Alpine Touring is the most efficient way to travel in the mountains in winter. Dramatic advances in ski, boot and binding technology have made AT gear much lighter, safer and reliable and these improvements plus the fact that it’s great exercise and a more “natural” experience have resulted in a large increase in alpine touring the last few years. There is a vast choice of gear depending upon your style of touring. Ultralight gear for skimo competitions and fitness training, all-round kit for traditional touring and fat touring skis for backcountry powder. The TP team are fanatic tourers and our experience ensures that we can suggest the best gear for your needs. We also stock a huge range of off-piste safety gear, binding accessories, helmets, poles, skins and backpacks.

Splitboard touring was invented by Voile in Salt Lake City and is gaining in popularity every winter. Like other backcountry winter disciplines, gear has improved immensely with lighter boards and binding systems that are more ergonomic and that can switch mode (up / down hill) ever faster. We stock boards from Jones, Voile and K2 bindings from Spark, Voile and Karakorum plus splitboard skins and touring poles. We also carry a vast range of accessories and spare parts. On a budget and handy with a jigsaw? Voile’s famous Split Kit lets you start splitboarding at minimal cost. Not sure what’s best for you? TP’s splitboarders will be happy to advise should you like help starting out in the backcountry, or should you not be able to find what you need. Give us a shout, we’re here to help!!
