Dang man, what a great intro video: not too long and to the point! I’ve been looking for an intro to split video like this for weeks!
Awesome, glad it was worth the watch. Put a few months into this one to make it as helpful as possible without anything unnecessary
Awsome video! I'm used to snowboard as a kid, but switched to skiing at some point. Kinda wanna get back into snowboarding again now.
But for the love of God, the straps on your skiipoles are made to be used. Your not supposed to grip the pole while pushing or leaning on it, your supposed to relax your grip and hang inside the straps. Pull the straps away from the pole, put your hand upwards through them and then grab the grip around the straps so that you have the straps around your wrist and between your hand and skipole grip area 😊
For backcountry travel, it's not always best to use the straps on poles, for if you were to get caught in an avalanche you would not want your poles stuck on your wrists as they could pull you down further in the falling snow. I know plenty of people that actually cut their straps off because of this
Great video, thanks for putting this together for us all!
Thank you, spent a lot of time on this one to make sure all the basics were covered
Good video!
I like pomoca skins and see no shortened life going glue to glue and not fussing with the skin saver in the backcountry, especially when it’s windy!
Thanks dude! Good tip, I've yet to use those skins
@@SearchofSnowboarding aaaa, worth the money. The pink ones (forget the model) are where it’s at. Best glue in the game and great glide and grip.
And they pack down super small to cram in a pocket!
Aweson video! Really useful and handy for a newbies like me. Thanx for all of your advises and know-how!
Sweet, glad it all made sense! haha
Good quick tips - although i would strongly disagree about merino being quick wicking - my experience is the complete opposite. Advantage of merino is that it keeps you relatively warm even if wet. Best wicking material is a mesh with large holes made of polypropylene. Merino is much better as a layer on top of that.
Hi! For someone very good at snowboarding, would you still recommend getting a tutor for the first time splitboarding or is it something that should come rather naturally? The technical aspects (like putting on skins etc.) I expect would be covered while renting out the gear.
Great video, thanks! Question if I may... is the base of the Charger as big (wide) as e.g. the base of the Atlas/Falcor. Wondering if I should go Medium, since my 10/10.5 boots seem a bit small in the Large. TIA.
Yeah, it's pretty much the same size as the solid bindings. I would go with the same size on the Chargers that you would ride regular Unions
Thank you! 🙌
Just starting to watch this video, but for many years now I've been wanting to try split boarding. I live in SE Michigan though so that's not a local option. I go out to the Vail area almost every year though, but try as I might I haven't been able to find anyone to take me on a trip while I'm out there. I'm not stupid, I don't expect to go right into the backcountry untrained, but I figure there has to be some "dude ranch" version of split boarding where you try it out in a safe environment so you can feel what it is to skin up, deal with the gear, etc. Seems like a missed opportunity, especially in CO.
There was an awesome little resort called Bluebird Backcountry in Kremmling, CO where you could safely learn everything about splitboarding. There were no lifts and you could have a guide teach you, but unfortunately it sounds like last season was their final year. If you're ever in Aspen, Radio Boardshop rents splitboards and you can uphill on Buttermilk and Snowmass to get the feel
@@SearchofSnowboarding i heard about Bluebird. Shame they closed down so fast. :(
I am brand new to splitboarding, and just purchased my first kit used. My skins didn't come with a tail clip. How necessary is a tail clip, and is it possible to attach tail clips, or would you recommend purchasing new skins?
Great question.They are not crucial, the glue of the skin will keep them attach to the board good enough. You can rivet some on if you'd like but that's a huge pain in the neck. I'd use them and get tail clips on your next pair
criminals will do anything to not put a pair of skis on their feet😂
