Kevin Backstrom's snowboard setup
DEELUXE Aeris – Kevin Backstrom's signature boot
Deeluxe Aeris 2026 - Snowboard-Boot
With the goal of creating the ultimate all terrain boot–and one truly capable of meeting Kevin's needs–DEELUXE worked with Kevin to test out a slew of boots from the collection and identify his favorite features. They then mixed together all of these ingredients–and refined the recipe again and again–to develop his signature boot, the Aeris. The newest generation of the Aeris is equipped with a snow shield that protects the lower part of the boot from snow, ice, and moisture in order to keep your feet dry.
The Aeris turned out just as I imagined. It matches with any outerwear you’re rocking. I really enjoy this boot, it works for everything - it’s an amazing all around boot and I couldn’t be more stoked on how it turned out.

CAPiTA Mercury – Kevin Backstrom's favourite snowboard
CAPiTA Mercury 2026 Snowboard
The Mercury is your ticket to dominating every possible situation. This award-winning series is renowned for its remarkable all-terrain versatility, excelling in powder, kickers, side hits, and park laps. With this
board at your disposal, you won't need to obsessively check the weather report because it's ready to handle any condition and terrain you throw its way.
I like the Mercury because it works for pretty much everything. I ride it in the park also ride it in the backcountry, it gives me the stability I need and it’s really a board that I can rely on… It’s my favorite board to ride.

Union Atlas – Kevin Backstrom's favourite snowboard bindings
The all-mountain binding of choice for intermediate to advanced riders who demand power and precision across any terrain. With a responsive medium-stiff flex, the 2026 Union Atlas delivers explosive edge-to-edge control whether you're carving groomers, slashing powder, or charging steep lines in the backcountry. Designed, tested, and trusted by the best snowboarders in the world, the Atlas is built to perform when it matters most.
I really like the binding because it gives me the support I need when I’m riding and my angles are plus 15 on the front foot and negative 12 on the back.“

Beyond Medals snowwear and streetwear
Kevin Backstrom and Tor Lundström were among the elite of the international snowboard contest scene — until one evening turned everything upside down. The result: both were kicked off the Swedish national team. Instead of looking back, they refocused their attention on creative shredding and building Beyond Medals. A label that not only provides you with cool street and snowwear, but also with snowboard clips that focus on pure fun.
