    They have a split board and the way things are blowing up for them I wouldn't be surprised if they added a regular board at some point.

    The whole crew is awesome. Next time you're in there tell them Cutter says hi. I've been with them the last 6 years and they've been beyond awesome to me. It's pretty cool to walk in there and have Ben (founder) take the time to show you around. Travis (artist) lives in Cali but he's super chill as well. I have two of his prints on the wall at my house.

    yea i don't have $$ right now for an axe...

    my poles collapse well and fit on the bag nicely...

    but for now gotta use what i have..and if it can slow me down or help me straighten myself out enough to get an edge it, it's better than nothing at least...

    i haven't stepped into terrain yet that warrants climbing gear yet, so my gear is limited for now...too many hobbies going on right now :D

    Yeah, it gets expensive as you keep going bigger. I splitboarded to the top of Buck Mtn in GTNP 2 weeks ago via the east ridge and snowboarded the east ridge. My partner did not bring his axe and I was pretty worried about him on the climb up the east ridge....a big no fall zone. For around $90 you can get the Raven axe+leash, your life=priceless. A really valuable tool in firm conditions.
