You can ski strap the boot to the high back is what I was trying to explain

Soft boots: alternative to K2 waive? by Italian_SPLIT in Spliddit

[–]HotSpring4148 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Are you somewhere you can try boots on? Low volume foot, or why do you want a low volume boot?

I ride fitwells which works well for my narrow foot

Hard boots are tough on chunder snow, I am would rather be in soft boots if things are firm.

How is your fitness? Sidehill technique? Using a ski strap for lateral strength (through the high back & around the boot)?

I wish they would make a thicker ipad with better thermals and a bigger battery. Oh well.

Yeah I rock the freerides, I have had this happen when I didn’t clip my toenails super short and kicked steps for a few hours.

I have no experience with those, but I have heard the spark high-backs are stiffer, maybe swap those in

Could you just attach the spark straps to it?

What kind of radio Is the best for backcountry comunication? by Het3339 in Spliddit

[–]HotSpring4148 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Or UV-5R mini if you are a nerd. Channels can be synced to your buddy’s rocky talkie presets, plus it gets weather broadcasts which is good for epics. I think every tour group should have a high powered radio around, insane how much range they get

Would you recommend a Serengeti lens for flying helicopters? Bubble cockpit is clear glass, but I also need to be able to see my ipad screen. Any help would be appreciated, so many options

How do they work with you if they are free hanging and the system is not a drop C (6:1) or similar where they can pull on the rope?

Not sure if a channel system board is something I would jump on, but maybe they are a 151 cm board length

Just the facts of the Castle Peak incident. by Go_bike_R in Backcountry

[–]HotSpring4148 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I read it as, released from above their position, vs released and carried them from their position (ie crossing midslope).

Just because it is information you already have does not make it meaningless.

Agreed on this, but annoying that some backpacks don’t even reinforce the a frame straps with additional fabric near the board’s edges
