The Weston Riva Splitboard is everything you need in an aggressive backcountry board. It's most comfortable at speed in deeper snow, just like you are. A traditional freeride shape really comes alive when you approach mobbing speeds, making the Riva perfect as a splitboard: it tours very well, is durable and dependable, and won't leave you wanting more board when you realize that far away chute is gnarlier than you thought. Hop on a Weston Riva and find your limits!
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 – 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.
71% Poplar / 26% Paulownia / 3% Bamboo
Tip to Tail Carbon – Carbon fiber run through the entire core from tip to tail to provide added pop and response.
Tri-Axe Glass – Multi-axis, stitched fiberglass laminate that offers a precise and responsive ride in any terrain or snow conditions.
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.
Boltless Base
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.
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.
Stitched Tips
Forged Tips
Skin Attachment – Tip holes (for Pomoca Z-Clips) and tail notches.
Shifted Touring Bracket Position
Rooted Inserts – The odds of pulling out inserts on a snowboard are about zero, but just to make sure Weston have reinforced all of the inserts areas with precision-cut sheets of flax. This improved durability and naturally dampens chatter. Additionally, flax is a sustainable crop and is good for the environment.
Split Tech – Weston doesn't skimp on their splits. You'll see a full inner metal edge, complete with sidewall and dampening tape. Also, when facing a kick-turn on a steep slope, you want all the help you can get - that's why Weston balance's their splits so that they are tail heavy.
