Honest & Real Feedback on the Gear We Use
Let’s get this out of the way first:
I don’t pay full price for most of the gear I use. I’ve worked in the outdoor and lifestyle space since around 2003/2004, so I have access to industry discounts (much love to outdoor prolink) and pro-deal programs. That said, I still choose the gear I use, and when I say I can pick from a lot of brands, I really mean it. The only thing on this site I paid full price for? The van.
Everything you’ll see here is gear I actually use, abuse, travel with, and trust. No “brand sent this and I tried it once” reviews. No pushing products just because it was sent to me. I'll be very clear below if it was free.
Bag Balm Skin Moisturizer, $6.49
If you spend winters in very cold places and are constantly taking your gloves off, or work outside; you probably already know about Bag Balm.
It’s been around forever for a reason.
I don’t work outside, but I spend a ton of time in cold weather and have a bad habit of pulling my gloves off. My hands get smoked every winter. And yes, I’m known to pick at them too. Not great.
I stick with the original formula. It smells like straight-up medicine and your hands will be a little greasy for a bit afterward. They do offer other formulas if the OG isn't for you.
That’s just part of the deal, but it works.
It saves my hands after long days hanging around in freezing temps.
Bonus: when your hands are a little slick, you’re less likely to scroll your phone on the chairlift and more likely to take in the mountains around you.
Old school and effective!

Nemo Jazz™ Double Synthetic Sleeping Bag, $379.95
Nemo Jazz™ Double
MSRP: $379.95
NEMO calls this “bringing the experience of your bed at home wherever you go.”
This thing is better than the comforter or weighted blanket on most beds.
The Jazz falls into NEMO’s car camping category, which basically means it’s perfect for vanlife or setups where your vehicle isn’t far from camp. It’s not ultralight, and it’s not trying to be. It’s overbuilt built for comfort in the best way.
It has absolutely saved me this winter. New England 2026 has been no joke; I’m talking -27° nights chasing storms.
My heater doesn’t run all night in the van, and this bag has stepped up when it mattered.
A few things I love:
Ridiculously warm, and easy to get in and out of for those middle-of-the-night bathroom runs.
The Zipper never snags, and it feels like a legit comforter, not a traditional mummy bag.
It comes with a removable built-in sheet. I don’t exactly sleep still, if you know what I mean, so I removed it.
It also has a built-in sleeping pad sleeve, but I just throw it directly on top of my mattress in the van.
If you’re winter camping, vanlifing, or just run cold, this is one of those pieces of gear that makes cold nights very manageable.
Don't cheap out on a good night sleep. Spend the money on your sleeping gear.

ROTO PAX 2 Gallon Fuel Container ($99.99) + LOX Pack Mount ($79.99)
Fuel Container MSRP: $99.99
LOX Pack Mount MSRP: $79.99
Build: CARB/EPA 50-state compliant · Made in the USA · 10-year leak-free guarantee.
You’ll usually see these on rigs headed way off-grid and deep into the backcountry. That’s not me.
I’m not miles from civilization, and I’m not running a 4x4 deep into nowhere. I’ve got a front-wheel-drive van and I’m almost always within reach of a gas station.
That said, in winter, this thing earns its keep.
The ROTO PAX gives me extra fuel security to make sure my gasoline heater inside the van always has what it needs. When I’m chasing powder and “accidentally” get stuck at a resort for a day or two,
I’m not exactly driving down the road to top off the tank.
I went with the lockable mount for obvious reasons. I will be honest though, the LOX lock is not great with East Coast weather. It really should come with a rubber cover or gasket.
I had one rust out in about six months and had to drill it out (super fun).
As for the container itself, solid. No leaks. No issues. It does exactly what it’s supposed to do.
You'll probably use your ROTO PAX helping others that ran out of gas vs needing it yourself.

Nidecker Thruster Snowboard, $579.95
MSRP: $579.95
Profile: Directional · Camber · Mid-Stiff
The Thruster has been the perfect do-it-all board for the Northeast (minus the park). Vermont, New Hampshire, and Maine. You might luck into a powder day here and there, but most days it’s hard, crunchy corduroy. That’s where this board shines.
The edge hold is unreal. It feels like Velcro to the snow, especially at speed. On bumpy, firm conditions, it holds a line with confidence and never feels sketchy when you’re moving fast and things get chattery.
It’s responsive, and inspires confidence when conditions are less than ideal. Which, let’s be honest, is most days out here.
One knock: the topsheet dings pretty easily. Purely cosmetic, but worth mentioning if you’re hard on gear or ride with a crew that stacks boards.
If you’re riding the East Coast and want one board that can handle 90% of what winter throws at you, this one’s earned its place in my setup.

The Classic Ski Lodge (It belongs here)
Free
This might feel odd in a “Gear We Use” section, but it belongs here.
We have to show some love, and pay homage to the old school ski lodge.
The kind of place that encourages you to pack your own lunch, drop all your shit on a table, and claim it as home base for the entire day.
Your crew knows where to find you. Your kids know where to regroup.
Nobody’s hovering. Nobody’s rushing you out.
Sure, it probably hasn’t seen fresh paint in 20 years.
It could absolutely use a deep clean. But that’s not why we love these places.
We love them because they come from a time when your skill level didn’t matter, your gear didn’t matter, and half the people on the hill were skiing in jeans.
That’s pretty awesome to me.
It’s a reminder that the experience has always mattered more than the setup.
Nothing like crushing a free soggy PBJ you made 6 hours ago in an old school lodge.

Vantopia Vans Dinette Kit, $8,950
We built out our van using a Vantopia Vans kit, and the dinette option has been one of our favorite decisions.
At night, it’s just about the size of a queen bed. During the day, it transforms into a seating area, kitchen hangout, or office space.
You get the best of both worlds without committing your entire interior to a single use.
That’s really the goal inside any rig: multiple uses from one item.
The dinette easily shifts from a cozy place to sit and eat, to a functional workspace, and then into a full bed, while still maximizing storage underneath.
Nothing feels wasted, and nothing feels overly complicated.
Designed to work seamlessly within a modular system, it keeps vanlife simple, flexible, and genuinely enjoyable; whether you’re working, cooking, hanging out, or crashing for the night.
If you’re trying to balance comfort, function, and space without overbuilding your van, this setup nails it.

DMOS Stealth Shovel + Mount
Shovel: $159
Mount: $189
Shovel MSRP: $159
Mount MSRP: $189
Material: 6061 & 6063 Aluminum
Much like traction boards, a solid shovel is non-negotiable if you’re running a front wheel-drive rig and chasing snow, or sand.
Yes, it’s a little on the pricey side. But having a shovel that can handle wet, heavy, icy New England snow and still collapse down to about the size of a magazine is worth it.
If you vanlife, or spend any real time in your rig, you already know: saving space is everything.
I’ve beaten the living hell out of this shovel, and you’d never know it by looking at it. It’s part sledgehammer, part collapsible shovel, and it loves putting in work! You know Vail doesn't plow the free parking lots well.
The mount holds it perfectly on the outside of the van on a MOLLE panel, keeping it accessible without eating interior space.
One thing to keep an eye on if you leave it outside full-time: the push pins can rust. One set of mine got pretty rough. A little bike chain lube (Muc-Off) fixed it for now, but I’ll eventually order replacement pins.
This is one of those tools you hope you don’t need often, but when you do, you’ll be very glad you didn’t cheap out.

RigStrips SnoStrip | Magnetic, $49.95
MSRP: $49.95
First season using this and both my van and my snowboard rails are stoked.
I was always Team Lean-Your-Board-on-the-Rig (usually the rearview mirror)… which meant the board fell over most of the time.
The SnoStrip completely fixes that problem. Saves your rails, and your paint on your rig.
I’m running the magnetic version, but they also make other options; adhesive mount and a suction-cup lock-on.
It works for snowboards, skis, and poles, and keeps everything right where you want it while you’re changing boots, gearing up, or hanging out.
This is one of those small pieces of gear that just makes life easier, especially if you’ve got a crew rolling in one vehicle or you’re hanging in the parking lot for post-lap après.
Simple. Smart. And way better than picking your board up off the ground for the tenth time.

Stio Skyrider Men's Fully Waterproof Jacket, $349
MSRP: $349
Build: Fully waterproof · Durable · Fashionable
The color is what pulled me in first, and I still love it. It stands out in a sea of grays, blues, and neon brights without being loud. Simple, clean, and different.
Beyond looks, the quality is legit. The fabric feels durable without being stiff, and it’s fully waterproof, exactly what you want for New England weather that can change on a dime.
The jacket has a lot of pockets (maybe too many, but I’m not complaining), and all the zippers are easy to use. I haven’t snagged a single one yet, whether I’m fumbling on the lift or moving around the van.
The pit zips work well, and the fixed, helmet-compatible hood with front and peripheral adjustments is a must have out here. Wind, sideways snow, freezing rain, this hood does its job.

Espar Airtronic Gasoline 12V Heater, $2,615.96
MSRP: $2,615.96
Controller: EasyStart Pro
This thing is what makes cold weather vanlife actually doable in the Northeast. Vermont, New Hampshire, and Maine.
When temps drop and mornings hurt, the Espar turns the van into a warm, livable space instead of a rolling refrigerator.
It’s truly set it and forget it, or fire it up only when you need it. Either way, it’s consistent, efficient, and does exactly what it’s supposed to do.
For winter camping, this is a must have.
One of the biggest reasons I went with the Espar is its ability to run reliably at higher elevations.
If you plan to extend your season, or actually enjoy winter camping this heater is a must.

KLIM Resistor Heated Gloves, $299
These were a gift from a friend, and wow… heated gloves are next level.
Full disclosure: I would never buy heated gloves specifically for snowboarding. That feels like a sign of weakness.
That said… these things are designed for snowmobiling in brutal cold at high speeds, so they’re wildly overqualified for chairlifts and resort laps.
And yes, I absolutely love cranking them to high heat while standing in the lift line or riding the chair. I now know what owning a second home in Aspen must feel like.
Beyond the heat, they’re legit gloves. The GORE-TEX keeps things dry, the 3M insulation does its job, and they feel well built and durable.
Are they necessary? No.
Do I enjoy them way more than I expected? 100%.
Sometimes weakness feels… pretty damn good.

Diamond Tire Chains (set of two), $190
Tire Chains (Front-Wheel Drive Reality)
MSRP: $190
If you’re chasing powder in a front wheel drive vehicle, tire chains aren’t optional, they’re essential.
Not everyone runs studded tires. And even if you do, there are plenty of mountain roads where chains are required no matter what’s on your rig.
Having a set onboard means you don’t turn around or wait out the storm, you keep going.
Chains are also your best friend when the storm just ended and the resort parking lot hasn’t been plowed yet.
With weight in the rear and power up front, chains can be the difference between getting where you’re goingor spending the night on the side of the road.
They don’t get used often, but when you need them, you really need them.
Tossing a set in your rig is cheap insurance for winter travel and powder chasing.
Get a pair for your kit! Always check your owners manual first. I also like Alpha Trax Tire Chains too.

Smith 4D Mag Ski & Snowboard Goggle, $378
MSRP: $378 (varies by lens)
Tech: Widest Field of View · Two Lenses
The Smith 4D delivers the widest field of view and some of the sharpest optics I’ve ever ridden. The ability to read terrain is noticeably better when wearing these. I absolutely love them.
The helmet integration with my Smith lid is seamless. No gaper gap (aka Jerry gap) here. Everything lines up the way it should, stays comfortable all day, and never feels bulky.
The included second lens makes this a perfect one-two combo. Bluebird days are covered, and the alternate lens handles those classic New England flat-light, gray.
They’re not cheap, but when visibility matters, these earn their place in my kit without question.
P.S. Buy lenses for the conditions you ride most, not for what matches your kit.

MAXTRAX MKII Traction Boards, $269.99
MSRP: $269.99
Material: UV-stabilized, reinforced nylon
Let’s be honest, most overlanders (especially the 4x4 crowd) rarely use their traction boards. They mostly just look great bolted to the rig.
Vanlifers? Different story.
If you’re running a front-wheel-drive van; all the power up front and all the weight in the back, traction boards aren’t optional, especially if you chase winter activities. We need these things to survive.
I’ve gone the cheap route before. Those boards lasted maybe 2–3 parking-lot rescues before they were toast.
Lesson learned: quality absolutely matters when it comes to traction boards.
MAXTRAX. They’re tough, reliable, and built to be used over and over again without turning into plastic shrapnel. Snow, slush, icy lots, they’ve pulled me out more times than I’d like to admit.
So whether you just want to complete the look of your rig or you’re tired of getting stuck in three inches of snow outside the trailhead, we’d recommend MAXTRAX all day long.
Sometimes the best gear is the stuff you hope you won’t need, but you’re stoked you have when you do.

Nidecker Kita Men’s Snowboard Boot, $419.95
MSRP: $419.95
Fit & Feel: Dual BOA® · Stiff · Responsive
All-day resort comfort is immediately noticeable with the Kita.
This is one of those boots you forget about once you’re riding, which is exactly what you want.
I’m notorious for cranking my boots way too tight, and the Dual-Dial BOA® system absolutely allows for that.
The dual dial also allows you to get the fit exactly how you want it, top to bottom, without pressure points or hot spots.
What really stands out (besides comfort) is the connection to the board. It’s obvious, direct! Especially when you’re riding fast or pushing edges on firm conditions. I like feeling locked in, and these deliver.
They’re also easy on and easy off, which matters more than people admit, especially cold mornings, long days, or when you’re half in the van and half in the parking lot.
If you want a stiff, responsive boot that stays comfortable all day and keeps you feeling connected, the Kita is it.

Nidecker Carbon Supermatic® Bindings, $529.95
MSRP: $529.95
Tech: Supermatic® · Pro-Stiff · Highly Responsive
No more waiting around for someone to strap in.
These speed entry bindings make life easy, whether you’re strapping in as you ride off the lift or just stopping for a second to slide your foot in.
Once you get the motion dialed, it’s fast, intuitive, and honestly hard to go back to traditional straps.
*If you’re running size 12+ boots, it can be a little tricky at first, but it’s absolutely doable. There’s a short learning curve, and then it clicks.
What really stands out is the stiffness and power transfer. These bindings drive edges incredibly well and feel solid at speed all over the resort.
They are a bit on the heavy side, but for me the tech payoff is worth it. And let’s be real, the lift chair is doing all the work.
