Demon Snow Wrist Guard

Demon Snow Wrist Guard

Rating for this product: 5 December 5, 2010

When you're ripping your gloves off and on half the time on the snow, it becomes obvious really quickly why you might want snowboard-specific wrist guards. It's the little things that make you lose time on the snow. I have a slightly older model but they designed the wrist curvature really well so that it's not such a PITA to do such things. :)

Celtek Kaya Glove - Women's

Celtek Kaya Glove - Women's

Rating for this product: 5 December 5, 2010

I actually don't have this model but a similar one from last season that I got at a bigtime discount. the materials are really interesting and different -- it's hard to explain but the shiny plastic stuff is really exciting! and this stuff doesn't lose out on quality. I am not against the bigger sports companies doing cool stuff that is high tech, as I love my Nike snowboarding pants, but it is really important to have indpedenent rider-owned core stuff as well like Celtek--however, the core stuff has to be high quality and deliver the goods. otherwise it's a tokenism thing.
and celtek is really well made. i'm sure you might see a features list on here, and it's like how people bashed the mac when it came out because it cost a little more and less things than a windows machine. well it's not just about a list of features, right, after a certain point? celtek gloves have soul and it's somehow important because aside from your board and boots you are really dependent on your gloves on the mountain.

Burton AK Glacier Softshell Jacket - Women's - 09/10

Rating for this product: 5 December 3, 2010

I Love this jacket! I got it on sale at my snowboard shop last season. I was surprised at how warm it was though if you layer properly--it's held up through the winter, although I was fine with it on the June snow at Mammoth.

the silhouette's a little neat, very sleep like some 1990s club girl but not dated at all. I like the sleeves too, there's something nice and clean about the lines. i never had issues with the lack of vents. I can't remember if this has goretex or not... it keeps me pretty dry!

the thing about fit that's hard is that everybody has a differently shaped head. and mine is really really really round, almost like a basketball, so it's tough to say. so i'm judging only from the photograph but that's so cool. it's like they are illustrating the birth of the universe.

Sessions Division Pant - Women's

Sessions Division Pant - Women's

Rating for this product: 5 November 27, 2010

i don't get women who are obsessed with tight snowboarding pants. no matter what you're going to look like you have more junk in your trunk because it's snowboarding. plus if you can't fully bend down and over you're going to look like one of those snowboarder girlfriends out there, with your butt sticking out all funny and obsessed with ending the day at 2pm and flirting too much with the bartender. dude.

i had these without the suspenders, i got the XS, they're fine. even with butt padding i still don't have a bunda though, so i don't know. what do you want? do you want to snowboard or do you want to try to look like one of those creep hollywood starlet chicks? this is snowboarding, not a weekend spa treatment.

just teasing. these were good pants. i liked them. they came in neon which goes well with my ultra dark skin tone. even in the bright colors i was able to zip far far away very quickly from any potentially troublemaking jealous snowboarder girlfreinds out to get me. great stuff.

plus you get warm fuzzy feelings because they used to sponsor tim brauch who was one of the greatest skateboarders that ever lived.

i'm pretty sure that the boys' snowboard lines are the pirate booty treasure in every product design department at all the snowboarding companies around the world. i hope people don't get too desperate, like pulling wedgies on other designers. but this seems to be where the designers are having the most fun. i wish i could demo these boards and know how they ride, but what the hell, it's the internet. i'm going by images. these have good reputations.

BEST snowboarding pants for women

686 Smarty Original Cargo Pant - Women's

686 Smarty Original Cargo Pant - Women's

Rating for this product: 5 November 27, 2010

I got these on sale and I'm a beginner, but these smarty cargo pants are the best. There's something weird about the liner, I can't explain it, but know how snowboard boots are obsessive about their liners? it's like, these pants are obsessive about it too. they attach at the top, which is really really really helpful.

they are really nice for any bus rides in like the snowbomb bus to Tahoe, you can just zip out of them after riding. Other nice touches are the little cute wrench that comes in the ankle pocket. and i appreciated that they didn't insult my intelligence by scarfing on the cool details like that for the XS size, which I bought last winter. usually when you're a chick, you are scrambling for sloppy seconds. you expect less than the best.

I dunno if this version has it, but it was soooooooooo cool to have the boa feature in the pants. now i have double boas though but still. i'm weird. these are product design masterpieces.

Burton Lexa EST Snowboard Binding - Women's

Rating for this product: 5 November 27, 2010

i just started snowboarding last year (November 2009) and it was great to have EST. I guess they might spoil me but it was really convenient being able to change the angles quickly and then the stance width too. it's like ok when you're in a warm place at the bottom of the mountain but when you're at the top and ready for a long run, all the little things can drive you crazy.

sometimes a cowgirl needs to adjust her spread really quickly, the horse might be bigger, wider who knows, but as someone who truly sucks at using screwdrivers to screw, especially in windy locations, it's nice to have something easy to use. there are fewer ways to lose screws too. thanks for helping the developmentally disabled!

GREAT COLORS

Vans Encore Snowboard Boot - Women's

Vans Encore Snowboard Boot - Women's

Rating for this product: 5 November 27, 2010

wow!!! women's snowboard boots come in loud colors? that's so rad! i got these last year and the boa was sooooo nice. i'm only sad because i got so picky i had to graduate to a double boa. maybe there's a vans double boa version. i'm so confused because vans is a skate company, but none of the other boots with lace ups could handle my weird legs. i guess these took it like a man.

if you're a chick shopping you have to be really really really really really aware and not let people talk you into getting boots that are too comfortable or where you don't feel a little pain. otherwise if you get boots that don't hold up you'll just be one of those lame women trailing the crew and saying lame stuff like "that girl's a 5 out of a 10" and doing half-assed write-ups in scenester magazines instead of going all out and making a pile of dough to pay for your snowboarder boyfriend's artificial knees.

great stuff here!

pretty much the best women's boot i encountered of 2009

DC Mora Snowboard Boot - Women's

DC Mora Snowboard Boot - Women's

Rating for this product: 5 November 27, 2010

if you see other women's snowboard boots and they insinuate ANYTHING about comfort, and feel too good in the store, RUN the other way. they suck. or they are probably just a response to a market in which chicks just go snowboarding once and refuse to spend any decent money on good boots.

it makes product managers cry. however, i dunno, i'm so weirded out, how did DC do this? i think of them as a skate company. they made the best snowboard boots of 2009 or 2010.

i got these right when squaw valley was having its last weekend. they are so @#$@#$ awesome. as my feet are weird, and heel lift is a huge problem for me, it's like, all these things about turns that people gave advice on suddenly worked. i was no longer struggling. i was no longer a pixies song waiting for my man. there was world peace.

the double boa is essential, one isn't enough. maybe it's like having one snowboard but two feet instead of one. it's really nice for ensuring great flex. and i can't even do anything yet. hopefully they will make a triple boa in the future.

Burton GTwin Snowboard - Women's - 08/09

Rating for this product: 5 November 27, 2010

i'm just a beginner but this is my board and it's great. I wish I'd gotten the colors in thep hotograph. not only must the board be good, but It's SO important that the graphics on your board aren't offensively bland, and unfortunately women aren't into buying stuff that's really cool and interesting, but this was one of the rare women's boards that aren't offensively boring. it's like burton is saying, "you aren't this half-@ssed woman who will spend all her time promoting your music DJ boyfriend's career, you're going to make music yourself."

don't choose boards because of the graphics, but don't choose offensively bland and boring women's snowboarding designs because they will make you not believe in living life. also the graphic designers probably get really depressed every time they have to hold back when they're stuck doing the women's boards.

yeah!!! great board. natasha rules.
