I really enjoyed watching this, brings me fully in the mood of preparing my trip !
Thank you for this. Can't wait to go and hike Norway this July!
thanks for the comment! Where in Norway are you going?
@@utewebinar2978 for now Oslo and Bergen(Trolltunga). Need to finalize everything first.
@@ChristmasFanatic0107 Awesome! You have to come up to the Sunnmøre Alps :)
@@utewebinar2978 I will check it out. Only got 8 days in Norway so I need to plan this well.
By the way, a hike to Trolltunga, trail runners is enough? I read it is a bit hard but my hikes will be day hikes or 1 night at most. Do I need to bring my hiking boots? I just find them heavy thats all.
Refleksvest til å legge ut hvis det er mørkt og du trenger hjelp av helikopter. Kan legges synlig eller henges på stav mens du kan ligge i ly
Great video! Thanks for making it! :)
Great educative video, helpful to build up a purchase list.
Great to here Francis! Have a good day!
Most Importend is Cannabis The best of the top on the mounten
Lighter and Ptex :)
For a multiday trip i would concider that but for a daytrip it wont be necessary.
I like this review! Weri more information. Whot brand this inclinometer?
Igor Plotnikov it´s a Slope Angel Halo, but i think they are out of stock. (due covid)
Great video thanks - you mentioned a link to your gismo for measuring slope angles?
Hi Philip Slope Angel halo www.slopeangel.com/product/slope-angel-halo/
Wow, I've always wanted to know why would anyone use crampons on skis,now I know, excellent video.Is there a company that makes ski crampons for"split boards"?
Hi Craig, Most of the producers of splitboarding binding to crampons to these to :) We have been using Plum bindings.
Good video but you forgot one VERY IMPORTANT TOOL THAT YOU MUST HAVE,YOUR"AVALANCHE TRANSCEIVER",AND EXTRA BATTERIES.NO TRANSCEIVER NO SKI TOUR IN THE BACKCOUNTRY,NO EXCEPTION!AND YOU DON'T KEEP IT IN YOUR BACKPACK,YOU WEAR IT UNDER YOUR 1ST LAYER.
Hi Craig, Have you read the text below the video?;) "Don´t forget to bring your beacon either - we will come back to that in a new video soon :) " The things is that we don´t want anyone to put their beacon in there backpack it should be on the body. Therefor we choosed to not have it in the video about what to pack in your backpack.
GOOD VIDEO!
Thanks Rodolfo
Wow, Karhu Skies?! How old are those skis?
Not as old as gordie :)
Did you mention transceiver, missed it?
Hi lain, Correct - we have made a not about it in the text. We didn´t mention the beacon because we focused on what to put in the backpack and didn´t want to confuse people about where to have your beacon. This should be on either the body or in your pants.
How much does all this weigh? I would imagine there would be some trade offs here between safety and weight. How much of this do you carry on an every day tour?
Hi! I don’t have the weight in my head now straight up but will have a look and get back. In general it’s not very heavy. Arva also makes some really light avalanche backpacks (with ballon).
Toilet paper!
good one Tim!
That's an awful lot of gear to fit into a 35L pack. Do you really need to schlep all that stuff with you, especially when you are just out for a day tour? When fully loaded with all the gear, clothing and equipment that you out in your pack, how much does it weigh?
Do not underestimate it.... from my experience - most of this stuff came in handy :-)
Hi Ken, This is what i normally bring for a day of ski touring here in Stranda, Norway. I will try to weight the backback for you another day but it´s not superheavy at least. Light enough for me to enjoy the ski tours. If im skiing in the resort I often go for a lighter setup. // Oscar
Yes a beacon is a great bit of kit, but it should not preclude good mountaineering decisions. Avoid avalanche prone slopes (37 degrees). Be aware of the snow pack - has there been a freeze thaw? Dig an avalanche pit before crossing a suspect slope - rope up. Stick to ridges after a heavy snowfall or a sudden thaw. If there are rocks poking out then you are OK. What noise does the snow make when you are skinning - a squeaky noise or maybe a booming noise? Is there evidence of local small avalanches, maybe even under your feet? ? Has the wind blown the virgin snow to the other side of the mountain creating block snow? If you want to cross aslope look at the run off - if there is a cliff or rocks don't! Lots and lots of indicators. Don't just expect a transceiver to save your life. Remember 1 cubic metre of snow weighs roughly a tonne. Multiply that by half a mountain side and it sets like concrete! Do you really want to be 3 metres down with dislocated limbs and with a mouth full of snow? All of this should be computing in your head. I haven't skinned in the mountains for a very long time, but my advice to you is still relevant. It's not all about fancy gear my friends. Learn your trade and keep safe.
never use: gps, in reach, compass, map, first aid kit {duct tape does it all}, goggles [ sun glasses]. also you need a 3m probe
Thanks for the additional gear @cypriano. Initially we did this video for our own clients so they could check out what to bring on a day of ski touring with one of our guides. That’s the reason why we don’t mention a bunch of stuff that the guide will bring with him/her. We have done some more videos and will publish them soon with even more info. 🤓
Good overview thanks
Thanks seymour!
Don't forget the Avalanche Transceiver
The beacon are with no doubt one of the most important things here. The main reason why we didn’t mention it at because of the topic “what to pack in you backpack” - if it’s one place the beacon shouldn’t be, it’s in the backpack 😉. We are making new videos all the time and the avalanche gear will be topic in a coming one. Cheers, Oscar
Who makes the goggles that mention please?
Hi Steve, They are produced by Julbo // Oscar
Thank you! I’ll look that up. When I’m on the uphill I get warm and that looks like it’ll help tons!
@@Vinnie19711 they are perfect for that. Don’t understand why other producers haven’t made a copy of it
Excellent presentation and nice to here not just what you bring, but also why you choose the gear you use. Lots of little tips as to why you use a specific type of gear - very helpful to think about how to pack and what will work best for you.
Maybe I missed it but You did not mention an avalanche beacon ?
Hi JB, good comment there :) We choosed to don´t bring the beacon in this topic because we don´t want people to have it on them. If you see the text below the video, just above this comment you see it there. Hope to get some skiing done soon.
@@utewebinar2978 You don’t want people to have a beacon on them? Am I reading this right?
@@jbak11 We want them to have a beacon on the body (approved pocket in the pants) or harness but not in the backpack.
@Janky I know that I was just wondering why they did not even mention it as it is one of the most essential elements.
Who makes the backpack?
Hi, thanks for sharing all that info, allways nice to see the different variations in the equipment each rider has. Would you recommend any tech bindings in particular? Freeride use mainly, skinning, some moderate cliff dropping... I came from beast 16, just having dubts between rotation st12 and ion 12. Any advise or recommendation? Why? Wich one have you heard that gives less troubles? Thanks in advance i will apreciate your point of view.
Hi Chemawaters A, I have been using Dynafit binding since 2007 and are superhappy with them. They are solid, no problems and work perfect. I have been using the st12 and they have been handeling everything i have put them to test on. I have also heard a lot of good things about the Ion.
