Recent, quality touring kit

The skis: Völkl Blaze

A light and playful freeride touring ski from Völkl, as happy on the way up as it is in powder on the way down.

• Light wood core, for easier climbing
• Rocker at tip and tail, for float in powder and easy turn initiation
• Three-radius sidecut: quick short turns, and stable when you open it up
• Rubber inserts at tip and tail that calm the ski in wind-blown or tracked snow

The bindings: Marker Kingpin

Low-tech bindings from Marker, with pins at the toe for efficient climbing and a heel piece built for solid downhill performance. Völkl recommends the Kingpin for the Blaze.

The boots: K2 Mindbender and Dalbello Lupo

Two low-tech boot models, for men and women, both with a walk mode for the climb and tech inserts for the bindings.

• K2 Mindbender: walk mode with a 50° range of motion, heat-mouldable shell, tech fittings at the toe and heel
• Dalbello Lupo: a freeride touring boot, precise on the descent and comfortable on the skin track
