Story

Growing up skiing on the 14,179ft high volcanic Mt. Shasta, Forrest was instilled with an early appreciation for adventure. Equipped with a ski racing background, he often found solace in steep technical terrain. In true Californian form, he gently removes all conscious expectations of a journey and lets the odyssey take over. 

Why CAST?

It’s a no brainer, when you want the ski ability of a pivot and the binding confidence of an alpine binding deep in the backcountry. Where losing a ski or pre releasing isn’t an option.
