Patrick Collins's Expert Gear Recommendations
Splitboarding Outerwear
- MTN Lab Helmet by Salomon
- Guide's Choice S RX by Smith Optics
- Men's Alpine Start Hoody by Black Diamond — This is the daily driver for walking uphill. Nothing but a sun hoody under this, perfect for almost every day of the year. Sheds medium snow, always part of my layering kit
- Beta SL Jacket Men's by Arc'teryx — Ultralight and no frills. Pick a bright color
- Men's Dawn Patrol Pants by Black Diamond — Softshell pant is a must!
- Atom Hoody Men's by Arc'teryx — A key part of the active layering kit. This goes over the lightweight softshell at the start of your day.
- Cerium Hoody Men's by Arc'teryx
- Guide Gloves by Black Diamond — Always at the bottom of the bag ready to save my hands on lap 3. You'll never regret carrying these on a long day.
- Tour LT Gloves by Black Diamond — Gotta have a pair of gloves to sweat in!
- Legend Gloves by Black Diamond — I end up wearing these on the downhill most of the time.
