What’s better than riding resort pow? Riding proper backcountry pow, that’s what.

After watching Devin Overton’s 2013/14 splitboarding edit there’s nothing we’d rather do than cut our boards in half, nail some carpets to them and get hiking up and into them hills!

Just look at the terrain he manages to get to out in the San Juan Mountains (part of the Colorado Rockies) – not only is it amazing but it’s also completely untouched. Even with the now ubiquitous Black Keys – Hell of a Season soundtrack (fast becoming the new Sail for season edits), it still makes us pine for those face shots, still a cruel three months away.

We’re not entirely sure, but it looks like Devin may have been going on these missions solo – bad! Like we always say, friends are essential on a pow day.
