As a splitboard poles are a necessary tool to get up the mountain but on the way down they are always in our way and only in the already most uncomfortable situations we need them. Never the less when buying new poles there is certain things you need to look out for as we discussed in our blog a view weeks ago.

We were very skeptical at first.. An extra part to the "normal boards" we were used to, surely it takes longer to assemble? Will it be heavier? Stiff enough when riding?... Thankfully all our worries were completely demolished! I wasn't really keen on testing this Splitboard, I really thought this is unnecessary and doesn't bring any advantages. Maybe to those who want to run up a mountain for thousands of meters, but not for me. All this was going through my mind at first. But I gave it a...

We got pretty excited when we found out Salomon is making a special Splitboard boot. They do have a lot of experience in making shoes. And their normal snowboard boots are epic. The first impression of the boot was good, everything looked well manufactured. But when we got to try on the boot it got a little more complicated, there are quite a lot of different lacing systems. First there is the liner; the liner fits very well like with other Salomon boots. To support the heel there is a heel...

The Snowboard boot is probably the most important device of your riding equipment. Snowboard and binding you can get used to, but if the boot doesn’t fit.. It can ruin a good Snowboard day.

Considering it's solid appearance it feels light for hiking and touring, and even gives you enough confidence walking on small ridges. The...

This glove is a must have in your quiver. It is the glove you'll wear on 95% of the days. It doesn't matter if your just cruising around in a resort or going up some steep faces, with ice axe and ropes, this glove does not get out of its comfort zone. It is almost ridicules how long it lasts, if properly treated with leather balm this glove can last decades.

Finding the right boot is very hard, and believe me.. We have tried some boots over the years! Not just the flex, dampening and lacing system has to make the boot fit. But the actual boot itself needs to fit well, If it doesn't you will never be happy with it.

After meeting in Rosenheim to sort out our carpool - our destination was the ISPO Exhibition in Munich. We had planned to meet up with our Splitboard-camps.at partners, sponsors and friends.

With our smooth drive almost behind us and on the search of a parking spot, we got pulled over!! After a little chat with two lovely Police guys we were soon on...
