Voile Split Decision Snowboard - 2006

Get on a Split Decision Freeride Snowboard from Voile and get away from the crowds. Leave resorts, crowded lift lines and spendy ticket prices behind with this easy-to-use and fun to ride backcountry board. Voile innovated the Split system years ago and has set the standard with a simple, but solid binding and a board that is available in many sizes. Leave resorts in your wake and shred in the backcountry—the Split Decision divides into two separate planks that allow you to travel quickly over deep snow and up steep terrain. Once on top, the binding interface quickly locks the two halves together to form an all-terrain snowboard. The snowboard has a long nose and wide shape to float through powder and glide easily over heavy snow. The Split Decision's responsive flex and dialed sidecut rip in any snow condition and the edges have killer hold on hard-pack. Get a Split Decision and ride free.

Bottom Line: Earn your turns. The Voile Split Decision Freeride Snowboard gets you up so you can get down.

One Solid Ride

By:

If you're lucky enough to get your hands on one of these, you won't be disappointed. The construction, geometry and ride of this board are incredible. A million miles away from where Voile started with these. You could ride it inbounds and not really notice a difference. Juicy sidecut for quick turns and a great nose and tail shapes. Although Burton's split is a bit lighter and has a different flex pattern (softer with more camber), I like the overall geometry of the Voile much more. The price on these is a great deal. You'll spend much more on a full Burton, Prior or Winterstick set up.

off piste.

I'm a better snowboarder than skier and the skiers were having all the fun off piste. This board makes it possible to enjoy the same off piste skiing easier. The system is super simple to set up and after a while it really doesn't take you that much more time to set up. Just make sure your paying attention and you don't set the bindings in tour mode backwards. The super wide platforms for the skins is all so awesome at going straight up stuff others can't. Performs well and love touring on it.

Ascending made easier!

By:

I love my new Split Board. It rides like a dream through powder. However, because the board is significantly heavier than my normal board, it is hard to ride in heavy, sun-baked snow. The board is a little tedious to put together. Skinning up is easy and so much better than snow shoes! Use your heels, stand upright, and keep your skis flat while skinning- this helps a lot. The system is really easy to take apart and put back together.

Splitboard mania

Works great. The pins are a little too easy to bend, but you can just bend them back. Kicks the snowshoer’s butt up the mountain.

Voile Split Decision 166

By:
April 4, 2006

This is a great board with well designed hardware. The middle edge does protrude downward slightly and when it is super sharp, can make it a bit tricky on flat hard-pack. I just slightly chamfered the edge and it is fine now. When I stomp the snow off before getting on a chair (which isn't too often since I use this board mostly in the backcountry) the rear clip will sometimes come undone. Not a huge problem, just something to watch out for. Overall, I am very impressed with the board and hardware.
