Nobile NHP Carbon Split 2026
Splitboard – airline ready Freeride / Freestyle Carbon Reinforced Medium–Stiff Flex High Pop
The NHP Carbon Split 2026 brings the lively, precise feel of a carbon layup to Nobile’s legendary travel-ready split construction. It rides fast and locked-in like a full-size NHP Carbon, yet packs down in seconds for hassle-free flights and compact storage.
Highlights
- W-Connection split system – rigid, secure joint; assemble/disassemble in under a minute.
- Carbon-reinforced layup – crisp feedback, explosive pop and reduced weight.
- Asymmetric outline – extra heelside grip where you load the edge.
- Progressive rocker – smooth in chop with forgiving touchdowns.
- Double concave + tip channels – early planing and confident rail hold when powered.
Who it’s for
- Intermediate–advanced riders who travel and want carbon precision.
- Freeride/freestyle kiters seeking pop, upwind drive and comfort in chop.
- Riders who love the NHP feel and need airline-friendly packing.
Technology & Construction
- W-Connection Split: interlocking tongue-and-groove with internal locking hardware for torsional stiffness when assembled.
- Lightweight wood core: paulownia/ash blend tuned for rebound and durability.
- Carbon stringers & triax glass: increase longitudinal snap and reduce weight while keeping the ride damp.
- ABS sidewalls: impact-resistant edges for long-term durability.
- Hydrodynamic base: double concave center with multi-channels for grip and easy landings.
- Stainless hardware kit included for the split connection.
Travel advantage: Packed length is roughly half the board size, so most riders use standard checked luggage with no oversize fees. Perfect for multi-stop trips.
