MNT Approach - folding skinned skis
Just stumbled upon this new company manufacturing a pretty ingenious product for backcountry snowboarders, eliminating the need for snowshoes. The MNT Approach ski comes fully skined and ready to climb with just unfold it and away you go. Read the product specs below for a better taste.
With features like integrated skins, full camber for traversing and a complete weight that rivals a snowshoe, MTN Approach Skis have truly changed the game.
Forget about assembling and disassembling your board in adverse conditions, hoping you put it together correctly despite the ice that settled in the brackets during the transition. No more wishing you could utilize your whole snowboard quiver in the backcountry depending on the conditions but being limited to the one touring setup you have. And don't worry about breaking the bank on a new splitboard setup. Now you can quite literally have the best of both worlds—the absolute best hiking/climbing system in existence at an affordable price and whatever board you choose to ride that day.
Macking quick laps in mini-golf terrain is no longer a problem. Going from ride-to-hike during a quick stretch of flats will only cost you a minute. No more hesitation to go get that quick line you see from your sled. Hike and ride seamlessly, transitioning faster than your friends on two planks.
