Splitboarding With Jones and Karakoram

Splitboarding is a unique way to get outdoors during the winter and really enjoy yourself while staying fit and active during the winter. If you are used to running, swimming, or doing some sort of outdoor activity that requires warm air, then splitboarding is a great way for you to have an adventure without the warmth. Splitboarding is like crosscountry skiing and backcountry snowboarding all in one.  The snowboard splits in half to create cross country skis that allow you to travel uphill and to the top of mountains. Once you reach the top, or as high up as you would like to go, you switch the skis back into a snowboard, and fly down the mountain on completely untouched powder. This brings the term "powder" to a whole new light. In order to enjoy the backcountry on a splitboard, it is important to have the right set up... And sometimes, two companies come together and combine forces to make a ridiculously awesome product. The peanut butter and jelly of splitboarding would have to be the new, combined force of Jones Snowboards and Karakoram Bindings. With the Jones Solution splitboard you get the feel of a regular snowboard. The edge is solid and lets you ride through icy sections with full control, but when you hit the powder, the Jones Solution really soars. The Karakoram set up is great for any board, but is especially compatible with the Solution. They work together like clockwork. The easy-to-use Karakoram system is great when it comes to transitioning from touring to riding (and back). Getting into the backcountry and riding and touring is a lot of fun, and having a system and board that gives you the most out of the experience is key. The Karakoram and Solution duo is a great way to get a full enjoyment out of the splitboarding experience.
