Eclipse Splitboard X Haa Aani Alliance

Overview

The Eclipse is a powder & freeride hybrid that prefers trees, powder and steeps. Like many powder boards, the Eclipse has a very wide nose and a tapered crescent tail, but it differentiates itself with a mid-stiff flex, Weston's Freeride camber-dominant profile and only 10mm of setback. This combination keeps the board nimble in trees, reliable on crud, and floaty in deep snow. A powerful core of poplar and bamboo stringers keep this board smooth and surfy with tip to tail carbon stringers to give it a little extra pop. The castor bean based Rugged Nylon topsheet, helps shed snow and adds durability while the Sintered 4001 base provides top of the line speed in a minimalist black design to create seamless repairs. All of this helps the Eclipse to slay pow while still performing in variable conditions as you hop from pow stash to pow stash. As with all Weston splitboards, they shift the touring bracket forward to make kick-turns a breeze and on this model they utilize active latching Karakoram UltraClips 2.0, installed with their holeless base technology, to help create the most responsive ride. With the Mission Series, Weston has teamed up with Tlingit Alaskan native artist and owner of the Trickster Company, Crystal Worl, along with Zeal Optics, Smartwool, Pret and MountainFLOW Eco Wax under the Haa Aaní Alliance. This alliance was formed to create the Salmon Way of Life collaboration which gives back to restore and preserve the waterways and salmon spawning grounds of not just Alaska, but these habitats globally.
