Gnu Banked Country Splitboard

Thanks to the Karakoram Ultra Clips, this board locks together with minimal play, providing a ride that feels remarkably similar to a solid deck. You get the same reliable edge-to-edge response without the loose, disconnected sensation often found in splitboards.

With a flex rating of 6.5 and an advanced/expert ability level, this board is designed for experienced riders who are comfortable in steep, technical terrain. If you are just starting to explore the backcountry, you might find the responsive, aggressive nature of this board demanding.

Magne-Traction adds serrated contact points along the edge, which significantly improves grip on hardpack and ice. It provides extra security when you are navigating firm, wind-scoured slopes where a traditional sidecut might slip.

The directional shape and floaty nose are specifically engineered for deep powder and steep, technical lines. While it handles all-mountain terrain well, it truly shines when you are hunting for backcountry pillows and untouched snow.

Yes, the Paulownia wood is exceptionally lightweight, which reduces the energy required for long skins. Less weight underfoot means you will have more stamina left for the descent, especially on longer backcountry tours.

The Carbon Power Bands are integrated to add snap and pop to the board's flex. They help the board rebound quickly out of turns, giving you a more energetic and lively feel when navigating variable terrain.
