Splitsticks is a small label situated in Innsbruck which produces high quality-hand-made limited edition Splitboards in Germany.
The crew of Splitsticks has developed a completely new splitboard interface, check it out!
The Splitstick Slash is a pure allmountain splitboard with which you can hit any terrain in the backcountry. The directional shape has a stiff flex 8/10 and camber construction. Due to this, the Slash splitboard reaches an extremely torsional stiffness. With the new binding system Splitsticks managed to reduce 6 inserts in flex relevant positions, this should give an even higher durability and riding performance to this board.
The unique binding system (complete cnc milled) developes its strengths in the ascent. Even if the links between the board halves seem a bit clunky, the splitboard is lightweight and easy to handle. You can mount the crampons with a 90 ° rotation, without stepping out of the binding. The built-in climbing heels can be activated or disactivated super easy. Another interesting feature is the ski mode, in which you can fix the bindings to make a quick descent with skins, or just skate a flat section.
The direct connection between board and bindings and the wide climbing-heels give you excellent pressure on the edges. So you earn some benefits traversing and doing the kickturns. You can go much longer without crampons and thus save a lot of energy and time. Apart from the tremendous edge hold in the ascent it brings additional security in difficult passages, and when it is no longer possible you simply mount the crampons and keep on going.
The Splitboard Slash wants to be ridden powerful and fast. With the extremely direct powertransfer you can do everything you always wanted to do and even more.
The Splitsticks System is trimmed for absolute durability and easy replacement of worn parts at low prices. So if you are looking for a splitboard for many years with full functionality, this unit operates properly.
In short: The whole concept of Splitsticks Slash is thought out extremely well and implemented perfectly.
Take a look at the system more closely, it is a real alternative to what's been on the market till now.
We already had the opportunity to test this system and are absolutely stoked. Rock n'Roll
