Endless powder runs, but no lift? With the eco-friendly Cashew as Split Kit Version, Völkl Snowboards provides the solution for virgin backcountry moments in accord with nature.

You can split the Cashew longitudinally with only a few simple moves – et voila, you actually get two wide touring skis. Thanks to Voilé's Split Kit System the bindings can be set up on both halfs without any tools. Now you only have to tighten the custom-fit Völkl skins with the Skin Pin System on the "skis", extend the telescopic sticks and start hiking....

Like the "normal" Cashew, the Split Kit variation features completely new core dimensions. Furthermore, there is a specific hardwood veneer inside the board that is not only more eco-friendly than fiberglass, but also provides you with extra pop and power. The only difference to the basic model is the complete carbon lower weave that makes the board a lot lighter during the hike.

On the way down, the Pin-Tail Shape with Convex-Powder Base comes into play: The shorter contact length with elevated sidewalls makes the board extremely playful and offers maximum float (comparable to a 10 to 15 centimeter longer board)! For smooth riding as well as perfect edge hold, the sidecut has been perfectly adjusted to the rocker and flex of the board. But the Cashew is also a real contender on another challenging 'terrain': minimal amounts of resin, a topsheet featuring a hemp/canvas surface as well as a base mainly made of recycled materials strive towards a better environment!
