Jeff Singer has just put up the Osprey and the Sherpa complete backcountry rigs on his web page and they are in stock and available for purchase . These rigs are absolutely fantastic for backcountry touring and riding and also double as superb resort set ups. They are compatible with both regular downhill ski boots as well as specialized alpine touring boots. The binding is regular resort type binding mounted on a bar that releases for touring and then locks down for descent. The binding is also provided with ski crampons for climbing in icy conditions. You can buy your own skins or for an extra cost Jeff will supply a custom cut pair of skins for you .
Here is a picture of the rigs.
I have personally used both the Sherpa and the Osprey with the Ambition touring binding /spruce backcountry riser in all kinds of backcountry conditions and find both rigs stellar with their own particular personalities. Other folks have also used and enjoyed the rigs in the backcountry as well and found them fantastic.
