If natural take-offs matter as much as powder turns on a tour, the MT 1365s is Fjell’s freestyle-inspired option. Its connection to Andreas Wiig’s riding style describes the concept rather than replacing our own test.
Is the Fjell MT 1365s Splitboard 26/27 right for your tours?
Freestyle and freeride splitters get a directional outline, slightly narrower tail and rocker-camber-rocker profile. Fjell specifies firm flex. This differs from the more playful true-twin approach of the MT 1230s: both can suit creative riding but start from different shapes and stance positions.
What should you consider on the ascent?
Appropriate sizing matters on longer tours. Listed weights range from 2.8 to 3.4 kg. Do not automatically choose the longest version for stability if it makes manoeuvring on a tight track unnecessarily demanding.
How do you choose suitable length and width?
The splitboard sizes are 157, 161.8, 164.5 and 168 cm, with waists from 25.9 to 26.7 cm. Smaller solid-board sizes on other Fjell pages do not automatically apply to the split; the s in the model name helps identify it.
How do boots, bindings and skins work together?
Start by matching boot fit, board width and lateral support. An oversized boot loses support before pressure reaches the edge. For the Fjell MT 1365s Splitboard, we would prioritise heel hold and a highback suited to your weight over choosing the stiffest possible binding. Playful downhill handling need not mean a setup that collapses sideways on a traverse. Practise both touring and riding modes with your actual interface and its specified screws. Plan suitable skins too: length, width and nose and tail fittings need to work together.

Which of our test experiences help you?
We have not yet tested the Fjell MT 1365s Splitboard ourselves. Our advice uses current manufacturer information and our Gear Guide principles. An older model introduction provides history rather than our own riding test. Manufacturer-shop customer ratings are not used as our editorial scores either.
For a demo, start with a suitable size and your own boots. Check whether you can apply pressure comfortably in slow turns as well as at speed. After a longer climb, consider whether width and flex still feel manageable. A consistent setup is more useful than comparing random boards with very different lengths or stance settings.
What has changed since 25/26 and earlier models?
Fjell currently includes this model in its regular range. The manufacturer page does not identify a separate technical redesign for 26/27 or a complete change list from 25/26. This page is therefore our guide for the 26/27 season rather than a claim of a newly developed annual model. Compare the actual generation, length, width, hardware and package contents. A new graphic or different price alone does not establish changed tuning.
What is included in the price and what else do you need?
Fjell lists Union clips and hooks on the board. Include bindings and skins separately when planning the setup. Colour variants are grouped here because another topsheet or base colour is not an additional shape.
Which alternatives should you compare?
Compare Fjell MT 1230s Splitboard and Fjell MT 1542s Splitboard. The riding-style differences are discussed above. Use comparable sizes and your own boots on a demo where possible. A different stance or substantially softer binding can change more than a small dimensional difference between boards. Decide by how well the setup suits your usual tours.
FAQ: What should you know before the first tour?
MT 1365s or MT 1230s for backcountry freestyle?
The 1365s is directional and described as firm. The 1230s has a true-twin shape without setback and smaller size options. Start with boots, preferred riding direction and suitable length before comparing materials.
Which size and width suit me?
The splitboard sizes are 157, 161.8, 164.5 and 168 cm, with waists from 25.9 to 26.7 cm. Smaller solid-board sizes on other Fjell pages do not automatically apply to the split; the s in the model name helps identify it.
Have you tested this model yourselves?
