Snowboards comparison — 2026-2027 season
How they compare
Both target freeride terrain, while the United Shapes Deep Reach Split leans more backcountry/powder/splitboard, while the United Shapes Horizon leans more freestyle/all mountain. They share a directional shape — different nose and tail; built to ride forward with better float in powder and drive on groomers. The United Shapes Deep Reach Split is slightly stiffer, though both sit in the stiff range. At $699 vs $949 MSRP, the United Shapes Horizon is the more budget-friendly option.
