Korua Shapes Escalator Split Plus
Boardworks Breakdown:
This is a killer shape for a split. Just enough tail to put down the landing gear, with a wide early rocker nose for epic float. Pair that with a solid section of camber between the feet for supreme edge hold and quick touring and you got yourself a SICK split. On top of that it is stiff enough to charge, light weight enough to be efficient, and the union clips gives it a surprisingly dank connection. We are stoked on this thing.
Manufacturer's Description:
FOR THE BIG ADVENTURES
Whether it’s fresh powder or old pressed snow, the Escalator Split Plus is designed for a power-saving ascent in alpine terrain, without compromising downhill performance. This ultra-light splitboard is your best companion on long and demanding adventures deep into the backcountry. Not only designed for the climb, it also offers an incredible riding experience on the way down, be that through steep and technical terrain or wide-open big mountain lines.
PERSONALITY
The slightly narrower frame makes this shape agile from edge to edge on the way down, and provides excellent grip in the skin track when in climb-mode. The split-specific flex pattern and directional setback offer a smooth riding sensation. We recommend to pair this board with a light binding and boot setup to maximize your vertical meters and quality of turns.
