    Splitboards

    Splitboarding provides real freedom that you cannot achieve with the help of ski lifts alone. With a splitboard you can access the fresh powder fields that you have always wanted to shred and enjoy the tranquility of the mountains, away from the crowds.

    Splitboarding transforms the snowboarding experience through the unique combination of touring and freeriding, allowing snowboarders to reach new heights and discover pristine snow fields far beyond the beaten paths. These innovative boards, which can be split into two to function as a sort of touring skis, offer the ultimate freedom to climb the mountain under one's own power and then enjoy the descent through fresh powder snow. With a range of top brands such as Sims, Korua, Rome, and Union, Behind The Pines provides a premium selection of splitboards designed to meet the diverse needs of every backcountry adventurer.

    What makes splitboarding unique?

    A splitboard is essentially a traditional snowboard that can be split along its length to form two ski-like sections. This modification allows the rider to use special self-adhesive 'skins' under the halves of the board to find grip on the snow during the ascent. Upon reaching the top, the skins are removed, the two halves are reattached, and the splitboard transforms back to its original form, ready for an exhilarating descent through untouched snow.

    The freedom of splitboarding

    The true gift of splitboarding lies in the freedom and access it provides to remote powder fields, far from the crowded slopes and the limitations of ski lifts. This self-reliant approach to the mountain offers not only spectacular descents through pristine snow but also fosters a deep connection with nature and the tranquility of the mountains. Climbing the slopes is more than just a physical challenge; it's a meditative and social activity that forms the core of the splitboard culture. These tours are not only beneficial for fitness but also strengthen the bonds between fellow adventurers.

    Snowboard splitboard FAQ

    Q: What is a splitboard? A: A splitboard is a snowboard that can be divided into two separate pieces, resembling skis, for ascending slopes. It allows riders to hike up with skins attached to the bottom of each half for traction, then reassemble the board at the top for snowboarding down.

    Q: How do I choose the right size splitboard? A: The right size depends on your weight, riding style, and the type of terrain you'll be exploring. Generally, a splitboard should be slightly longer than your regular snowboard to improve float in powder. Consult sizing charts and consider your preferences for maneuverability versus floatation.

    Q: What features should I look for in a splitboard? A: Important features include a reliable binding system, durable and lightweight construction, and appropriate shape and flex for your riding style. Look for boards with good torsional rigidity and edge hold for ascending and descending in various snow conditions.

    Q: Can I use my regular snowboard bindings on a splitboard? A: No, splitboarding requires specific bindings designed to transition between ascending and descending modes. Splitboard bindings offer the flexibility to hike up with skins and then securely attach to your board for snowboarding down.

    Q: What are "skins" and do I need them? A: Skins are strips of fabric with a sticky side that attaches to the bottom of each splitboard half, providing grip on snow during ascents. Yes, skins are essential for climbing and must be tailored to fit the length and width of your splitboard.

    Q: How important is the weight of a splitboard? A: Weight is a significant factor since you'll be ascending with the board on your feet. Lighter boards make climbing easier and reduce fatigue, but balance is key, as too light a board may compromise on durability and performance.

    Q: Are there splitboards for beginners? A: Yes, there are splitboards designed with beginner-friendly features, such as a softer flex and a more forgiving shape. These can be great for learning and gaining confidence in backcountry terrain.

    Q: How do I maintain my splitboard? A: Regular maintenance includes keeping the board clean, checking and tightening hardware, and waxing the base for optimal performance. Pay special attention to the condition of your skins and binding system for safety.

    Q: Can I rent a splitboard before buying? A: Yes, we rent out splitboards. Please contact us for the options.
