We’re teaming up with DPS Skis and Outdoor Research to give away all kinds of goodies this week. Watch the third episode of DPS Cinematic’s The Shadow Campaign web series, above, and then enter, below, for your chance to win a radical prize package. One winner will recieve a pair of skis of your choice from the DPS’ all-new Foundation series (with the option to add Phantom treatment), everyday-use Santi poles and a men’s or women’s Skyward Jacket/Pant outerwear kit direct from the folks at Outdoor Research.
About the skis… We suggest choosing the Foundation Wailer 112. What happens when you combine rigid carbon, sturdy fiberglass and a forgiving bamboo-poplar core? You get DPS’ new Foundation line, which includes the notable Wailer 112. It’s an extremely stable yet playful and light set of boards that’ll get the job done on any day at the resort or in the backcountry. A durable and textured polyamide topsheet helps avoid wear and tear on the exterior, too.
About the Skyward kit… Featuring Outdoor Research’s finest detailing, both the Skyward jacket and bib pants are made for a multitude of situations, from hot lapping the frontside to slogging into the backcountry to find clean lines. Fully seam-taped, with YKK AquaGuard and AquaGuard Vislon zippers, a comfortable, articulated fit and movement-mirroring stretch design allow you to perform at the highest caliber.
About the poles… A good pair of ski poles can help with balance, form and control on the slopes. That’s where DPS’ Santi poles enter the conversation. Incorporating proper weight distribution, a tacky, rubber grip and function-first design, the Santi poles are the everyday, frontside solution to poking the snow.
The Shadow Campaign is DPS Cinematic’s annual web series featuring beautiful cinematography and awe-inspiring skiing. You can find the first two episodes of the season right here and here. The third episode, above, entitled “Apex Predators of the Northern Deep,” explores what happens when “a tranquil day of ice fishing goes suddenly awry when natural selection rears its ferocious head. Something lurks in the depths of the great lonesome mountains of the North–a land where if you are not the predator, you WILL be the prey. But four skiers will not go down without a fight.”
