They only have one size =(. What BristolMTBoarder said is completly right but you may want to find another website or a local snowboard shop that still maybe carring these in the back (if you are super lucky)So unless your daughter is a US 6-9, your out of luck on this website.
Hope you do find a pair of amazing bindings

"A MODERN STYLED CYLINDRICAL GOGGLE THAT FITS MOST FACES." SPYOPTIC.com
That means that the peripheral on these is average with other goggles because cylindrical is kind of the industry standard for all goggles (least in the past).
If your looking for more peripheral, like you can't even see the goggles you are wearing, I would suggest looking for Spherical Lenses, ELECTRIC EG1s or EG2, and from spy APOLLO, SOLDIER, BIAS. I acctually haven't riden with Spy's since I was a little grom, SO hopefully i gearhead will stop by here and give you more help.
Till then, Hope this helps.

Skullcandy Asym Earbud Headphone

"Iphones have a 3.5 mm TRRS connector for the headphones located on the top left corner of the device.[52] The headphone socket on the original iPhone is recessed into the casing, making it incompatible with most headsets without the use of an adapter." Wiki.
The input for this headphone is 3.5mm gold-plated plug, which means, no. Sorry but the O. Iphone will not work with these headphones.
Its hard to find headphones that Apple doesn't make that companies still make to work with the O. Iphone. My suggestions I can give are"
To upgrade your phone when you can and then finding proper headphones won't be a problem.
OR
"There are options like the Belkin Headphone Adapter for iPhone (US$10.95) which allow you to use any standard headphones with a 3.5mm plug with iPhone, but they dont have the aforementioned microphone option." Jason D. O'Grady
Hope you do find some headphones

Von Zipper Dojo Goggle

These will definitly fit a big head (I should know, I have a giant head).
And it should fit over (if you in fact do ride with) your helmet, unless it is so big it doubles your head, in that case i suggest buying a new helmet.
But YES, these will fit a bigger head
PS, these have the elastic plastic (i dunno what it is called)on the strap which makes it a great for keep them in place once you get them on your head but a GIANT PAIN to adjust the size on the go. So make sure you adjust it inside when you have time, cause it is a pain when your hands are freezing outside and your trying to adjust it from beanie size to helmet size but you just can't seem to do it CAUSE ITS JUST SO DAMN COLD.

OK both those dudes are LIEING. LET THE RECORD SHOW FOR THE LAST AND FINAL TIME.
!!!THESE ARE KIDS GLOVES!!!
I have asked 3 different gear heads and they asure me that the sizing is correct and that these are in fact kids gloves and should not be in the adult section. So if you think differently, ask one of them or buy them and give a picture of how large your hand is and how large the mitten is.
SO yes, these are for kids and are kids mittens. So Shush!

Electric EG2 Lens

Notta one. Sorry amigo. These don't even come close to fire lenses. As sick as electric is, I would suggest a different brand if your are looking for goggles with replacment lenses that come in fire. Oakley obviously, but VZ does a good job too. If you are looking for that mirror effect, none of these do that either. BUT if you have to get one that looks like it, Yello/silver chrome, imho, is the the closest in a race it doesn't even qualify for. Seriously

Electric EGK Goggle

This goggle was made for you! I have a giant head/face and know for a fact... these don't fit me ='( Why do all the cool frames have to be for smaller faces? I suggest these for smaller faces and for looking steeze on the mountain. If you are looking for a frame with more prefireal (cant spell sorry) But will have a bigger frame, anything with a "s" at the end of it means its spherical.
In the end those these are great for you! Hope you rock them well!
(As always recommended though, goggles are expensive, important, equipment. I would go check out a local snowboard shop and try on different type and different brands to make sure you absolutly love what you are buying. "If you buy gear that gets you stoked, you'll be stoked to ride')

Bronze chrome or just bronze?
Either way those would be perfect for midday riding. Bronze lenses do suck around closing time cause the flight light is pretty bad (just a heads up) BUT What is one hour of discomfort compared to all day of looking good?
Bronze will let in more light then Bronze chrome but wont be reflective.
(I am sorry if i didnt make it clear. You can also go to (I couldnt find it on the Spyoptical.com site) )http://www.electricvisual.com/goggle-technical-information/
That is a great place to show what lense colors go great with what type of situation
It tells you about VLT (Visual Light transmittance) And gives all the right information about picking out the lense color your looking for

Coal Frena Solid Beanie
November 12, 2009
yes it will. welll... Maybe it wont for you since there will be some bunching at the top. Im Not sure how big this beanie is on a small head, i personally have a gigantic head and it fit under my gigantic helmet... but since my head is so big, the beanie doesnt bunch at the top much, for a smaller head... I would try it (you can always return it if u buy it off dogfunk) But my gues.. Yes but it will either have bunching of the at the top between the helmet and the beanie, or the beanie will almost be pulled down over your eyes
I would personally look for a smaller beanie.

My friend rides these and tells me that you can email ride and they'll send you some new ones with proof of purchase. (least thats what he says)
But i am sure that your local snowboard shop carries extras and we'll replace them for free if they do. (The BC surf and sport, The Click, and Satallite havee alldone that for bindings for me that i didnt even buy there) the snowboard community is awesome when it comes to helping out.

K2 Cinch CTS Snowboard Binding

Nope. These bindings are stiffer and ment for all mountain casual riding. You want a binding with a softer flex that will help you get all buttery smooth to impress the strangers and snow bunnies that you will probably never see again =). (plus they are heavier which is no bueno in the parko)
Trying checking out the Flux Titan RK for a binding in the same price range.

Burton Custom Snowboard Binding
November 5, 2009
That would look sick for sure!
And yes bindings are super important! crappy bindings make for a crappy day. If you are riding 40 or less days though these would be perfect for you in my opinion. But if you ride hard and often, it is worth the extra bucks to upgrade and get a binding that will last and take the punishment you dish out. I own burton triads and even though they are more expensive, they sucked.. tow strap fell off, screws (including base plates) came loose all the time and the metal that kept my binding at a lean tore through the plastic and is no permentally set on the no lean.
My point is that bindings are important and expensive isnt always better either.
In the end, If you are more of a casual rider these would be perfect for you. If you are a park junky, upgrade
(Read the other comment too. It is spot on)

They're pretty light and compete with the ride bindings forsure.

I have no idea if your asking for dudes or dudettes but... i am a dude i wear a size 12 and have the L/XL size and that is perfect for me. If your a dude i would go with the L/XL n o question. If your a girl I would try the M/L first cause you can costumize it like all bindings to have the toe strap longer. (But obviously i recommend going to your local snowboard shop first (bring a boot and ask for a M/L and a L/XL in the color you want and see which fits better)
This bindings has been doing well for the few days i have riden on it and strongly recommend it too.

I wear an 11-12 size shoe depending on the brand. Would I want a wide board like the legacy? Are there also other boards I should be looking at that are all mountain boards that are wide? I just moved to Steamboat so i would like A board that can handle beginner back country and intermidate park riding (can handle switch 540's and reg 720's off mid-sized jumps, butters on boxes and boardslides and presses on hand rails)Is this the board for me?

I decided that I love these goggles enough to buy them for how awesome they look. So I have one more question before I put $140 down on a new pair of goggles...I am buying these for couldy days and was wondering how well the smokey pink did compared to H.I. persimmon or blue iridium? I've never worn any of these colors before and I know that lense color is almost all opinionated but! in general which lenses work best for partly-cloudy/cloudy/snowy days?

I was just wondering...
Are the love in frames with the pink smoke a girls frame? Cause personally I think they look awesome but I really don't want to have that awkward conversation on the hill with random girls that say, (awsuming that the are tourists) "LIKE! OMG we have the same goggles! Aren't they just the cutests?" Then I would be thinking... "Man this is super awkward... why does this tourist/poser/newbie have the same frames as me?" Don't get me wrong, I don't h8 random tourist girls, I just don't want my friends baggin on me all day (yes they r that mean and shallow)
Oh and are the feenoms in general a super popular goggle? I see that everyone loves them but i don't want to buy a pair then find out everyone has the same thing. I wanted to buy VZ cause it seemed a little more low-key then Oakley, Smith, Dragon and so on. (obviously I'm super-ficial... I know the specs rock & i should care about that..but I can't help wanting to stand out too)
Thanks for the help
