Burton Malolo Snowboard    Read other reviews of this product
 
Far better than the Fish for resort riding in powder.   05-28-08   

When you are exchanging between hard pack and powder, this is a far better choice than the fish. The Malolo is really fun in the trees, steeps, chutes, and cooks hard pack like America's Top Chef. Really cannot go wrong riding this in any condition. If you are looking for a powder board this is by far my favorite to ride. I own two of them if that tells you anything. Try one out as a demo sometime or borrow one from a friend, this board will make you a believer in death to rear leg burn.

Smith Phenom Spherical Series Goggles - Mirror Lens    This product is no longer available
 
With the new Porex Filter lens these rock!   05-28-08   

I used to have some fogging issues with these. Now with the new lens, these are great goggles in any condition. They have a great peripheral vision in them, and you can really see every line while you are up top. Even good on low visibility days, which is important so you don't go flying off something unexpected. Great goggle, highly recommended.

Oakley Crowbar Goggles - Iridium Lens    Read other reviews of this product
 
Persimmon lens great for flat light.   05-28-08   

These seem to get a bit wet, and to keep them from fogging, I had to poke out the foam in the bottom vents. But overall, the visual perspective in them is fantastic, they are super comfy on your face, and the foam seems to hold up a lot better than most goggle foam. Really a great goggle, they just need to make them vent better.

Burton Ion Snowboard Boot - Men's     Read other reviews of this product
 
88 days on these, they are the best boot ever!   05-28-08   

These boots have the best fit, stiffest but most comfortable lateral flex, but still let you tweak it side to side. The Imprint 4 liner is so comfortable and warm, you forget you are even in a stiff boot. I have ridden them on pow days, hard pack, steeps and jumps and they excelled in all these conditions. The speedzone laces do wear out, have had to replace a few, but over all, these are the best boots I have ever owned. Sold on these for life!
