Tips for Steep Skinning On Your Splitboard or Skis

A few tips for walking up steep terrain. Posture and technique is more important than when and when not to use your heel risers. Practice going steeper without your heelrisers to really feel what it is like to drive your weight in your heels. Practice, practice, practice and then once you feel like you have the awkward movement dialed, engage your heel risers and walk like a pro. If you can't tell, pushing through your heels is really the key to maintaining traction while skinning. So, align your body to get weight and pressure over your heels. If you are tackling and endlessly steep skin track, shorten your poles so you can press down into your poles vs. trying to pull yourself up the hill with longer poles out front of your body. Avoid the international sign of distress! Now go climb something!
