K2 Shovel with Rescue Kit

K2 Shovel with Rescue Kit

Rating for this product: 5 December 24, 2011

Great shoveling shovel. Comes with the parts in shovel handle to build a sled with the K2 skis. So the holes that are on the tips and tails of factory freeride and Backside series skis work in conjunction with the parts that come in a a bag that is stuffed down the tube of the handle, there is a pull tab to get it out and has instructions on the bag. Obviously you want to build the sled at home a few times so you can built it up quick for an injury extraction if necessary. Any ski poles will work with the cross bracing that is need in sled construction. Snow Hoe option a held. Very sturdy! Blade is designed to be used as an anchor with some webbing.

Fleece long underwear, there isn't an Oakley bottom in the line up unfortunately and I have no idea why. If its really cold (negatives) and I'm not hiking during the day I'll wear a the thiner past seasons Oakley Bottom as well. Dressing for what your going to be doing in layers it the best thing you can do, and cotton doesn't count as a layer and should not be worn skiing in the winter.

Full Tilt Seth Morrison Pro Model Ski Boot - Men's

December 19, 2011

You would need to order shorter cables from the fulltilt site. You can't cut them. After the initial molding you won't lose much of the initial thickness. Remolding after the initial mold will make them roomier each time. The liner does hold up very well to "packing out". Even after a couple 100 days on my boots and they feel like 1st day.

When you say shorter boots do you mean smaller? Best thing to do is do a shell size. This boot comes with an #8 tongue you can upgrade to a #10 that comes in black. I don't know anything about the boots you have. Goto a store and try them on, at least get a shell size, the liners need to be molded to get the proper fit. Also these are narrower than most boots.

This is one of my favorite to date. Gore-Tex Pro Shell so light, breathable, water and windproof. Tested in the Chamonix Valley. Nice chest and hand pockets for cameras, radio, and phone. Right chest pocket has an access zipper to your inner layer so it works in conjunction with the modular fleece layer chest pocket for things you want to keep safe and warm. 2 way zipper to help with other inner access so you don't have to need to take you jacket off. Shirt will connect to pants to make a one piece. Bill has a wire in the visor to help shape it. Packable as well! Photo of Nate Wallace on Mallory in Chamonix.

New art for this year, look close on the frame at the Skull details. The strap is a knit and knit print, similar to the one from 2 seasons ago, much more durable than last years screen print. Strap has silicon on in side for no slipping on helmets, strap does fit helmet and head. Crowbar has been my favorite for years, fits in helmet well and has a nice face curve to fit you well. My favorite is the G30 lens to cover all light conditions, maybe a bit bright on sunny days, but the way you can see in the shadows in unparalleled. Bag matches artwork on goggle.

This years boot is brand Spanking new Art. Translucent shell of skulls and lets green liner shine through. Softer flex this year with an 8 vs a 10 on the previous Seth Pro Model. Liner is a bit thinner I found from the past boot as well. Over same flex pattern and performance. You can change flex by getting different tongues virtually on in a few seconds.

Sliding Pleasure

K2 ObSETHed Ski

Rating for this product: 5 July 19, 2011

Main difference from last seasons skis is the Graphics. The color shown above is the 179, 189 comes in a blue top sheet. Performance wise these are more for soft conditions but do still perform well on hardpack, but you may notice tip flutter while going straight on catwalks and groomers. My mounting point is boot center at +4. I have skied this ski in all conditions from Chamonix ice to Alaska powder and make it work in all conditions as my daily driver. As an extra you can get the K2 pre cut skins for these. They work well and are quick and easy to take on and off using the tip and tail holes.

Been using these while mountain skiing. Thus far for clipping into anchor points to rest or switch from crampon to ski mode. Sleek look and light weight so I don't notice them much other than having to put one on while suiting up the harness and take up little room in the pack. Compared to traditional nylon slings these are so thin you don't quite trust them at first. Nice to have the varying lengths for different situations.

This is my everyday lens. Best for the low light and shadow conditions. A bit bright for sunny conditions, but better than persimmon or high intensity yellow on those sunny days. Doesn't bother me much since while skiing the light is alway changing, time of day and skiing in the trees. This lens tint came from golf, so it really brings out the grays that are hard to see in flat light with other lenses. Good deal right now!

Got these as my hard pack and variable conditions for my current Chamonix trip. The rocker is fine on the steep firm conditions. To me these skis are not that heavy with the metal layer in them. Nice to have the precut skin option. Not a big fan of flat square tails since I have been used to twin tips for so many years, so a bit to get used to on the firm steeps. Overall a great daily driver, more for firm snow in my world.

Black Diamond Cobra Ice Tool

Rating for this product: 5 February 11, 2011

Had a chance to try these last year on a training day on ice and was hooked from the first swing and ended up getting them just recently. Weight is always and issue, in the pack but you like some for setting the tool, which these still have that feel. By no means am I an expert or pro but like to use high end equipment and these are as good as it gets. Using these mostly for mountaineering so the curve is not the best for plunging into snow, crabbing works well while ascending. I remove the hand clips yet carry them with me for times Ice will be encountered. Shaft is slippery so I added some skateboard grip tape on for grip after seeing a friend use it, good idea! Lightness means less fatigue!

Safety First!

Black Diamond AvaLung II

Black Diamond AvaLung II

Rating for this product: 5 February 2, 2011

I have been using the Avalung for the past 6 years. Its a great tool to have for backcountry and even inbounds skiing. They make a "fog horn" noise when breathing through it. No need to be alarmed thats normal. The main thing is that you should have it in your mouth while skiing, this may seem awkward at times, but after some use it becomes a normal feeling. A must have for the backcountry enthusiast.

I bought this beacon due to the range and multi search functions. Does well on battery life. There are alot of gadgets with in the system that I never use, but could be useful one day. Strap system is ok but could be better as in it slips and you have to re adjust from time to time. Whats really nice is the option to change change time you beacon is searching. So if you were searching then got buried yourself, it reverts back to send signal after it stops moving for the preset time or your set time. Multi search function is very cool. I find you really follow the flux lines in on a search where others bring you in on a straighter line. This is not a negative, its just something you may notice when searching for the first time.

K2 Hellbent Alpine Ski

K2 Hellbent Alpine Ski

Rating for this product: 5 January 31, 2011

This ski has changed a bit as far as width and length. The length is more true to actual size compared to past versions. Extra width (4mm from past versions) nice for the powder days. Still same flex as past versions. Little to no camber and rocker has stayed the same. If you have skied past versions you may notice the shorter length in the same size. This is a deep powder day ski for when you want the widest ski you own, besides a powder jib stick. I mount mine boot center at +6 on the 189. These also work with the k2 pre cut skin system. Fun ski, a bit soft when hard pack, but some don't mind it Get a set for your quiver.

Full Tilt Seth Morrison Pro Model Ski Boot - Men's

January 17, 2011

These boots are stiff, but can be made stiffer by riveting the cuff to the lower shell, if you really need that. The ski question is a bit odd, Souns like you want a narrow waisted ski for those firm days, maybe something from the race line up.

A bit Wider!

K2 Hellbent Alpine Ski

K2 Hellbent Alpine Ski

Rating for this product: 5 January 13, 2011

Fun ski in powder for sure. Same characteristics as the previous models but 4mm wider under foot and measure true to size. Past versions were 5cms longer than stated. I notice the length being shorter, not a bad thing. I mount boot center at +6. These skis are pretty soft in the tail so you need more tail regardless of if you have never mounted forward. Fun yet concealed death and destruction graphics, you still could scare some old folks on the lift. Designed to land switch in pow. I use this on deep powder days when you want the fattest thing you own.

K2 ObSETHed Alpine Ski

January 6, 2011

Have you ever skied a ski in a 189? I'm your size and use 189's, but you may want the 179 since you ski a size close to it. The Rocker does give the illusion of skiing shorter, but the tail rocker is not so much on this ski, a hellbent has way more tail rocker and thats when you really notice that shorter skiing feel. The 179 is the most popular size, if your skiing deep snow and open terrain get the 189, if you ski more technical terrain get the 179.

Rating for this product: 5 December 19, 2010

Skied my Shanetoons today and have to say they were a nice treat in the deep pow. Found myself surfing the surface, but yet still able to sink in and get face shots when speed was dumped. Quote of the day from a friend on his Blue Pontoons was "I can stomp any landing on these", they are a game changer in the pow.

Full Tilt Seth Morrison Pro Model Ski Boot - Men's

December 15, 2010

The #10 tongue obviously is the stiffest, but the boot flexes much differently than the 4 buckle style boots. The cuff has more forward movement than the 4 buckle boots. The boots are pretty much all the same, the tongue flex and liners are the main differences through out the line. So its hard to compare it to other brands stiffness. Find a shop that has them and try them on.

Try The 28.5 The moldable liner helps give a perfect fit. I would recommend getting shell sized in them before you buy with the past boot sizing issues.

I have one of the linner ovens from the Raichle days. These work best since it's like a convection oven. I have seen people use a regular home oven and done it once myself, you have to be carful not to melt the liner by touching it on oven parts like the rack or heating elements. 10 minutes at 250.
