Head Kore 106 Ti Skis Black 170 Cm by Head — This is the new model of the Head Kore with titanal metal - more stability at speed, more stable in firmer or crustier conditions, but heavier than the original Kores. Regardless of the materials I find the shape and profile of this ski to be so easy to maneuver in all sorts of snow.
Dancer 2 Ski - 2026 by Faction Skis — These are my skis for the firmer days in Bozeman Montana. Super stable at speed and in firm snow and ice. Will feel lighter and easier to turn than some other skis in this class (like a Nordica Enforcer). Great 96 mm underfoot ski.
Attack 14 GW Binding - 2026 by Tyrolia — Lighter and typically a bit cheaper than other comparable bindings. Comes in lots of cool colors. Head Skis owns Tyrolia and all of their binding colors match the accents on the skis each year if you're looking to match!
Soelden 25L Ski & Snowboard Backpack by Osprey — Osprey packs last forever - I actually have an older model of this one with probably 400 ski days on it. For the most part still looks new!
Vantage 2 Mips® by Smith Optics — My helmet for the past 2 seasons. The adjustable venting works awesome, particularly to stay cool on warmer days.
4D MAG ChromaPop Goggles by Smith Optics — Great goggle with easily interchangeable lenses. May run slightly on the small side, so try the Smith 4d MAG XL if you have a larger face. Comes with 2 lenses and a really nice case.
Adapt 2 by Glade Optics — Photochromic goggles have gotten more popular in recent year. Personally I am a giant fan of not needing to pack an extra lens or worrying about lighting. These are a very big frame, but do come in small size as well.
Malone Jacket - Men's by Flylow — An amazing shell for both resort skiing and backcountry. Has a pass pocket, keeps the weather out, and is breathable. Very packable for your backcountry pack!
Chemical Pant - Men's by Flylow — I've owned 3 pairs of these over the past 10 years with over 300 ski days on each before I retire them. Super durable, breathable, and look cool!
SCOTT Insuloft Air Primaloft Men's Hoody by Scott Sports — This is what I've been wearing as a midlayer all year. Very lightweight, breathes well. Initially feels like it may be a little fragile but after a full season it still looks new!
Spark Mitten by Black Diamond — https://www.rendezvu.co/d/thomas-harari/spark-mitten
Tough Guy Glove - Men's by Flylow — My go to glove for warmer days. I always carry these and the Black Diamond Spark Mittens and swap as temps change!
Lockjaw Alu/EVA Adjustable Ski Poles by K2 — Adjustable poles are simple and in my opinion just need to be durable. These have worked great and adjust easily. I was able to easily remove to the straps as I don't want them in the backcountry.
Ascension Climbing Skins by Black Diamond — One of the most cost effective options, but takes a little more time for setup.
XLP 2C BT Foot Warmer by Hotronic — Expensive but worth it. I can feel comfortable even at the coldest temps ski resorts will operate with these in. Has 4 different temperature settings.
Ski Targeted Cushion OTC Sock by Smartwool — Cushion in all the right places. For those that haven't had true ski socks before, having a true ski sock like this will make your boot fit better and keep your feet warmer and drier.
°bootcap® by Bootcap — A super cheap way to increase the warmth of your boots! The adhesive right on, are warm, and won't fall off.
