Take a virtual tour of the Prior factory and see what goes into making some of the best boards available.

Chris Prior has been making snowboards since 1990 and started producing splitboards in 2000. At that time there were only a handful of manufacturers producing splitboards and today their line is one of the deepest on the market. Currently Prior offers 8 (yes 8!) different splitboard shapes available in 4 different profiles. For BTO (build to order) options, users can opt for their XTC Carbon construction and choose between a number of topsheet and base combinations. All boards now come with a 3 year warranty as well.

Vimeo users don’t forget to follow Prior too! On Instagram they can be found @priorsnow.
