Weston Backwoods Splitboard - 2026

Chase powder and explore remote terrain with the Backwoods Splitboard—Weston’s responsive, surfy, and powerful backcountry charger for riders who want confidence and control on every line

What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying:

"I’ve toured deep into the Wasatch with the Backwoods and it’s become my all-time favorite split. It surfs powder beautifully thanks to that big nose and setback stance, but what surprised me most is how composed it feels when the snow turns variable. The carbon-reinforced core keeps it responsive and light on the skin track, while the camber underfoot delivers real edge hold on the descent."

Who It’s For

Advanced to Expert Splitboarders:

Ideal for seasoned backcountry riders and confident freeriders who want one board to handle long tours, steep descents, and deep powder days. Great for those who prioritize float, stability, and reliable performance across changing snow conditions.

What It’s For

Backcountry Powder and Technical Lines:

Built for earning turns in remote zones, the Backwoods Splitboard thrives in soft snow, alpine bowls, and tight tree runs. Its directional camber-rocker profile blends float with precision, ensuring smooth skinning ascents and controlled, powerful descents in any snowpack.

Why We Like It

Surfy Float Meets All-Terrain Versatility:

We love that the Backwoods isn’t a one-trick powder pony. It rides light and fast in deep snow yet stays composed in variable conditions. The bamboo and poplar core backed by tip-to-tail carbon gives it power without extra weight, and the sintered base ensures lasting speed in the backcountry. Plus, the Karakoram UltraClips lock both halves together seamlessly for a solid, resort-like feel.
