Ski Mountaineering Equipment | What I Would Keep & Change | EP4

In this video I reflect on ski equipment I used when climbing and skiing my first 4000m peak. I weigh and show you what I normally ski tour with and how I changed it for ski mountaineering and finally what I learned from this adventure and show you how I would improve my packing for the next mountain.

Love your ski mountaineering videos. I live here in Lake Tahoe and plan on doing a lot of peaks the eastern sierras next season. Your videos are awesome. My son loves your park videos. Inspiring and helpful!

[@peterbell8564]

Great video, hoping for more ski mountaineering content

[@tjb8841]

This is the way to do it! Make your best choice, do the trip, then come back and evaluate what worked and what didn’t. This is how we learn and improve. Not just for gear, but also for skills and decisions.

[@Sevlanrus]

Thank you, very nice and detailed overview! Planing my first ski touring, and now can see where I can save weight :)

[@StompItTutorials]

Glad it was helpful!

[@Nico-bv6hi]

Dude you're posting on a daily, nicee! So muasses sie 👌

[@StompItTutorials]

Sadly I cant keep this up for more than one day today :)

[@Nico-bv6hi]

@@StompItTutorials Well sad story but atleast we can look forward to some other cool videos in the future :)

[@Groscacatoutmou]

Thank you for your video man ! Helps a lot, I just have one question, which neck wear : type, brand do you use ? I have ever wondered :). Thx a lot, I sent to my friends the video for beginners, they loved it ! Keep it stomped

[@Beauhigg]

I gobble these videos up everytime

[@StompItTutorials]

Thank you :)

[@jimicob9143]

you can put your skins under your jacket when riding down, that way the skins will dry a bit and work better when touring the rest back home. I would also recommend to add a small first aid kit with 1-2 bandages to your tape and ibu + an emergency sleeping bag or thermal blanket. cheers!

[@StompItTutorials]

Thank for that.

[@tjb8841]

You can save weight with a smaller shovel, and it will take up less space in your pack, meaning you can get by with the smaller backpack easier. The Black Diamond Transfer LT shovel is my current favorite. It still works well (has a long handle), but is much smaller and lighter than that full sized Mammut you have there

[@asiergoitia7361]

How’s the change from the Backland 107 + shift bindings to the backland 100 + touring bindings? Are you able to charge and trust on that touring ligheter gear? I I’ve heard that the shift binding feels a LOT heavier on the uphill for a LITTLE more response skiing down, do you feel the same? I am thinking aboutt getting touring gear and your help would be great! Thanks for the content, it’s really helpfull and enjoyable ;)

[@brocknordstrom7807]

omg the breaking glass sound at 11:55 😜

[@markthomasson5077]

Try using a bum bag in addition to the rucksack. Great for things you need on the go, so you don’t need to remove the rucksack

[@grannsnewadventures8450]

OK this is some really useful information I really appreciate it, however I have some questions about your skis. I really like the atomic Backland but I’m torn between going with the 100 and the 107‘s as my all-around touring skis here in the Pacific Northwest. Right now I’m leaning towards the 100s because 90% of it is going uphill. what are your thoughts as an expert who skis both?

[@deborahpoliti1063]

Very detailed 👍🏻

[@StompItTutorials]

Thank you! Cheers!

[@deborahpoliti1063]

You are most welcome ! Have a nice day!

[@rikumoilanen13]

Good kontent

[@StompItTutorials]

Thank you Riku.

[@marekholub8668]

Why not to go with something like Backland 85 or even something thinner?

[@StompItTutorials]

What if we would have found some pow on the way down? I would want to sacrifice that 1 moment of fun for less hard work for hours ;) In my current head space 100m is the narrowest Im willing to go.

[@PatrickWoerner]

@@StompItTutorials 100 Meters, sheeesh thats wide! :D

[@cypriano8763]

Every gram counts. Light= more energy for difficult situations

[@kozy112]

Did’nt see you back an airbag. Should this be essential avalanche gear for ski touring?

[@StompItTutorials]

Yes and No, great to have but not a must have. I generally like airbags and they are a great safety add on which will save lives. You will see me wear one in adventure vlogs this winter where the objective and risk situation is different from Gran Paradiso on that specific day.

[@tomsan91]

Even this "light" set up is quite heavy, the backland 100 wouldn't be the first ski I would pick up for a spring tour even my backland 95s are quite weighty with a dynafit st binding fitted.

[@tjb8841]

Tomsan, actually, the Backland 100 is VERY light. It is actually lighter than the 95! (At least in years past. The 95 was redone this year. Not sure about weight). Of course, 95mm might be better skiing or skinning on firm snow.

[@tomsan91]

@@tjb8841 there was no 169cm backland 100 in 2022, the 171 was 1290g per ski and the 95 in a 169 was 1250g per ski

I love u

[@StompItTutorials]

I love you too ;)

[@hawlikd]

Poo Paper eh!

[@fab1000]

my advices: go with a lighter backpack, take less clothes and take a Petzl Sirroco instead of your ski helmet

[@StompItTutorials]

Good idea with the helmet but... climbing helmets look so silly for skiing. Im super happy to wear one when I´m out multi-pitch climbing but when skiing im too vain :P Maybe I can find a helmet that satisfy both needs.

[@PatrickWoerner]

I did a Skitour a few days ago wearing my petzl sirocco helmet.. When riding down, the air was whistling through every little slot in the helmet. this could be very cold and it was very loud. Also: A mountaineering helmet isn't meant for skiing, since it's constructed for other risks (rock/icefall, which generally come from above). A Skihelmet is designed for other risks (falling). There are dedicated skitouring helmets. Hope this one helped :)

[@fab1000]

@@PatrickWoerner true for the air and the certification but I m wearing it only while climbing and not skiing (old school and/or idiot depending of your POV)

[@PatrickWoerner]

@@fab1000 so you don't wear a helmet when skiing down? well thats a statement ;) I personally wouldn't do that, but i'm a bad skiier/beginner in ski touring.
