INSPIRED BY NATURE



BORN IN THE FRENCH ALPS THE PEOPLE BEHIND BOREALIS

Borealis Snowboards is a French snowboard brand created in 2013 by Ben Hall, a French-English snowboarder who grew up between Geneva in Switzerland and the French Mont-Blanc Region. Through our 35+ years experience riding mountains combined with feedback from some of the best riders out there, Borealis is proud to offer you gear that is both high-performance but also incredibly comfortable to ride. Each model has its own identity and style, created to match your riding experience and technique. Our unique hand-made equipement is built with premium renewables-based materials such as natural bamboo, Zero-VOC resin, sustainable wood and other alternative solutions. At Borealis, we put a special emphasis on bamboo; it is light, 100% renewable and brings great properties to your ride


SUSTAINABLY-MADE HIGH-PERFORMANCE PREMIUM QUALITY SINCE 2013


SUSTAINABILITY AT HEART

ACTIVELY REDUCING OUR FOOTPRINT SINCE 2013 Our boards combine state-of-the-art materials and technologies with sustainable solutions to offer high-end equipment you can trust, with a lower impact on the environment. Whilst some "less clean" materials such as PU, carbon or base material are still necessary, we look for natural alternatives wherever we can, to offer boards made with the lowest carbon footprint possible. Since 2013, we have tested, ridden and incorporated these materials in our boards to offer you a unique, more sustainable alternative into the eco-transition. Our planet needs it and so do we. After all, we are nature.

THINGS WE DO TO REDUCE OUR FOOTPRINT Our boards are shaped and designed in our Avignon HQ in France. We are connected to a green energy provider making our board development process carbon neutral.

Since 2013, we have incorporated as many alternative less poluting materials as possible in our boards; from wood grown in responsibly-managed forests to biodegrable flurorine-free

All our boards are shipped from the fatory by oeean freight. Maritime shipping is the means of transportation with the smallest carbon footprint.

Our factory uses only VOC-free resins, inks and lacquer, has waste water management, scraps recycling, green energy processes.

The exceptional quality and durability of our production is testimony to our passion and will to offer superior gear. We offer an industry-leading 4 year guarantee on all boards, splits & skis.

We donate discarded boards to Nok Boards, an upcycling company based in Grenoble which uses them to produce longboards. A cool way to give a second life to broken gear. Since 2020, Borealis has been a member of the EOCA (European Outdoor Conservation Association). It creates and manages conservation throughout the world financed by its members’ fees.



BAMBOO ORGANIC FEEL AND POP ENHANCER We’ve incorporated bamboo in our boards since the launch of Borealis back in 2013. Bamboo is a highly-renewable grass of which some types can grow up to one metre in 24h. Alongside its sustainability, bamboo also brings great properties to snowboards. Used as veneer for topsheets, it enhances the board’s pop and offers a very organic feel when riding. The result is really nice to ride: smooth but snappy at the same time. We also use bamboo beams in our UL Forest Core where the inserts are drilled as it’s a very hard, dense material which meets that need perfectly.



MEMBER OF THE EOCA GIVING BACK TO NATURE

The European Outdoor Conservation Association (EOCA) is a charity organisation, set up in 2006 by the European Outdoor Group (EOG) to enable companies from the outdoor sector to work collectively together. EOCA, with its members, supports and funds a growing number of much needed grassroots conservation, protection and regeneration projects around the world, protecting the wild places and wildlife everyone cares so much about. Funded by membership and other fundraising activities, with over 150 members, EOCA is unique as it provides companies from an entire industry the opportunity to work together, making a difference to threatened wild places, species and habitats, multiplying the effect and positive impact on nature. Funded projects tackle the loss of biodiversity and mitigate against climate change, whilst also having a link to the outdoor enthusiast, being beneficial to local communities and leave a lasting, positive legacy. EOCA has now funded 184 projects in over 65 countries around the world, investing over €5 million in conservation.


TECHNOLOGY PERFORMANCE UNLOCKED Our strength lies in the highest quality of our boards. We strongly believe that the durability, resilience and outstanding finish of our gear is above that of any other out there. With its 30+ years of board designing and building experience, our partner factory GP87 led by Californian shaping guru Dan Agundes has built itself a reputation for making the most high-end snowboards on the planet, in terms of performance and durability.



EDGE SYNERGY THE ULTIMATE CARVING TECHNOLOGY

All our boards are built using Edge Synergy technology. The combination of a progressive sidecut, our mellow Sidewaves and reverse radius contact points make our boards the most advanced carving devices out there.

PROGRESSIVE SIDECUT This type of sidecut is designed to allow you to make small turns easily at lower speeds and to stay super stable and agressive when bombing down at mach 2 in bigger turns. Between the contact points and the inserts, the radius is smaller, more playful. When gaining speed and turning, the central part of the board is more called upon. The wider radius then takes over, adding support, stability and increased edge hold when you need it the most.

PROGRESSIVE SIDECUT

SIDEWAVES & REVERSE RADIUS Mellow disruptions are added to the sidecut in front and behind of both binding areas. We call them Sidewaves. They add grip and edge hold to the board on very hard or icy terrain. Next time you see a dodgy-looking ice patch, you'll know your board's Sidewaves will slice through it and maintain you on course with confidence and comfort. Many Borealis snowboards come with a reverse radius at the contact points. The transition from one radius to a reversed one right at the contact points makes them incredibly efficient at holding an edge. Carving at high speed takes on a new meaning, and you'll up your game faster than it takes to say it.

SIDEWAVES REVERSE RADIUS



WOOD CORES TAILOR-MADE TO PERFECTION

We use sustainably-sourced wood to make our wood cores. We offer three different kinds of cores designed for to fit the specs of specific snowboard models. That wood comes from responsibly-managed forests.


WOODLAND CORE S U S T A I N A B L E

W O O D

The new woodland core is made of 100% poplar wood. It’s light, durable and brings all the pop and dynamism you can expect from a premium snowboard.

UL FOREST CORE S U S T A I N A B L E

W O O D

The UltraLight Forest Core is made of poplar, bamboo and paulownia. As the name suggests, it is light but also highly resistant and snappy. Bamboo is dense; it adds rebound and response. Paulownia brings lightness and poplar offers stength and durability.

ELEMENT CORE

SUSTAINABLE WOOD & BASALT BEAMS

The Element Core is a beefed-up version of the UL Forest Core. As in the latter, bamboo adds rebound and response. Paulownia brings lightness and poplar offers stength and durability. In the Element Core, laminated biax fibre has been added to the core, bringing extra pop and strength to the board.


LIQUID SIDEWALLS ULTRA-SMOOTH RIDING TECHNOLOGY

We use liquid polyurethane to make our Liquid Sidewalls. They play different roles in the layup of a snowboard. They act as a barrier if any obstacle was to hit your board (branches, rocks, skis in queues, etc). They follow your board’s flex, moving along as it does very fluidly. Finally, they act as a very efficient dampening agent, cancelling unwanted chatter and absorbing impacts. The result is an ultra-smooth ride, allowing you to ride at faster speeds for longer periods of time with less fatigue. What else?

Liquid Sidewalls are poured directly into the wood core

TWIN TIP SNOWBOARDS | HORIZON

HORIZON

Freestyle Dream Machine 152-155-158 Shape: True Twin Profile: FS Hybrid Camber Program: Freestyle/All-Mountain Shape-wise, it's a true twin, with zero setback. The blunt tips are great for ollies, butters and landings in the park or the backcountry. The medium sidecut radius with added mellow Sidewaves brings great grip without slowing you down when carving. The Horizon is set on our FS Hybrid Camber profile, which is full positive camber the whole length of the effective edge (contact points to contact points) with a short and mellow rocker zone right in the middle of that camber. This will help pivot the board more easily in powder without losing the benefit of a full camber profile. On the construction side, the Horizon comes with our tested and approved UL Forest Core (poplar/paulownia/bamboo) boosted with Carbon Power Beams and triax fibreglass. This makes the board super light, poppy as hell, responsive and aggressive. We use a structured DS4001 sintered base which is super durable, easy to wax and faster than your friends' boards.

POP The FS (Freestyle) Hybrid Camber was specifically created for freestylers looking for more versatility. Watch out for its explosive pop.

TWIN TIP SNOWBOARDS | ALPINE PRO

ALPINE PRO

Clément Bochatay Pro Model 162 Shape: Set-Back Directional Twin Profile: Camrock Program: All-Mountain/Freeride FWT veteran Clément Bochatay is mainly a big mountain rider but he also enjoys end of season shred, hitting side hits, speeding and carving on piste and sending it big in the backcountry. This is why he wanted a board capable of fulfilling his big mountain rider's needs (stable at high speed in powder, secure edge-hold in very steep and icy conditions, capable of landing cliffs, etc) whilst being versatile enough to enjoy everyday cruising on piste and sending tricks when he felt like it. We believe we achieved that with the Alpine Pro. The tapered directional twin shape is great for freeriding and keep enough of twin spirit to allow switch riding and landings. The precise and aggressive flex, hybrid sidecut, tweaked contact points and Sidewaves keeps Clément safe in high Alpine conditions.

KOI

Tribute To Hokkaido’s Powder 152-156-160 Shape: Directional Profile: Powder Camber Program: Freeride | Carving | Piste With its beautiful natural bamboo topsheet and high-performance directional shape, it is both a timeless and state of the art all-mountain powder board. This board is one of our earlier bit most successful models. It was launched back in 2015.

It is the most balanced directional powder shape of the line.

POWDER SHAPES | MARAUDER

MARAUDER

Volume-Shifted Powder Shark 156 Shape: Directional Profile: Powder Camber Program: Freeride | Carving | Piste Built for powder slashing and piste carving, the Marauder is an extremely fun volume-shifted board ready to turn into fun anything you throw at it. On piste it transitions from edge to edge easily and offers solid carving abilities for its reduced size. The fast structured DS4000 sintered base is of superior quality and will bring you to mind-blowing speed faster than it takes to say it. In powder, the Marauder is marvellous. As soon as you enter the stuff, the widened tip activates its hovering abilities and keeps you gliding effortlessly. The tapered shape and fish-shaped tail allow the back of the board to lightly sink in powder, giving you total control of your turns whilst helping create a lever-effect keeping the tip afloat. Fly from one pillow to another with fluidity, jump off ledges with confidence, send big backside airs in the backcountry. On this board, everything is possible and progression is assured.

DRAKKAR

Powder & Carving Excellence 158 Shape: Directional Profile: Powder Camber Program: Freeride | Carving | Piste The Drakkar was one of our earliest models, initially launched in 2014, it was fully redesigned last year. The tip and rocker have been redrawn, making the Drakkar more fluid and even better in powder. We tweaked the sidecut radius and contact points to reveal the board's full carving potential. The tail keeps its distinctive wing-suit shape. The tapered shape allows for deep-powder riding and slashing whilst the new sidecut and construction provide riders with an aggressive board capable of taking them on the most extreme runs, whatever the conditions may be. Construction-wise, the Drakkar has been seriously upgraded. The Electra graphite base is the fastest option there is on the market, race-grade. Our new Liquid-Sidewalls cancel any unwanted chatter and make every run ultra smooth. The UL Forest Core, triax glass and Carbon Power Strips make sure the Drakkar stays stable and incisive even at the highest speeds. This is our newest gem, born from ten years of Drakkar riding and development. A masterpiece eager to up your game, and push your limits further forward.

SPLITBOARDING | ALPINE PRO SPLIT

ALPINE PRO

Versatile Big Mountain Tool 162 Shape: Set-Back Directional Twin Profile: Camrock Program: All-Mountain/Freeride FWT veteran Clément Bochatay is mainly a big mountain rider but he also enjoys end of season shred, hitting side hits, speeding and carving on piste and sending it big in the backcountry. This is why he wanted a board capable of fulfilling his big mountain rider's needs (stable at high speed in powder, secure edge-hold in very steep and icy conditions, capable of landing cliffs, etc) whilst being versatile-enough to enjoy everyday cruising on piste and sending tricks when he felt like it. We believe we achieved that with the Alpine Pro Split. The tapered directional twin shape is great for freeriding and keep enough of twin spirit to allow switch riding and landings. The precise and aggressive flex, hybrid sidecut, tweaked contact points and Sidewaves keep Clément safe in high Alpine conditions. The Alpine Pro Split is a technical big-mountain/freeride splitboard but unlike similar models from other manufacturers, it stays versatile enough to enjoy the mountain in all of its aspects.
