As a pioneer in backcountry snow packs and the global leader in gloves for over 20 years, Dakine is excited to welcome three new riders to its Snowboard Accessories Team for Winter 2018/19.

The men’s Phantom Glove and Heli Pro 24L pack will be worn by Bryan Fox, co-founder of the Drink Water movement, award-winning filmmaker and all-around ripper. Kazu Kokubo, currently one of the best backcountry riders in the world and a consecutive gold medalist in the US Open Halfpipe plus an Olympic representative for Japan in two winter games, will rock the Excursion Glove as his chosen model along with the Poacher RAS 26L pack.
