willb's Review of Weston Japow Splitboard

Incredible board! Rode this board all of last winter on a multi-month tour of Hokkaido and could not be happier with my purchase. The Japow floats effortlessly in the deep snow with its large nose and swallowtail design. There were times I was literally waist deep and still felt I had great responsiveness from this surfy board. I bought this board primarily to use in the backcountry and was very surprised how effective it actually was. I had no issue adjusting my skins or traversing areas with limited contact area on the board. I also rode it several times at the resort and found it to be just as fun and responsive. Obviously a little heavier due to the added weight from being a split, I wouldn't make it my regular resort board, but works great if it's my only option. An absolutely stellar board I would recommend to anyone in a solid or split depending on what you intend to use it for.
