Now the only drawback to backcountry
snowboarding has been eliminated. Long traverses are pure misery
on snowshoes
and to add to all that suffering the backcountry boarder has
to carry the beloved descent vehicle. The Voile
split decision is the answer to every serious backcountry
snowboarder. Assembled and disassembled in the same time a skier
can prepare for the uptrack or descent and you still get to rip
past them. But now you can rip past the skiers on the uptrack
as well. A simple binding mount is slid from its freeheel uphill
mode and into the completely adjustable downhill stance. Latches
complete the set-up to create a perfectly laterally rigid powder
board. We just love the concept of the split
kit where you have to saw your snowboard vertically in
half to build your own custom split decision board.
Obviously if the backcountry boarding that you do is mostly straight
up and straight down then you have no need for a split decision
but for a pair of bombproof snowshoes
that will get you your first tracks. Critical features include
compact, lightweight, easy on/off in cold and snowy conditions.
Check out the DaKine and MSR for excellent value for money.
Either way: split decision or
snowshoes
make sure that your no hassle 3
stage flicklock poles are in your backpack. Speaking of which
backcountry snowboarding is simply no fun without a backpack
that works perfectly for carrying a board. Walking a steep ridgeline
with a snowboard flying way above your backpack pushing you from
side to side with every gust is never going to get better. That
is why you only see 15 year old snowboarders without a DaKine
backpack on their backs.

poles and backpack
