This is really cute. It is a bit heavier than a typical snowboard jacket. The material is more durable feeling as well. I tried a couple different mediums in 686 coats for this season and they all seem to run baggy. I never really wear small jacket, but I could go small in this for a more fitted style. It really depends on your style and what kind of fit you like though. This is really comfortable and WARM!

these are good snowshoes, once you get them on. They are kinda tricky to get on with snowboard boots. once you get them on they are nice, got a good shape and cut for a women's stride. Check out Tubbs website to see what snowshoes size is best for your weight. that can really make a difference on a deep snow day

Taken this on the airplane. You can put ALL your snowboard gear in it. boots, board, bindings, snowboard clothes. It is not padded so that is a downside to flying with it. My cousin used it to hike mt hood instead of dragging her board up, used the strap and hiked up with it. durable zippers and material. Has been strapped to the top of a car and did fine also.

These snow shoes are fantastic. They are the best ones I have ever used and I have used a lot of different kinds. I do a ton of hiking in the snow, with my trusty snowboard on my back. these go up hill and downhill great, do well in hardpack and in powder. They never clank together when i am stepping, even when I am really tired and am walking like a dead person they still don't clank. they are very light weight and I never feel like I have snowshoes on. I wear these with my snowboard boots. They are so easy to take on and off and I have never once had them come off my foot like other snowshoes have. The snow does not get stuck and weigh these down. I really can not put into words how phenomenal these snowshoes really are. It is a total great package...from putting on, hiking around and taking off...amazingly great times!

Wow the concave on this board is a really aggressive concave. When you push hard into a turn the concave helps hold you in the board so well. The only thing that freaks me out when you take the turns fast is the wheels sliding and not me sliding off the board. It is great! You feel like you are part of the board and it is like you have your feet strapped to it, but you don't! If you like going fast and whipping hard turns. This is the board for you!

This boat kicks butt!! I took it down to lake Powell and toured all over and in canyons and everything. This has amazing handling and it has a better size cockpit for a women's shape. using the rudder on it this thing could turn on a dime. It has good bungees on it, I collected 45 pieces of trash in Powell and put them under the bungees as i found them. the dry storage is really good. I did not have a problem with any water coming into it at all. I had dry sacks but i do not know if i really needed them! This is a really quick boat also. My friends were in their perception Carolinas and I was cruising past them and would turn around and come back to them and then turn around and wizz past them. in choppy waters this performed awesome as well. It just flew through those white caps and waves. I never once felt unstable even with waves coming from the side hitting me.

I am on my 2nd year in a row in these bad boys and they are great. Size down a half size, i do a full size and just deal with a week of pain and after that they will fit like the best boots you have ever owned. They are a great mid stiff. Stiff enough for free riding craziness and soft enough to tweek out those nose grabs! Great to hike in and just an amazingly awesome boot! Female pros wear them, but you don't have to be pro to rock these. But you sure will feel pro in them.

The k2 luna was my first women's specific board. It is a great board. I spent many a utah powder days on this board, while it is not the most ideal powder board, it can be used. I spent many days in the park, learned rails on this as well. You can get going really fast on it and it has good pop as well. My sister now is the owner of this board and she loves it. It is responsive and will treat you well.

I demoed this board last week and it was super fun! You can set the stance back more than typical freestyle boards so if you want to just carve it up and get better control. The pop on this board is AMAZING! It is pretty light weight just like it says. It holds an edge really well at faster speeds. But I can not get over the amount of pop it had! You want a board with pop, get it! Color it up so the top sheet is unique to your own style!

These are the step down from the escapades. The straps are not as cushy, but if that is not something you mind and need to save a little cash, these are the way to go. The straps are adjustable with out screw drivers. So that is nice on days it is really cold and they are stiff and you need to lengthen them out. These ride really well and i do like how easily adjustable the gas pedal is on them.

This is a great park boot, medium stiffness so it rocks free-riding as well. They have beefed it up since its first season out. Not as light as they used to be, but they are still awesome. Their liners are amazing and you can heat mold it if you want. I prefer to let my feet mold my boots naturally. These boots hit the calves really well and they're just very comfortable boots! These really are super nice for hiking, I have done a lot of snowshoeing in these. Hiking does break them down faster, but like i said, they are very comfortable!

This is a GREAT pack! it is the perfect size for weekend trips. I have done solo weekend trips with this! The suspesion system is great and the hip belt is really comfortable. Make sure you measure your torso and get the right size for that. I had back surgery and this makes carrying a heavier load unnoticeable and distributes the weight very nicely over my back. It fits my tiny shoulders great as well. Love this!

I demoed a pair of these and they are quick! they do not get bogged down that the short tail helps you get down hill faster and less awkward. If you like to snowshoe on harder pack snow these would be GREAT. In heavier things the weight limit of 125 will factor in with not being able to stay on top of the snow. But a super fun less exhausting way to race or trek around.

This is a great jacket. the gore windstopper is amazing. I have never gotten wet when wearing this. I have taken it boarding, kayaking, hiking, climbing. It is not the most durable fabric to be taking climbing...it will rip on the rocks if you are scraping or dragging the coat on it. It is super warm. When i go night skiing my upper body is so toasty warm it is almost unreal to be that warm night skiing! Great coat, lots of compliments on the fit and shape of it.

these have an awesome fit right out of the box. They are great for bouldering and are very comfortable. It is nice they are all synthetic so you do not need to go through the painful break in time that the leathers need. Great gym climbing shoe. It does not much arch, but you can force it into an arch easily. The lace up system is ice, you can tighten select spots really easily. Great women's climbing shoes!

This has an interesting fit. A medium is what I would go with for myself and is what I wear in all outwear. The waist is perfect and the sides do not taper in, it has a straight cut. which would be great for layer underneath and not feel constrained in the armpit area of the jacket. If you were not layering something under it i think it would be a bit baggy for my taste, but I like my things more fitted. This is extremely comfortable though!

I like the lacing system on this. It is very easy to use. you tighten the top and lower half on different laces, so you can get that hand lace feel. The lace system has handles you pull and then you tuck them in on the site of the boot. Takes it really easy get a good pull on the lace. They are comfy and the have good heal hold. they are cushy and have a good flex for an all around boot.

I demoed this board and it was AWESOME! Everyone i see on the slopes love it! it is a very popular board this year! It was a very fun board to shred on. It is responsive and held an edge well for being a twin. My friends who have this board say it does great on rails and just love it!

The accents of leather just give this a little extra that other outwear does not have. I wear volcom in medium tops normally. This medium was a bit big and baggy on me. That might be the style they are going for. The fabric is really durable as well. I love the contrasting pattern to solid colors and leather. Great coat, very warm, I got really hot just having it on and not just hot from being so stylish!

These pants are soo hot. They fit true to other Volcom snowboard pant sizes. The legs run long, but that works for my long legs. They are so comfortable and let me tell you the suede is SOO steezy! You will love these! The suede is a warm material, so you will not get cold.

This board totally rocks! it is a stiffer twin tip, but that makes it super poppy off jumps. It does not loose it pop like other boards to. It a park board for sure, not good in powder, you can haul pretty fast on it, but it is not as responsive free riding as a directional board. It has great camber, not as much as some of the other nitro boards. But this is a great board to put in your quiver and will last you more than one season!

This is a nice change from Nalgene bottles. It does not have a way to clip it to a backpack. But it is nice because I put orange juice in it and then the next day cranberry juice and then water and all i did in between them all was rinse with hot water and none of the tastes passed into the next day. I like the water bottle top, keeps me from spilling it all over me. I like the cover on the top, I can let it roll around in my snowboard bum car and I know all the dirt on the floor does not get on where I put my mouth. If you have hot liquids in it it conducts the heat and can burn your hand, so use a coozie. Don't leave it in your car if it is going to freeze...it can explode. It never smells! I left water in it for 2 weeks and it still tasted fresh.

I tried these out and they are on order waiting to come in! They were amazing and lightweight. The way they are cut fits a women's stride great. The bindings are the best bindings on the snowshoe market, and you will never step into the snow and come out with out your snow shoe again! I do a lot of snowshoeing so how light weight they are is great! Pair these with some light weight Leki poles and you can be gone for hours upon hours exploring. If you don't go for these, go for one of the other Women’s Tubbs...you will love them and never want another snowshoe again!

I wear between a size 9-11 and I got this in a size 10 and it fits perfect! Great length, really comfortable and he movement in them is great. The material is not a still polyester like some other boardshorts. This is a great short you can wear in the water or causally.

These feel really great! They have a good length in them. the waist band is really comfortable. They are full length and fit well in the ankles also. They are not too thin and not too thick. they are perfect to wear under a mini skirt or dress and not feel like you are going to over heat!

This can cinch down to a very small cock pit. I have used it now in many different kayaks. It is a really good skirt, never got wet while I had it on. You can make is bubble up and so the water rushes off the sides and does not puddle up in your lap. has good stretch in the waist. never felt constrained by it.

I have been riding this board the past couple days and it has been extremely fun. I have been rocking the 151 and achieved the widest stance on this size of board I have ever ridden! The stance options are amazing on this board. This board feels stiff when holding it and trying to flex, but when you get strapped in you can yank the tip and tail up pretty good....the nose presses and tail presses will be so sick looking. With the amount of flex it has tip and tail it still is a stiff board. It has Tons of pop...holds an edge well. Does not get chattery. So you can bomb the slopes and not worry about loosing control. My First day on it was soft snow with sunny skies and i made the stance as wide as i could go and just buttered, jibbed and jumped around, later on in the day the clouds came in and made the snow firm and icy...still held a great edge and made the snow conditions still fun. The next day it had dumped almost 2 feet and rocked it in the pow pow all day. It floated well in the powder, responsive. It is great that the nose is flexy because it helps float it around in the powder. It pops off cliffs, little drops, rocks, snowy clumps. I got massive pop and air off these little snow clumps on the runs. This board is really a superb board, great all mountain board! 5 stars in my book!

love it, them these pants, love volcom. the pockets make your butt look really cute. I love how their jeans are a little thicker material. They fit pretty true to other volcoms, but it is a low ride so if you have a skinny waist and bigger hips, size up one for that.

These are great! They keep your feet warm with out needing a massively thick sock. Merino wool is just amazing and everyone should own head to toe merino wool. If it is a hot day these socks will keep you cool, cold days they will keep you warm. You will love these and end up wearing them daily

These are pretty cool. One of my mountain boarder friends had a pair of these he would wear while shredding the hills. He liked them because there are no chords to get tangled into and My main concern would be them falling off. He said his helmet helped hold them on, but they fit him pretty well. They did not fit my little head at all, but the concept is really cool. They just need to make a women's size or something!

If you like to butter, spin, jib....this is your board. You can size way down. The effective edge is nice and long so you get the same feel as riding your normal size board. I went from a 149 to a 142. It was the funnest board I have ever ridden. you go to spin off little hips and bumps and it is like you are on a skateboard in the air and when you land you are back on a snowboard. I can not wait until the snow falls so I can get back on it!

Getting out of those cold stiff boots and your toes are a little numb, there is fresh snow all over, slide your foot into these and OH MAN! they are amazing! your feet stay dry running back to the lodge in the snow, tromping around and driving down the canyons. These will keep your feet toasty warm. They are the best feeling after a long day of shredding.

I just put these pants on and they are awesome!! I wear medium in everything and the mediums fit me so great. They are super fitted so if you are huge into layering go a size up. But if you really want to look awesome just et a great baselayer and wear the fitted size! They are movable and you don't feel all stiff in these. I have long legs and the mediums have a great length for me. You can make these flair out even more than the picture shows! The wine plaid looks so much prettier in person also. Really rich wine and magenta. This is a must have pant!! I got a tn of compliments on these just wearing them around the office!

These gloves would be great for so many things. I use liners for cold days running, put them under my soft shell and pipe gloves. The fit
