The Weston Switchback Splitboard is a jack of all trades that maintains an edge in variable terrain and doesn't mind getting down and dirty in the backcountry. Its poplar wood core is on the heavier side of Weston's split cores, but provides the extra dampening, pop, and durability that many splitboards lack. If you find yourself picking your way through tree filled approaches, or just aren't sure what direction you want to take in backcountry riding, the Weston Switchback Splitboard is the perfect foray onto the skin track.
Rocker / Camber / Rocker
Flex Rating – 6 (1 Soft - 10 Stiff)
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.
Standard Split | Poplar – Weston's classic, no frills, all popular wood core
Tri-Axe Glass – Multi-axis, stitched fiberglass laminate that offers a precise and responsive ride in any terrain or snow conditions.
UHMW PE Sidewalls – Highly durable sidewall that protects core from impact and increases torsional stability.
Stitched Tips – Weston's tip spacers are stitched to the core to provide added durability.
Sintered – Carbon additives distribute static friction across the base, creating a more even film of water to glide on and our fastest base.
TPU – A lightweight yet durable alternative to laquer topsheets.

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.
