Abstract
The present disclosure relates to splitboard joining devices. The splitboard joining devices can quickly and easily join the skis of a splitboard to create a snowboard. The devices can clamp the splitboard skis in a direction perpendicular and parallel to the seam of the splitboard and normal to the top surface of the splitboard skis. This can prevent the splitboard skis from moving up and down relative to each other, moving apart in a direction perpendicular to the seam, sliding relative to each other in a direction parallel to the seam, and rotating about the seam. The splitboard joining devices can constrain rotation and movement about the seam of the splitboard to make a splitboard ride like a normal snowboard and enhance a rider's experience on a splitboard.
