First up – the skis. We’re giving away a pair of Black Diamond’s brand spankin’ new Impulse 98 skis, which are worth a whopping £600. 

These punchy, planted, and playful all-rounders are designed for adventures inbounds and beyond the ropes.

The pre-preg fibreglass layup and poplar wood core are all expertly crafted in Austria, so you know the construction means business. With a versatile 98mm waist, reasonable tip and tail rocker, traditional camber underfoot and full ABS sidewalls, they’re super easy to turn yet solid enough underfoot to really push through when conditions get tricky. Combine this with the mellow flex and accessible 18m turn radius (at 182cm) and you’re looking at a sweet ski that’s ideal for both aspiring and existing freeriders looking to push their game. 

Up next we’ve got Black Diamond’s Guide Avy Safety Set – worth £440. 

Black Diamond want to gear you for safe backcountry adventures with a wicked snow safety bundle that includes the holy trinity of ski touring, aka the Guide BT transceiver, Evac 7 shovel and Quickdraw Pro 320 probe. 

This is seriously top tech kit designed to help you get avy savvy. All you got to do is enter to win… then practice, practice, practice. 

Seal the Black Diamond deal with this multi-talented 25in ski strap, worth a fancy fiver. 

This tough and stretchy rubber ski strap not only co-ordinates brilliantly with the graphics on the Impulse skis, it does a fine job of keeping them together for slick transportation, and it comes in handy for a whole heap of other purposes like dealing with skins that don’t stick, adjustable poles that won’t stay locked in place, and keeping boots together when the buckles have busted. 

It doesn’t matter whether you’re a newbie tourer or experienced backcountry rider, if you’ve got your eyes on the backcountry prize this winter, this comp is for you!
