Whether you're navigating through backcountry powder or coordinating a meet-up on the mountain, the Packtalk Outdoor keeps everyone in the loop. With a range of up to 1.2 kilometers and waterproof durability, it's perfect for harsh winter conditions.

Designed for both skiing and snowboarding, these bindings are engineered for ultra-fast setup and adjustment, allowing you to fine-tune your stance on the fly.
The Origin Black Line bindings feature a patented QuickSett lever system, which makes it incredibly easy to lock in the perfect stance or make minor adjustments throughout the day. With an emphasis on durability and performance, these bindings use high-grade aluminum and carbon fiber components, making them both lightweight and tough enough to handle even the most aggressive riding.

This helmet uses multi-impact EPP foam, which provides superior protection by absorbing multiple shocks without losing its protective properties.
The Stoked Helmet also features an integrated RECCO reflector for avalanche rescue, as well as a MIPS (Multi-Directional Impact Protection System) layer to reduce rotational forces in the event of a crash. Additionally, the helmet includes an adjustable ventilation system, so you can regulate your temperature whether you're carving down the mountain or trekking uphill.
