Compared to some other boards in the Borealis line-up, the Artefact looks relatively normal in terms of shape, stood next to the Koi or the Leviathan, you might even say it looks pretty basic. But if anything, this is the secret strength of the Artefact, the traditional shape gives you complete freedom across varied terrain. This is no fuss, no frills. The Artefact doesn’t employ the smoke and mirrors tactics to dazzle you, it lets the riding do the talking, and in our opinion, this is one eloquent deck.

This award-winning, all-terrain snowboard from Borealis might not look like your typical freeride hog, but rest assured the Artefact has the chops for some seriously technical descents. Just ask Freeride World Tour athlete, Clement Bochatay if you don’t believe us.

“This is no fuss, no frills”

Who Is The Borealis Artefact For?

Riders who love surfy turns in the deep snow, but want a board that will do for any day of the season, regardless whether it’s be puking or not. You love riding anywhere and everywhere and want one board to do it all, freestyle, freeride and everything in between. The stiffer flex and camber dominant profile mean it’ll handle best with an experienced rider who knows how to get the most out of it.
