PXL_20230224_190609738.jpg So I figured I would just share my latest obsession with y'all. Every time I go ride backcountry I just want to powsurf now. Seriously so much fun that it's ridiculous. Anyone else on here join the bindingless revolution? Would be hyped to see some clips/photos of people powsurfing in the Panhandle.

Have been wanting to try. So are you just booting? What's the uphill travel look like?

Primarily been booting lately. Part of what I like so much about powsurfing is it can make shorter / low-angle zones much more interesting. So booting isn't a bad option. Farm a little zone for pow for as long you can and then move to the next zone.

That being said, I do have vertz snowshoes for slightly longer assents. It is also not a bad option to splitboard to a zone if it is a bit further out, ditch the split at the bottom, and boot pack / snowshoe from there. Quite a few of my buddies have ascent skies too. Just depends on what you prefer.

If one has a sled, there are some great spots out of Burke as well. Just a bit of a walk without the sled.
Once to the spot, just boot up.

I have seen some use the short trek skis. But I'd lean toward the Vert's as well.

The Burton boards have been good! One is a 3D base and one is a flat base. I got a DIY that I have been riding for a few years that is also good times in the right conditions.
