If you do a lot of skiing/snowboarding, you should wear a helmet. If you do a lot of hiking to get to where you'll ride, this helmet will shave weight off your kit and give you more energy for more runs. There's nothing worse then a heavy clunky helmet on the ride down- You can hardly tell this thing is on your head!

Wear a helmet, and tell your buddies to wear helmets too, so we can all have fun and shred powder safely in the future!

You've got one life to live, so protect it with a Smith Maze helmet!

This puffy traps your body heat like a greenhouse. Blazing hot! Whip it out of your pack at chilly times and feel the warmth instantly. Nothing stores body heat better then lofty down, and when your stationary, every bit of warmth helps.

I got this jacket mainly for winter splitboard camping. So i love the stash/pillow pocket- 2 birds with 1 stone! I also live in a super old house in which we rarely run the heating, but really there is no need for heating if you own a Maestro Down! This thing provides insane warmth... Get one today and cut your heating bills in half- no joke!

Dual height climbing heels are essential for me. I have been using the G3 tele dual heel's on my split in the past, stoked to see Voile see the need for this. It is insane how much steeper you can go with the high bars.

Folks with regular heels will get angry at the steep skin tracks you will set... Don't settle for one height, when you can have two!

I love this chair. I have had mine for about 5 years now, and it is still in great condition. Really well built with strong construction. Theres nothing like setting up camp and crashing into this thing after a long hike. I used to use this chair with the older style therm-a-rest pads, but when I upgraded to the new NeoAir pad it brought the comfort to the next level!

The flexlock Petzl Vasak's are the best fitting crampons i have found for snowboard boots. I've had problems with both blackdiamond contact strap/neve strap crampons as they don't come up the back of the boot high enough. Making for risky situations when your crampon slips off mid climb! Not an option! The strap system on these petzl's accommodate snowboard boots much better in my opinion. The back part of the strap comes up the boot about 4.5" which makes for a really solid hold.

These things strap down so snug and tight- Snowboarders in need of crampons, look no further!

The Smith I/O is greatest goggle on earth. Incredible how easy it is to change a lens on the go. You can switch out a lens on the chair lift still wearing gloves! They do great in foggy conditions. Fits proper with all helmets. The peripheral vision is insane, no other goggle compares.

Hands down the best choice out there!

I used this jacket last season and i thought it was great. Kept me warm and dry every time out. Waterproof for stormy days and breathable for long hikes. Cant get much better for the price.....

The Avalung is a great invention. You can install this model into pretty much any backpack that has a hydration sleeve type of pocket. All it takes is a little macgyvering and some thought. I got some extra tubing at homedepot similar to what the avalung is made out of to make the exhaust come out at the bottom right of the pack. Works great, though i don't intend to use it at all costs! Its best to not get in avalanches.

I think voile is the only company making skins for splitboards. That in mind i have nothing else to compare them to... Either way these things are great. Seems like my skier buddies always get mad when i set the skin track, because these things can go so steep! Love this product

I had a bad injury to both my legs this past winter. Being a skateboarder i have been using skate shoes during my physical therapy process. I picked up a pair of these and was blown away by the support, grip and overall comfort i get compared to using my skate shoes. They are great on any surface for hiking weather it be sloppy mud for craggy boulders. Incredibly waterproof. With sketchy stability in the knees, i needed all the support i could get and these did the job! GREAT SHOES!

I am stoked on this backpack, fits every thing i ever need to carry and some! If you like to go on lonnng tours when you know you need extra food water and clothing, this is the pack for you. I have gone on overnighters with this pack, stowing all my camping gear and riding gear comfortably. Many great attachment points for random gear, and it holds a snowboard/skis so well. My average load is 20lbs in this pack and it carries it with ease, cinching down nice and snug. Even with heavier loads it seems to do great, and when you have no gear to haul the pack compresses down to the size of any resort size pack... GREAT BACKPACK!!!

This helmet is amazing. So light, yet super protective. I have never been a fan of wearing helmets for some reason, but this winter i decided enough is enough. I was trippin' when i wore this helmet for the first time because i could not feel it on my head. It fits so well with smith goggles, and any other brand for that matter. In conjunction with smith gogg's there is virtually no goggle gap! such a snug fit that doesn't shake around, like most other helmet setups i have tried. I am so pleased with this helmet, i will always wear one from here on out! ....Its not "if" you're gonna crash but "when". So gear up and protect your dome!

Help save the planet- buy the "evolve" helmet...They're made with 96% recycled materials!!!

If you're a lightweight like me, you'll feel safe when belaying a person twice your size thanks to the teeth... Much more grab then the standard Atc. Flip it around and you can have a smooth repel down!

Sterling ropes are great. We have been using ours for about 5 years. I dont get out to often, go about 20 times a summer. But it is still in great condition after all these years. Next rope i get will be a sterling

This is the tent that got my bro and i into backpacking. Many stormy nights, and many starry nights. We have had this tent for 6 years now and it still holds up to any kind of trip! It doesn't see as much use as it used to, but this is the tent that started it all for me! Now serves as a great backup/extra tent.

Unreal value for the price.

These things are amazingly comfortable after a long day hiking... Nothing like a backcountry nap high in the mountains in one of these hammocks. Packs down to nothing and disappears into your pack. Makes for a good nights sleep on a warm summer nights. Save the tree's and hang it with some climbing slings and biners.

These puppies do it all. Wade rivers with ease while you search for big trout. Hike for miles with no blisters. Slide into your pack or clipped on the outside for an extra camp shoe. Great for around the campfire. you name it, great sandals. And they're good for cliff jumps too!!

Cant say enough about trekking poles and their importance to a proper hike... Trekking poles are leg savers!
-I prefer these poles over the BD Expedition poles, and any other company's poles for a few reasons. They have a better grip for traversing slopes. They are 3 ounces lighter! And the bottom piece of the pole stays locked in place, the expeditions have a bit of play when on the pack. If you ever plan to get a BD Whippet pole, you can use the 2 lower sections from this pole to make a 3-Piece whippet pole... All you have to do is cut the top section of the whippet down about 4 to 5 inches, cut notch and install flicklock, and slide these baby's in! These poles are sick!

I like this probe for its ease of use, one solid tug and its assembled and locked in place. It is lightweight, and very compact compared to a lot of probes i have seen... Have had my tourlight for about 3 years now and the cable is still in great condition

Love these bindings. Killer heelstraps and highbacks, but i prefer cap straps over the standard toe straps. Can easily be switched though... Great design thats built to hold up to heavy abuse.

I am a balaclava connoisseur... Love to use them in the winter and they are always in my summer pack for cold nights under the stars. This is the best one i have come across. The fabric is so nice, and it fits many head shapes and sizes. Nice long neck blocks cold wind and snow. Great face protection...

The Aurora Bivy has treated me well, keeps me super dry and adds a bit of warmth when sleeping in the snow. I have never had issues with condensation, though i have never slept in it with the storm flap fully closed... Super lightweight, great for those extra long tours when a tent is out of the question.

I have taken many harsh digger's on to my back, while wearing this pack with lots of camera gear inside. It has always held up strong and our camera gear comes out intact! Killer pockets and space for essential backcountry equipment, food, and whatever else the day calls for... The back access and camera block are the greatest things to happen to snowboard/ski photography! No more fussing with pack straps and digging for you're camera. This setup is legit! Great pack to switch between buddies on runs to make sure everybody gets a photo experience to remember. Pictures are worth 1000 words, or more!

This is an awesome jacket for any type of snow-sport. I used mine all last winter and it is still in tip top shape! It fits great, its very water proof, and it is nice and warm. The under arm zip's are ideal for venting while hiking and high perspiration activities. Lots of good storage in the pockets, and i LOVE the goggle pocket on the inside... A must have if you hike often!

This is an epic board, one of the best in the rossi line up in my opinion. After riding with magne-traction i don't think i'll be going back to a straight edge. The Magne edge give you incredible hold on ice and hard packed snow, and when you're riding back-country you'll be happy to have it when you hit some variable snow. This would be the 1 board i would choose for everything. Park, powder, pipe, groomers, ect.

Our family dog is an Italian mastiff, a very heavy boy... We were a bit worried what we would do with him when we got into floating rivers. He was never a water dog, but when we got this life-vest for him he found a new love! Once he realized that he could not sink, he was in the water all day! He is now a great swimmer! When he gets bucked off the boat in the rapid's i have the peace of mind knowing that he will always float!! Great product...

This board is perfect for the beginner or intermediate rider. It is mostly reverse camber with a touch of traditional camber in between the binding inserts. This makes for a super easy ride in many ways. It's contact points are in between you're feet and it pivots on a dime. The reverse camber makes it float effortlessly in powder and chop snow. For my riding style, I think this board is much too flexy and has too much reverse camber to make it a "hard charging" big mountain board... But for some one who like's to "play" in the powder and park it is perfect.

These poles great for split-boarding. They are light weight yet strong, and super collapsable which is key if you are carrying them on you're back. I love to use them in the summer for heavy backpacking as well. Mine have held up great for the last 3 seasons...

I got the momentum package when i started climbing 3 years ago. The harness is a solid design, and i see no reason to upgrade even after 3 summers of mild use. The new version here is even better then the one i have. Perfect for someone who wants to get into climbing, highly recommend it!
