It feels like Ortovox decided at some point in the last few years that they’re going to push the beacon game and the Zoom+ is part of this transceiver transcendence. The Ortovox Zoom+ is a simple, sleek transmitter and receiver, combining their beacon tech with about the simplest interface you can find. It makes it […]
Vuarnet’s an OG legend for long combining cutting edge tech with timeless style and durability, which explains why they’d roll out these killer Racing 1929 180° Sunglasses. Rock the retro style like a boss, while the photochromic lens magically adapts to light like a chameleon wrapping your orbs. And the Racing 1929 hangs on to […]
Athleisure is so 2016; the thing today is workleisure, and nobody understands how to do work with steeze like Vans with their Drill Chore Coat. Let’s start by clarifying something: this isn’t a coat. Or more, it’s not JUST a coat. It’s thin enough you could wear it as a shirt in the winter. Or […]
Let’s get one thing clear off the top: Kemper’s Rampage Splitboard may look like those classic boards from back before engineering was a part of the sport but they’ve engineered the hell out of these planks.

The Burton Family Tree Hometown Hero Splitboard fires on all sides while wrapping you up in all those good warm feelings when you need them. Just like a good family. Tree. I’ve ridden a few Burtons but the Family Tree Hometown Hero is the first split I’ve tried, and it delivers the all-around, dialed-right-out-of-the-box performance […]
DC Shoes must have read one of my reviews about how I destroy boots when they developed their Shuksan boot. No, probably not. But the DC Shuksan Boot is such a perfect freestyle resort boot while still holding onto support and responsiveness that I couldn’t imagine a better single boot for splitboarding and resort ripping, […]
Bogs must have been invented with that old saying that in the Tetons that we have 3 seasons — summer, winter, and mud season. Because having gotten my first pair of Bogs just as everything started melting out freakishly quickly, the Bogs Bozeman Tall Boots have been nothing short of eye-opening.
