The wood core, variable thickness, and top sheet material are all optimized for splitboard use, and have been designed to bring out the best characteristics of the solid board version.
The phantom Hercules hooks adopted from the 19-20 season have a lightweight simple structure, are highly reliable, and allow for easy mode switching in harsh conditions. Aluminum protectors have been added to the nose and tail to minimize damage to the board during touring. The Tip-Lock is also fixed with a through-screw, making it easy to replace in the unlikely event of failure or damage. Carried from the 22-23 season, a reinforcing fiberglass sheet has been added around the inserts to protect the wood core from binding impact.
