Float over pillow lines and carve light and nimble turns down open bowls. Stand at the top of a hard earned peak, scoping wide open untouched slopes. Let out a scream that echoes in the canyons below. Let out yelps of powder surfing joy that only your partner can hear or understand. This could be you on the Weston Hatchet Splitboard, a freeride backcountry pow crushing machine. Designed to be ridden shorter than the average board, its large, floaty surface area makes up for the reduction in length, along with a multi radial twin camber design that adds solid carving ability into the mix. Pop, play, and have a good ol' pow day on the Weston Hatchet Splitboard.
Rocker / Camber / Rocker
Flex Rating – 7 (1 Soft - 10 Stiff)
Multi Radial Twin Camber – A large camber section in the middle of the board is flanked by a more aggressive radius to the back, combined with flat to early rise segments to provide additional pop and float while maintaining the edge feel of true camber.
Directional Twinish Shape – Slightly tapered at the nose and longer in the tail. Centered on camber
Slayer Wood Core | Bamboo / Poplar – This is our bamboo/poplar core used in most of the boards in our line. Designed to be energetic and damp.
Stitched Tips – Weston's tip spacers are stitched to the core to provide added durability.
S Weave Carbon – Carbon is an innovative technology where carbon is weaved through the core from top sheet to base and back to create maximum pop.
Tri-Axe Glass – Multi-axis, stitched fiberglass laminate that offers a precise and responsive ride in any terrain or snow conditions.
PU Sidewalls – Highly durable sidewall that also provides added dampening.
Electra Sintered Base – Carbon additives distribute static friction across the base, creating a more even film of water to glide on Weston's fastest base.
Rugged Topsheet – Polymide is eco friendly and made from castor beans. The topsheet is durable and resistant to scratches and scuffs.
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.

The most versatile binding in Karakoram's splitboard lineup, the Karakoram PRIME NOMAD + Split Interface Splitboard Bindings deliver in any touring environment. With a chassis feel of "6" and a slightly stiffer highback flex, the Prime Nomad is set for all day or all week missions into God-knows-where (hopefully you've mapped it out). Smooth, light, and quick and easy to transition with, this binding is money as soon as your step away from the resort.
DualSpeed Risers with Heel-Lock – These risers open with a pole basket, have two heights, and have a retractable heel lock that you can flip up when you need it.
Smooth Touring Pivot – Independent sleeves rotate freely on a fixed thru-axle, similar to a bike axle, making these stiff and smooth. They're wide for touring rigidity, they shed snow well, and the quick-releasing bracket allows for simple transitions.
Dual Ride-Stride – Highback goes from ride mode to walk mode with a 1/4 turn of the forward lean block. Ride Mode: 0° to 22°, in 2° increments, Surf Mode: 0° or 11°, Walk Mode: -8° allows for longer stride.
Prime System – Quickly attach your Prime bindings to your solid board with Quiver-Connectors or splitboard with the Ride Mode 2.0.
Ride Mode 2.0 – Easy snow clearing, drop-on change-overs, and no slop. Ride Mode 2.0 ensures the most solid connection between all your components.
Interlocking Seam Tabs – No separation: tabs interlock across the seam of your board, interlocking and pre-loading the two halves for a solid ride.
Power Link – Getting your binding in and out of ride mode has never been easier than with Power Link, an ergonomic activation lever that allows you to remove your bindings or engage with one simple, fluid motion. Pull up to lock, push down to unlock.
Active Joining – No slop with instant response. Pre-loaded contact points create an ultra solid connection between your bindings and splitboard.
Aluminum Hardware – Custom 7075-T6 screws and hollow pins mean every gram counts.
Open Chassis Design – Allows your board to flex naturally on its own, unaffected by bindings.
Asymmetrical Heelcup – The high sidewalls give support while sidehilling, and the low sidewalls allow for freedom of movement while riding.
Nomad X-Type Heelcup – 2X stronger than standard aluminum, these CNC'd baseplates transfer power with an extremely high strength-to-weight ratio.
Flex (1 Soft - 10 Stiff) – 6
Air-Pod Straps – Made from P-Lite TPE, which is 30% lighter than standard TPU. These lightweight straps feature Independent Pressure Pods that articulate to eliminate pressure points.
Airform Straps – Independent Pressure Pods articulate to boot eliminating pressure points and pinch points.
Super Pivot Ratchets – Low profile Nylon composite ratchets are robust, smooth, and up to 30% lighter.
Reactive Highbacks – Delivering featherweight support with precision feedback, these have a great stiffness to weight ratio.

Engineered for versatility across the full range of backcountry conditions, these skins combine Pomoca's super grippy mohair / nylon Climb 2.0 plush with their premium Glide treatment for optimal skin track performance. From mid-Winter pow missions to the Spring corn harvest, the evo x Pomoca Pro Glide Splitboard Skins are ready to rumble.

Ever Dry 3.0 DWR – PFC-Free
Ready2climb – The ready2climb skin can be cut to a specific ski in just two minutes without any special tools. The adjustable loop can be fixed to any type of ski.
Grip – Pomoca uses a combination of materials and weaving techniques to combine glide and durability with gripping power. Proper alignment and the fiber attachment systems make Pomoca skins very stable under all conditions and for the life span of the skin.
Glide – This exclusive process gives ski tourers extra glide with less effort. This treatment, applied at the end of the production process and to to entire length of the fiber, makes the skin glide and resist moisture more effectively. Skins with Glide offer an effective process for the entire life of the skin, and unique anti-glopping performance.
Safer Skin Light – Pomoca has succeeded in making it's classic Safer Skin membrane lighter. Thanks to finer layers in the membrane, Safer Skin Light is 12% lighter (150g / m² less). Safer Skin Light makes each pair 60 - 75g lighter, while remaining 100% waterproof and providing slightly less wear resistance.
