminum stringers [to improve overall strength and dampening]. A multi-directional carbon fiber laminate is layered with the core to bring energy and responsiveness while also saving on weight. An Electra Sintered Base (carbon-infused PTEX?!) further adds to the high-performance details of this top-notch splitboard. This board is light enough to spend long days in the backcountry, and reach that far off objective that you've always had in the back of your mind. Oh and don't worry, once you reach the top of said badass backcountry line, the Backwoods Carbon is more than capable of the riding down with style. If you want an ultralight splitboard that is capable of riding at an expert level, look to the Weston Backwoods Carbon.

With most Carbon boards, we would recommend checking out a

hard boot binding (like this one from Phantom Bindings). This will make for an ultralight split boarding setup so you can stay out longer and go further with your equipment.

    Surfy and Suprising

    This is my go to board and splitboard for bigger powder days. its obvious with its shape while it would excel in those conditions. What surprised me the most though was how well the board performed in firm, icy, and groomed conditions. The sidecut is perfect and itll be great this spring. From Cat Skiing on our deep days to guiding and teaching this spring this board rips and the fun really surprised me. For a carbon its light yet not too stiff
