For The Big Adventures
Whether it’s fresh powder or old pressed snow, the Escalator Split Plus is designed for a power-saving ascent in alpine terrain, without compromising downhill performance. This ultra-light splitboard is your best companion on long and demanding adventures deep into the backcountry. Not only designed for the climb, it also offers an incredible riding experience on the way down, be that through steep and technical terrain or wide-open big mountain lines.
Personality
The slightly narrower frame makes this shape agile from edge to edge on the way down, and provides excellent grip in the skin track when in climb-mode. The split-specific flex pattern and directional setback offer a smooth riding sensation. We recommend to pair this board with a light binding and boot setup to maximize your vertical meters and quality of turns.
The Details
The Escalator Split features our FLOAT CAMBER, which curves into a rocker shape in the nose, giving you the lift you need in deep powder and stability under-foot on the uphill. To further enhance the performance and durability of this ultralight shape we upgraded the Escalator with the snow-repellent and repairable Perlatech topsheet. The nose holes secure our U-Hook skin mounting system and the nose notch prevents hang ups in the skin track. For an easy and quick setup we suggest using our pre-cut custom skins on this shape.

Our KORUA Skins are fully customized and “ready to go” with your KORUA Splitboard.
The updated Mix Mohair line (65% Mohair, 35% Nylon) was developed by experts from KOHLA in Austria for everyday use, and is focused on the balanced combination of excellent grip and selected gliding. Our team wanted the perfect product for touring in deep powder, spring conditions, on-piste, or glacier. The better durability and abrasion of the Mix Mohair, as opposed to pure mohair, helps us achieve these results!
The impregnated material works to minimize calk build up for top glide performance. Repeated application of the Dry Climb Treatment ensures longevity of your climbing skins.
The front U-Hooks are secured in the pre-cut holes of our splitboards, and the length-adjustable rear hooks engage in pre-cut notches in the tail of our splitboards.
