Take your time looking for a good thin sock. These are great by the way. Warmer than they actually describe here, thats if you have the right sock/ski boot fit. If you can wear thick socks while skiing, then your boots are too big. A thin sock is key to getting a good fit. These socks are very nice!

Very fast. There response can be alittle overwhelming if your form is slightly off. They definately will help with progressing your skiing ability. I went from a Nordica Speedmachine 12 to these Langes which surely charge harder than no other. They didnt have all the fancy stuff like the Nordica or a Technica, but lets be serious.... its a boot. If you want an aggressive, hard charging boot, no extra gadgets or frills, look no further.

Oh! and be prepared to get thrown off your ass if your not on top of your game.

I have the 08/09 model of these. I liked the spherical lens, wide view range that fills out a medium to large face. They match up well with a variety of helmets, thanks to their bigger frame filling up the gaps. I did find the construction to be kind of cheap though. The composite frame and strap loops reminded me of cheap toy plastic. They felt like they could break easily, though they havent.

These shoes are excellent. Comfortable, form fitting, and the lacing system is real nice giving you a snug & dialed in fit. The fabric lace loops are reinforced with plastic loops which help reduce wear and tear on the laces, unlike the XT Wings.

These bars provide all three macro nutrients; fats, proteins & carbs. It is all in balance & always moist, never crumbly like many other bars. You'll never bonk when you have these to replenish yourself.

Their said to run narrow but I found these to be a lil wide. The toe piece is kinda over kill as well. The lace loops are weak. After two months of normal wear one of the lace loops and lace broke. I found the XA Pro 3D to have better loops.
Other than that, these are good trail shoes. The waterproofing worked great for the occasional wet weather & mud. They have a super grippy tread pattern. I run on a lot on decomposed granite in high elevation desert & dry forest areas, known to be looser traction.

This is an alround good snow jacket. Better for mild to moderate conditions. It is fairly basic with not many features but is comfortable, extremely waterproof, and the fur hood is warming. There is a powder skirt unlike what the discription states and the removable hood is nice for those days you don't need it. You can take off the fur trim as well if you don't like it.

Pretty warm & comfortable pants. They are a slightly baggy fit but still very functional and fitting. They may not have the highest waterproof & breathing rating but I was impressed with their construction. You may not need as crazy of waterproofing/breathing ratings such as 20,000 if the consrtuction is very good.
