You're not the type to go straight down the guy of the most obvious runs. You ride a Weston Backwoods Snowboard, for crying out loud! A freeride board in the shape of a powder chaser, the backwoods excels at all points of your deep snow search. It's very capable through the variable conditions that may show up on your way to the way out, like wind-scoured traverses or icy entrances, getting you to the goods in one piece. And when that secret run opens up into an untracked bowl, the Backwoods goes full-on pow blaster. A fantastic daily driver for deep-snow areas.
Rocker / Camber / Rocker
Directional Freeride Camber – Subtle rocker in the nose and tail provide additional float without losing stability. Camber underfoot provides confident edge hold and pop
Flex Rating – 7 (1 Soft - 10 Stiff)
Tapered Directional – A larger nose provides float in deep snow, while a tapered tail helps to initiate turns quicker.
91% Poplar + 9% Bamboo – Sustainably harvested, the blend keeps the board smooth and surfy with a good amount of pop
Tri-Axe Glass – Multi-axis, stitched fiberglass laminate that offers a precise and responsive ride in any terrain or snow conditions.
Carbon Fiber Stringers – Stringers running the length of the board increase stiffness throughout. By placing them near the center, the board doesn’t become overly stiff torsionally, making for easy turn initiation. They also allow for equivalent stiffness with less core material needed, reducing overall weight.
Polyurethane – Polyurethane is poured during construction to form a single, unified piece of sidewall wrapping around the entire core for increased strength and durability. Because of this process, it also creates less waste material than other sidewall options.
Sintered Durasurf 4001 – The gold standard in bases. The 4000-series sintered bases have a higher density than other options on the market, and are therefore more durable. Additionally, it absorbs more wax, making for a faster and smoother ride. 4000-series PTEX is usually reserved for only top-of-the-line boards due to a higher manufacturing cost, but at Weston it’s the minimum standard.
