Check out my Arbor Bryan Iguchi Splitboard review to see how this board held up while splitboarding around the Teton Mountains. Camber is back. Which is a good thing especially when it comes to splitboarding. Bryan Iguchi, Arbor and a handful of other snowboard manufacture realized what was holding splitboarding back, reverse camber underfoot. Those […]
The simplest way to explain the GNU Mullair Snowboard is to let Nico’s riding do the talking. If you’ve been following his career even for just a few years, you’ve got a good idea of his style, and this board is tuned for just that. Nico has been at the top of the natural-terrain world […]
Since 1939, Swiss based Montana Sports International has been making quality climbing skins that most likely have not been on your radar, until now. I have had the pleasure of testing the mohair/nylon mix Montanmix Skin here in the Tetons over the past few months. Find out what I liked and what can be changed in […]
The Patagonia PowSlayer Jacket is built with a GORE-TEX Pro 3-Layer material that offers a lighter weight feel, a ton of waterproofness 28,000 and lots of breathability 25,000. I had the chance to test the updated Patagonia PowSlayer Jacket here in the Tetons in a variety of temperatures and snow conditions from heavy wet mush […]
When starting dog leash training with your dog the #1 goal is to make your dog understand that you’re the center of the universe and the one in control. The Alpha of the pack per say. This is especially important with a smart working breed like German Shorthaired Pointers, Spanish Pointers, English Pointers, and so […]
One thing that you may notice about both the Vans Hi-Standard Snowboard Boots is the use of traditional lacing. Call us old fashioned but nothing really compares to the feeling of putting on a pair of snowboard boots, pulling up on the laces and tying a big old knot or perhaps a double knot. See […]
The Burton Lexa Bindings are the sister binding to the popular men’s Burton Cartels, both known to be progressive freestyle bindings. The Re:Flex is fully integrated to the base of this season’s Lexa bindings. It is a modern concept that connects to the purpose of Burton’s Channel design. This is the main reason why the […]
The BCA Shaxe Speed Shovel turns your ice axe into a “what if” addition (along with the medkit, firestarter, extra food, etc…). When BCA sent us their Shaxe Speed Shovel, I jumped at the opportunity to review it. And while the tool left me wanting on a few ticks, all told it has become my […]
Igneous Custom Skis and Snowboards Review
I first became familiar with Igneous Skis and Igneous Snowboards from a chica named Jess Turtur. She would always share about help making the boards, how fascinating the process was, and how Igneous boards are so well crafted. When I heard Igneous could make any board you could dream of, I was inspired to have […]
I opted for a pair of Salomon Dialogue Snowboard Boots with the Powerlace Pro lacing system after 2 seasons of using my old snowboard boots which were completely blown out losing all support and failing to hold my heels in place, (one of my biggest pet peeves when riding.) Sound familiar? Asking around it seemed […]
