Tested and trusted by us, used and abused the world over, there's a reason this Split won a Transworld Good Wood award for Splitboard of the year!
From United Shapes:
"From remote peaks to low angle glades, the Experience Ascent transmutes your uphill exertions into pure joy on the way back down.
Next-generation geometry unlocks maximum floatation, effortless turn initiation, power and stability all in one package for a ride unlike any other.
Reimagine the way you glide. Our all-new spherical geometry combines a subtle 3d nose profile, with positive camber, and classic freestyle tail kick.
Elite, ultralight FSC Certified blended wood core. Full-length bamboo stringers for additional power. Asymmetric seamless urethane sidewall. Biaxial glass with woven vertical stringers. Our proprietary carbon control sets the rods directly into precision-milled CNC slots set into the core. Premium IS7500 sintered base.
Karakoram Ultra-Clip 2.0 System with Active-Joining for the very best connection."
