Rome Men's Whiteroom / Women's Powderroom Splitboards, $679 Our favorite split boards because they handle a wide range of conditions. The Whiteroom is one of the most efficient touring split boards that we have tried. With a moderate rocker in the nose and a deep backseat camber it works more like a traditional nordic ski for the tour up. This was a much improved camber from the Double Agents we carried in previous seasons. Once in board mode the moderate rocker keeps you floating on good snow days but isn't so much that you sacrifice anything for a groomer lap pre work at the resort. With a slight taper to the tail, it won't hold you back from any freestyle fun as well. Split, skin, slash and repeat as needed. |

Union Expedition, $349.95 and Expedition FC Bindings, $499.95 Out of the 5 major companies with a split board binding out on the market, The Union Binding offers by far the best ride down. The bindings actually cam the board together creating a ride that seems like your solid board. No overly stiff metal base plates that don't allow the board to flex or hinder movement. At a price point well below any Spark R&D, Burton, or Karakoram binding and with out the need for any added parts to make the system work. Everything comes in the box if you want to use them on a solid board as well. We believe that if your earning those turns, they deserve to be the best possible. |

G3 High Traction Split Board Skins, $199 The best skin we have tried on a split! Super grippy so you don't end up sliding back down the steeper areas. Glue is solid and sticks even in some of the coldest temps. Most importantly the easiest to trim with the included tool that cuts the skin perfectly leaving your edges exposed while getting full coverage on your base. The new improved tail clips they released last season are super light and keep anything from releasing until you want them to. Shop Now |

Coal The Slasher SE, $62 Soggy headwear at the top sucks the heat out of you, so we disregarded the rules and paired a technical venting balaclava with a waterproof cap. The moisture wicking sweatband keeps you cool while hiking and the anti-gap-flap means no foreheads will make an appearance. Wear the hat for the way up while your working and quickly pull the balaclava over the top for protection for the way down. |
