What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying:"I love how the Guide Shell combines top-tier waterproofing with a lightweight, all-mountain design. The 15K waterproof rating keeps me dry through storm days, while the zippered vents dump excess heat when I’m working hard in the backcountry. The ergonomic hood, removable powder skirt, and Lycra wrist gaiters provide extra protection, making this shell an essential for everything from park laps to deep powder runs."From park sessions to backcountry lines, the Guide Shell is built for those who ride it all. Inspired by the technical performance of Airblaster’s Beast Series, this shell delivers premium protection with 15K waterproofing, 10K breathability, and fully sealed seams to keep moisture out and comfort in. The mid-baggy fit allows for unrestricted movement, whether we're sending cliffs or styling out grabs. Designed with practical features for all-day riding, the Guide Shell includes an ergonomic three-way adjustable hood, zippered underarm vents for airflow control, and a removable powder skirt to seal out deep snow. Dual-entry hand pockets, a mesh-lined goggle pocket, and a dedicated pass pocket add convenience, while the eco-friendly construction helps minimize our footprint on the mountains we love.
