Weston Riva Splitboard

The Riva is designed for advanced riders. With a stiff 7/10 flex rating and a directional shape, it demands precise input and experience to handle technical terrain effectively, making it less forgiving for those just starting out in the backcountry.

The 9mm taper narrows the tail relative to the nose, which helps the tail sink slightly in deep snow. This creates a natural lift for the nose, making it easier to initiate turns and maintain float in powder without sacrificing stability on firmer snow.

This board excels in demanding, variable backcountry conditions. Its directional CamRock profile and stiff flex provide the stability needed for steep, technical descents and icy traverses, while the rocker zones ensure it still performs well in deep powder.

The flax fiber reinforcement is placed in the insert area to increase durability and dampening. It adds strength to the most high-stress part of the board, helping to absorb vibrations and protect the integrity of the inserts during aggressive riding.

No, the castor bean polyamide top sheet is designed to be just as durable as traditional materials. It reduces the environmental footprint of the manufacturing process without compromising the board's structural performance or impact resistance.
