Evidence for the backward production of the B(1235) meson in the final state π+p→pfπ+ω at 11.46 GeV/c with σ(|u′|<1.5 GeV2)=1.28±0.26 μb is presented. When nucleon exchange is assumed to dominate, estimates for the SU(3) mixing parameter FD as well as the B coupling to the nucleon-antinucleon are given. Some indication of a narrow enhancement at M(π+ω)≃1.03 GeV/c2 is seen, but confirmation of this as a resonant state is not yet possible.
