For Freeride Aficionados

Our most popular splitboard ever, for a reason. A timeless freeride shape that has won the Backcountry Magazine Editors" Choice awards 4 times.

A long-time favorite of discerning free riders, the Storm slays inbounds and out. It excels in soft snow due to its stance set back, stubby tail, and missile-shaped nose. For all its prowess in untracked snow, the Storm remains a force of nature in variable snow conditions and transitional terrain.

All splitboards come with Spark R&D Fixe Clips, and Tip & Tail Clips mounted on the board.

    "This is a classic case of “built by the people and for the people,” and the result is expertly crafted and scrupulously tested boards that show a painstaking attention to detail. The Storm is one of Venture’s most popular designs and features a freeride-focused build for variable mountain conditions and tackling terrain from steep couloirs to tight glades." - Switchback Travel

    Construction Features

    Seamless Split Construction

    Simply put, we build our splitboards to ride like solid boards. We have a zero-tolerance policy when it comes to slop between the inner edges and imprecise hardware placement.

    Flat Camber

    Traditional camber is catchy and restrictive. The entire edge is either fully locked in or not. On or off, nothing in between. Catching your downhill edge and eating shit on a camber board gets old fast. Full rocker solves that problem, but it's too loose and squirrely. It doesn't hold an edge or carve a turn very well. Flat camber doesn't sound fancy, but with freeride flex and mellow rocker at the tips it doesn't need to. When you put one of our boards on edge it engages gradually. The more you turn, the more the edge bites into the snow. Surfy freedom of rocker, edge grip of camber.

    Matched Flex & Sidecut

    How a board rides comes down to how flex and sidecut work together. Get the combination right and edge pressure distributes evenly on the snow, which means better stability and edge grip. We tune both for each shape and size: a deeper sidecut and softer flex for quick turns, a shallower sidecut and stiffer flex for stability at speed. The core profile on every board is shaped to match its specific sidecut. We do it using an in-house process that we can't talk about. Sorry. It's the reason our boards feel different from everyone else's.

    Poplar & Maple Core

    Maple stringers under the inserts and along the sidewalls for maximum durability where your feet meet the board and the board meets the snow. Poplar everywhere else to keep the weight down. All laminates run the full length of the core. No finger-joints, no jigsaw puzzle with grains running across the board creating weakness.

    Triaxial Carbon Fiber

    100% pure carbon fiber instead of glass. We don't just throw in a pinch for marketing value. Lighter, and rides pretty much the same as its glass cousin.

    Super Sap® Bio Epoxy

    Super Sap® bio-based epoxy from Entropy Resins. Same strength and durability as conventional epoxy, lower environmental footprint.

    Bomber Sintered Base

    Sintered P-tex absorbs wax better and runs faster than extruded bases. More durable too. We use it on every board.

    Inlaid Base Graphics

    AKA Die-Cut. Boards with inlaid base graphics have an advantage over printed graphics because with inlay, the base material bonds directly with the other components rather than with a weak layer of ink. By swapping the spare parts from one base with those from another, we are able to use materials more efficiently and eliminate waste.

    Sintered P-tex Sidewalls

    P-tex doesn't crack like ABS, and it's cleaner to produce: less toxic chemicals, lower energy, lower emissions. That's why we use it. Our sidewalls are epoxied to maple and bonded to the core before milling, not hot-glued into the layup at the last minute. Sandwich construction with P-tex sidewalls means when you slam a rock on your heel edge, the damage is almost always repairable.

    Textured Topsheets

    Ultra-durable, lightweight, and sheds snow. Dye sublimation printed with water based ink.

    Full Wrap Steel Edges

    High carbon Rockwell 48 carbon steel edges are extremely durable and stay true when others blow out.

    Stainless Steel Inserts

    Industry standard 4x2 pattern fits all quality bindings.
