Prior Spearhead Split - 2016

/images/brands/prior/logo/prior_logo.gif

Manufacturer's Description:

Board comes with tip/tail clips and Chinese hooks. All other splitboard hardware is available on our accessories page.

The Spearhead Split provides arguably the most versatile Freeride performance in the Prior powder board lineup. Big alpine bowls to trees, the Spearhead Split handles it all! The Spearhead’s elongated nose and surf inspired nose rocker profile provide unparalleled float and non catch, edge to edge turn ability. Its moderate sidecut, taper and cambered tail gives enhanced performance and drive, especially when powering off the back foot. The Spearhead is named after the powder filled Spearhead range which sits just behind Blackcomb Mountain here in Whistler and much of the Spearhead R&D was done in its chutes.

XTC Carbon Construction is available as an upgrade to all Prior splitboards and saves an average of 500 grams (1lb 1oz) off a Prior splitboard pressed with our standard quadraxial fiberglass.

Profile: Nose Rocker Provides floatation and predictability in powder of all kinds. It also allows the board to initiate sooner. Traditional camber in the tail provides additional power driving off the back foot.

Rider Type: Self propelled back­country powder hounds who want to maximize their overall powder experience without compromising all mountain performance.

Best For: Powder, wide open bowls, glades, trees, hardpack, crud, variable snowpack. Great all-rounder.

Recommended for freeride riding.
