Völkl Cashew Split Snowboard

Eco Features:

Eco-friendly No-Topsheet Construction (hemp/canvas weave/wooden veneer topsheet reduces plastic and weight)

60% Recycled Steel Edges

Sintered Recycled Base

Natural Wax Finish (biodegradable


Just like the Cashew, the Cashew Split Kit is the perfect choice for any backcountry adventure thanks to maximum float, shock-absorbing wooden sidewalls with TPU dampening and a weight-saving as well as eco-friendly No-Topsheet Construction. But at the same time, the board is not just a split Cashew: Super light carbon replaces veneer wood reinforcements saving additional weight for an easygoing hiking experience. Furthermore, the insert positions have a bit more set back – hello powder runs! You even have the option to ride the board as a short tail on the very back position. The flex is a bit stiffer as the Cashew's to provide for better hiking characteristics and more stability at high speed. With the unique Völkl Skin Pin System you can set up the custom-fit skins within the blink of an eye, after you have cleaned the base with the skin bag's micro fleece part. Only a few movements and you convert your board into two wide touring skis or the other way around. Without any tools at all! No question that you as well as the environment will profit from the eco-friendly Cashew Split! [via voelkl-snowboards.com]
