MSR Supercrampon!

[Steeps]

Interesting... they make quite the variety of snowshoes, including old-school beavertails. I don't think anything beats the flotation of an old-school...

[Steeps]

This is from the 'make do with what ya got' files...

With all the backcountry binding talk, I was thinking about crampons and the idea of...

[Steeps]

Good, glad to hear! It's been on the back burner of my to-do list for a while (building a house this year, so have many other things to worry about)....

[Steeps]

Nice terrain and views!

Hmm, those Skeats look like a good addition to the touring setup (those glide fins look cool too), and the price...

[Steeps]

Yep! Spring riding's always a good time to get people out. I've done this informally with friends in the spring. There's also a surprising number of people...

[Steeps]

Nice work!

What's the plastic, is that HDPE?



Hey, you're in BC, right? Let me know if you're getting something...

[Steeps]

Hey, if you make it to Kicking Horse on those Stickies and want to go for a lap, give me a heads up! That's my local hill. My sister and the littles...

[Steeps]

Nice glade running! I love it when the trees get swoopy and a little mogul-ey like that; there's lots to play around on. Looks like you got up close...

[Steeps]

I've had 3 (4?) full seasons on this hill, so I know the areas I'm riding. I take it a lot slower when I'm scoping out new lines...

[Steeps]

Too lazy to edit, so here's a rough cut of Jan 6, 2021 at the Horse... pretty much how the day went down, in order. Another average skiboard session....

[Steeps]

Nice one! Hmm, that's a reasonable option for mounting brakes to Receptors, maybe. I'd have to look at some aftermarket brakes to see. I've wanted...

[Steeps]

This is the reason I like the idea of doing mods/add ons to the base Receptor plate, rather than a replacement riser. It may be outside of what the plate...

[Steeps]

You may not be in Canada, but you're appropriately dressed for it. That's a sweet jacket! Red plaid and denim never goes out of style here, but that's...

[Steeps]

Hmm, that could be really interesting for getting around and exploring, then, as a snowshoe substitute....

[Steeps]

Ooh, exciting!

[Steeps]

If -10C is bitter cold, I'm envious of your climate.

[Steeps]

Hmm, I lived in Nelson for a winter, which is hilly and very snowy (schoolchildren pack their skis to class on a snow day and ride street at lunch). ...

[Steeps]

Nice! That's getting to be a slick little setup! I may have to attempt this, especially for some light-duty touring out back of my place (especially...

[Steeps]

What type of terrain do you ride? Also wondering if you're committed to a rockered/cambered board. I'm a huge Spliff fan and usually can find enough...

[Steeps]

Oh, good news! I've had it in my head that they were longer. The Spliffs do so well that I haven't seriously toyed with the idea of a dedicated powder...
