📌 Will this be your first year splitboarding??
yes
If Santa keeps her promise, yep!
Pretty good stuff, I would also add some things about the speed, I found the first few times I ended up basically trying to run up and just overall not enjoying it very much. You basically want to be able to talk through the whole way up (zone 2), otherwise you will end up overheating any case. This ties in with your "don't go up straight", you are aiming for 12 degree angle (~20%).
Combining that with some aerobic training before the season (recommendation: training for the uphill athlete).
Great stuff! I'm currently reading their Training for the New Alpinism...love their content!
I haven’t even made the leap… yet… but I really enjoy some in bounds hiking out into good powder. I often think about making the leap and going all in. This gives an everything you need to get started overview. Thanks! 👍
Thanks for watching Bill! You’ll love it. Makes the hiking way easier too haha
Super informative. Here in Europe the avalanche rucksacks with the airbags are becoming increasingly popular are look to be incredibly effective. I say this as I’ve always been freaked out by avalanches.
Same here. I just picked up an Avy Bag and even though they're heavy, it's definitely worth it.
Thanks for sharing your experience. The tie downs are a great idea.
Thanks for watching man!
Super good breakdown. This video helped me a lot
Heck yeah, glad it helped!
Alot of stuff that I diddent think about, and I've dropped my skis a few times like that too so annoying haha
Yes!! Glad you liked it man! Stoked to get you on one of these!
Link to the split crampons?

Hardboot? I also have rando skis and boots, are there bindings so that I can use the same boots?
Hey! I guess I'm confused with what you're asking.
@@ChadLubinski Are hardboots a type of hard boot made for snowboarding/splitboarding or are hardboots the standard randonee boot?
The boots are quite expensive so it would be a money save if I could use the same boots.
Perhaps it's not called randonee in English. It's the type of ski where you pivot from the toe when going up the mountain and then you can lock the heel when you go down.
@ I feel you… they are expensive af. To my knowledge, you could use other types of heart boots, such as those for skiing, but they just won’t be as good as the actual Splitboard specific boots. My plan is to wait until the technology advances a little more and it become cheaper before getting into them.
@@ChadLubinski It looks like there's a bit of mark up on splitboarding products.
The website I usually get my equipment from has rando skins for $89 but the cheapest slipboard skin is $150, and goes up to $320.
I found a tab called splitboard hardboots and they're in the $600-1100 range, and for the life of me I can't see a difference between these and rando boots.
Edit: I see the splitboard boot can be locked in with a slight forward lean as posed to rando that's either locked straight or in full extension mode. Regardless, I don't see why these would be so much more expensive to produce so I have a feeling there's a "new cool trend" mark up.
@@mrainbowgs Defintely could be man. If you do end up doing something like the rando's instead of the split specific boots, lmk how they work. I'm curious.
Thanks Chad - good pointers
You bet Ryan, thanks for watching!
Thank you sir, lots of great info

Thanks for the video. My current solid board bindings are in need of a replacement soon. Are there any bindings out there that I could use for both split boarding and my solid board? If there are, any cons using these as my only bindings? Thanks!
@@matthewtoeneboehn7784 unfortunately I’m not aware of any since the bindings have to slide onto pucks :/
Karakorams can be used on regular boards
@@LuckyOhara perfect thanks! I’ll look into that
Karakorum
So cool!
thanks mom :)
Awesome video bro 😎
glad you liked it!
Hey, what watch is that, please?

Love it!
you mean you look awesome like boba fett!
My issue is I tour with skiers and they love setting the steepest skin track possible 😂
Hardboots to the rescue for side hilling and weight lol
ahh yes! been looking at hardboots...how you liking them?
@@ChadLubinski game changer if you are looking for bigger days and booting in the high alpine. I'm on a Phantom Hardware, Key-Disruptive boots (Roxa's) and a Korua Escalator Split +/ Amplid Milligram. After a few runs and some tweaks I don't see too big a difference between my soft boots and hard boots. I prefer them now. Plus you'll be 1 step closer to just becoming a skier 😃
@@laxplaysu91 everything I've ever wanted!!! 😂
Getting into it. This is the intel I was looking for.. TX
got you man! enjoy!

funny
Looks like a skill issue
what looks like a skill issue
The best part of the vid was watching some idiot through half of his sblitboard down the mountain. Can I please see more of what happened? It looked pretty funny. Jerry footy for the boys!!
I won’t disagree with that being the best part 😂
well @@ChadLubinskiwith that being agreed, then the logical progression is to change the thumbnail to the "dolt" throwing his split ski with some large bold text that reads MEHhh. 🙌
