Out of Collective Podcast – E26 – The Hidden Lines w/ Adam Kruszyna

This week we’re joined by Adam Kruszyna, the skier behind The Hidden Lines and the unofficial king of finding world-class terrain right in his own backyard. Adam’s made a name chasing the zones everyone else overlooks—quiet ridgelines, secret couloirs, and the kind of lines you only find when you’re willing to explore past the obvious.

We talk scouting missions, home-range creativity, and why some of the best skiing on earth is often just over the next ridge. If you love discovering new terrain, pushing deeper into your local mountains, or geeking out on maps and micro-missions, this episode is pure fuel.

Deuter – With packs and bags for any size adventure, find yourself and your ideal backpack in the outdoors with Deuter.

Patagonia – Over the past 13 years, Patagonia’s PowSlayer series has earned a near mythical status among those seeking the steepest, deepest powder in the biggest mountains.

These are the ones who let their tracks do the talking, who start before sunrise and leave behind lines as bold as they are nameless.

The new PowSlayer Freeride Kit is built for those riders.

Kit Ethos:

Each piece of the PowSlayer Freeride Kit has been designed, patterned and tested together to ensure they all interact seamlessly, allowing us to align every pocket, cuff, hood and feature in a way that supports mobility, easy adjustments and unfettered accessibility. 

The Skintrack: 

Adaptable, always-on layers for efficient movement during cold mornings, hefty climbs and stop-and-go moments, especially in variable weather. 

The Transition: 

Highly packable, easily deployable warmth and weather protection for chilly changeovers, hands-on snowpack evaluation or lunch breaks on the summit. 

The Descent: 

Lightweight protection for unfettered mobility and ultimate white-room management on deep, high-speed descents in stormy weather and demanding terrain.  

“Freeride” Collection Description: 

Our backcountry freeride gear is built for those who see the mountains as a steep, wildly deep canvas for exploration and creativity, combining mobility and breathability on the skintrack and unrelenting protection through the rowdiest descents.
