MTN Approach Deep Winter Kit 2013

When you want to use your whole quiver of snowboards in the backcountry, but, like most people, you don't have an entire quiver of splitboards, the MTN Approach Skis & Backpack are your best bet. Unlike snowshoes, this ski/skin combo actually glides on the skin track, saving you energy and allowing you to take the same route as your two-plank backcountry buddies. At 113 mm underfoot, these fully cambered approach skis are wide enough to keep you from floundering in deep snow, while maintaining and edge on traverses and side-hills. When you reach the top take off the skis, fold them in thirds, and place them in the specially-designed pocket in the MTN Approach backpack; no need to fumble with detaching skins or reconfiguring iced-up splitboard bindings. And, at 2041 g, the MTN Approach set-up is barely noticeable on the descent. The most exciting feature about MTN Approach set-up is that it allows you to ride any board in the backcountry, so you aren't limited to expensive splitboards that don't ride as well as the rest of your quiver. If you're ready for a backcountry snowboarding revolution, hop on a pair of MTN Approaches and you'll see why more and more pros are turning to the MTN system for their backcountry needs. The deep winter kit also includes a pair of lightweight carbon touring poles and a lightweight stamped aluminum avalanche shovel.
