Australia’s Go-To Splitboard Store: Why Twelve Leads in Backcountry Gear

If you’re looking to step off the groomers and into the backcountry, your gear matters—and so does where you get it. At Twelve Board Store, we’re not just a snowboard shop; we’re Australia’s splitboard and backcountry specialists, with the brands, the knowledge, and the real-world experience to get you out there safely and stoked.

Why Splitboarding is Different

Splitboarding isn’t just snowboarding with a different board. It’s about:

  • It's about the journey, gotta get up to get down

  • The right layering to handle sweat on the climb and cold on the descent.

  • Avalanche safety gear that you know how to use.

  • Boards that perform in deep snow and variable conditions without letting you down.

  • Doing our part to make sure you are prepared

It’s not the place to cut corners—or get sold the wrong setup by a shop that doesn’t understand the gear or how to use it.

Why Twelve Board Store is Australia’s Backcountry Hub
