Jordan Skattum's review

Adding ascent plates to my kit was a gamechanger. They basically add surface area under your foot as you bootpack and leave you with more energy for the ski descent / a second lap. There are several options, but these are 100% the best out there right now. *You do need crampons for these to work*
