Each day this week we’ll be releasing a mini episode with an entrepreneur who is making specialty gear for ice climbers.
🎙Today we chat with Kyle Siegel, the Founder of Raide, which makes gear that supports efficient human-powered movement in the mountains. Their first major drop is the LF 40L which may be the perfect backcountry skiing pack, but which I also think works well as an ice cragging or multi-pitch pack.
Kyle is a jack of all trades, having done hardcore engineering at places like SpaceX, learned design and development at The North Face and Db, and built tech products to boot.

Hear more about the why and how of Raide in today’s episode.
