Introduction to Splitboarding
BMG is now offering expert instruction on splitboarding. In this course you learn how to efficiently transition from ski to ride mode, skinning techniques, day tour planning, and how maintain and store your equipment. Spending the first day in a class setting will allow for practicing transitions, answering questions, and planning a day tour as a group. On the second day we will go in the backcountry and execute the tour plan. There’s no better way to get a jump on splitboarding than registering today.
We love to give our guests the best conditions we can, so we’re constantly out there making assessments of when and where to ski. Skiing in the Southwest is awesome for several reasons. Storms roll in and out, leaving blue skies and good visibility. New Mexico Skiers enjoy light and fluffy powder in the mid-winter and great corn skiing in the spring. Most of all, the solitude and adventure of the spirit of the Southwest that only New Mexico can offer.
It’s true, some of the best skiing you’ll ever have is in the backcountry where we can take you on a backcountry ski or ski mountaineering tour in New Mexico. We’re out there ski guiding in New Mexico, Washington, and Colorado all winter, well into the spring & even after the lifts have closed for the season. You don’t have to be an expert to enjoy backcountry skiing. Ski New Mexico with some of New Mexico’s best backcountry ski guides.
