The Jones Ultra Mountain Twin takes a freestyle shape and combines it with their stiff, carbon-laden “Ultra” construction. The result? One of the better freestyle boards we’ve used for aggressive, hard-charging riders. Check out our full review.
The extremely lightweight, powder-oriented Amplid Millisurf splitboard won a “Best Of” award in our Winter Buyer’s Guide this year, and you can now check out our full review to see why.
After using it for more than 50 days, Black Diamond’s Expedition 3 pole has proven to be a reliable piece of equipment that’s worth a look for splitboarders, skiers, or anyone who wants a packable and durable pole for year-round use.
We’ve recently seen an increasing number of surf-inspired boards hit the market, but the Never Summer Swift Split stands out as a splitboard that’s not only surfy, but that’s also stable enough for riding fast and dropping cliffs.
We’re big fans of Spark R&D’s simple and reliable splitboard bindings, and they just released an even lighter version of their Surge binding. So what, if any, compromises are made by going with the new, lighter Surge Pro?
After over 60 days on it, we’ve come to really like Rossignol’s all-mountain twin, the Angus, and think it could make for a capable 1-board quiver.
The Union Ultra FC is one of the highest performing, most responsive snowboard bindings we’ve ever used. Check out our review.
We’ve been very impressed by K2’s Ender snowboard boot, and would recommend it to a wide variety of riders.
Spark R&D updated their Surge binding for the 17/18 season. So how burly is it, and how does it compare to other lightweight, stiff splitboard bindings like the Karakoram Prime Carbon?
The K2 Split Bean is a super fun, responsive splitboard for jibbing and surfing deep snow, spring corn, and slush.
The K2 Aspect isn’t just a mountaineering boot that can be used for splitboarding, it’s a great snowboard boot that performs well in more serious and technical terrain.
The Rossignol XV Magtek Split is a powerful and versatile splitboard.
The NOW Recon binding delivers a uniquely powerful AND playful ride.
Karakoram’s Prime Connect swaps easily between boards and can be use inbounds and in the backcountry.
The G3 carbon Scapegoat is our top choice for deep, human-powered pow days.
The Amplid Milligram is one of the lightest and most responsive splitboards we’ve ever been on
Reviewer Andrew Forward got into a little bit of everything this winter in Alaska, and it’s all worth watching.
The Fitwell Backcountry is a snowboard mountaineering boot that’s optimized for steep climbs and descents.
The Deeluxe Independent BC is a well-designed splitboarding / backcountry boot that performs well on both the ascent and descent.
