EVOC

If you are going skiing for a longer period of time and no longer transport your ski equipment in your (own) car, a ski bag is essential. At the very latest, if you want to take your skis with you on the plane, you need a sturdy one. A good ski bag is not just for protecting your skis from damage.

As every year, PowderGuide is once again reporting on the new products from our partners at Ispo 2017 with a slight delay. Some of the articles have already been mentioned in the other ISPO reports, but here we will once again explicitly cover the ISPO highlights from our partners for the coming winter 2017/2018. The first part is about the products from Arc'teryx, Bergans, Evoc, Fritschi, FRM, G3, IAS and Julbo. Enjoy reading and find out about highly functional ski clothing, new ski touring bindings, ski touring boots specially adapted for women, backpacks that are particularly comfortable to wear, new topo maps for freeriding, innovative skis, women's ski goggles and an avalanche backpack that can do more than just inflate balloons.

We were at ISPO in Munich again this year and have already reported on the latest innovations in skis, safety equipment, ski boots & ski bindings, snowboard equipment and clothing. As every year, we will also be presenting selected, interesting products from PowderGuide partners that we took a closer look at at ISPO. The second part of the partner news is about new airbag backpacks from ABS, the latest Fritschi pin binding, new skis from Scott, Line and Salomon, merino-mix underwear from Icebreaker, an Evoc touring backpack, an insulation jacket from Penguin and a helmet from Uvex

In the third part of our ISPO report, we present the new products in the textile sector. As we already saw last year, manufacturers are once again focusing on muted colors such as ochre and merlot. More and more companies are also attaching importance to ecological clothing and are using wool or recycled materials, for example.

The Freeride Guide has been available from EVOC for some time now. With the Blackline Edition, Evoc is launching a further developed model of this series onto the market. We took a closer look at this classic protector backpack and tested it for you.

With the Patrol 32, EVOC has a typical top-load backpack for extended adventures in the backcountry in its range. As robust and fully equipped as usual, it is a loyal companion not only in the ski area, but also on extended ski tours where you need to carry a lot of extra equipment.

With the Photo Scout, the bag and backpack specialist Evoc is expanding its photo series with an all-round backpack. In addition to the obligatory protective compartment for photo and video equipment, the Photo Scout is equipped with many features that are familiar and appreciated from Evoc's bike and snow backpacks.

An "environmentally conscious" expedition bag that can do a lot and gives pleasure for a long time...

As every year, PowderGuide is once again reporting on the new products from our partners at ISPO 2014. Some of the products have already been presented in the other articles, but in three parts we will once again go into detail about the new products from our partners. The first part is about new products from Mammut, Arc'teryx, G3, Evoc, Bergans and Diamir. Whether it's detailed ski mountaineering pants, light and heavy down clothing, various PinTech bindings or backpacks and ski clothing for ski touring, all the new products are well thought out and developed to a high standard. Enjoy reading and look forward to your next winter shopping trip...

One focus of ISPO reporting this year is, of course, the development of the market for safety and emergency equipment. The most important part of our multi-part ISPO special comes at the end: Here you'll find what's new in safety equipment.

For the 2013/2014 winter season, the makers of EVOC have decided to significantly expand their range of winter backpacks. For the first time, EVOC's winter sports line will now also include backpacks without back protectors - the Performance Backpacks. We briefly introduce you to the main new products from the EVOC snow department and have tested their first (real) touring backpack, the EVOC Patrol (40+5 liters) for you.

PowderGuide is very fortunate to work with many of the best and most respected mountain sports companies that produce high-quality freeride and touring equipment. In the partner special, we would therefore like to present or recommend one of our partners' top products for winter 2012/2013.
