Backside Special

Just had a chance to try these on the mountain yesterday and I really enjoyed them. I have the tan leather pair and they look really sweet and are very comfortable with my big hands. I bought the XL and they fit great. Leather gloves look great with anything and everyone knows you're ready for business! They kept my hands warm for the most part, it was a really cold day (low 20s), and toward the end of the day my fingers got kinda cold, as I expected from the description, previous reviews and the fact that they are not mittens. Im going with 5 stars cause they will be great in a bit warmer conditions and I'll stick to my mittens for colder days. Great buy!

Did I mention they smell great!???

Just added another favorite to my list of Dakine travel bags! I've trusted my skis to a Dakine ski bag for the last few years and it has held up great! From the back of my truck to the fun and friendly TSA agents nothin' has dinged my sticks! So I figured it was time for a clothing bag too and at $35 from SAC I couldn't go wrong. The lined compartments are great and the zippers are very durable and very smooth. Lightweight material but very durable keeps the bulk down and my clothes dry and intact. I have plenty of faith that this bag will do a great job for years to come.

Really good, very filling, lots of energy and enough sweetness to make it taste more like a candy bar than a protein bar. The sweetness from the honey is a nice change up from typical bars and they are very smooth and not grainy like some bars.

Had a chance to try these mits yesterday at the mountain and I was very impressed at how warm they were. They don't have a removable liner and they aren't super bulky but kept my hands toasty warm to my last run. Easy to get on and off and they don't have a lot of straps and whatnot to get caught on stuff. I have big hands and went with the XL and I have plenty of room for my long fingers and the snot/goggle wipes on BOTH thumbs are a big plus so you don't smear your buggers on your goggles!

Been rockin these since I got 'em! They work great! Excellent sound quality and big enough to cover my big ears. I've used them with my phone a couple times and the mic works great for talking and allows for you to click between calls and music with the button on the mic. Great buy from whisk.

Got the Teal/Smoke ones and they rock! Classic old school look with all the new school features. Love the polarized lenses for driving and they will be great for the lake this summer. I have a larger head so they work and look great. Watch for them on sac and save yourself a few bucks.

Finally got a chance to use this bad boy on the slopes last weekend and it rocked! The Ski Chair setting is great for calculating vertical feet skied/minute and seems to be very accurate (I double checked the true vertical feet of the resorts base and summit and it was within about 10 ft). It is big, so people with small wrists/women beware. But its nice that it is big with a large band so you can wear it over your jacket so you don't have to constantly take your gloves off and roll up your sleeves to start/stop the functions. Should be fun this summer on the hill to see how fast I can bike the same terrain. The barometer is also very accurate and was spot on with the current weather conditions and it is super user friendly. I usually rock a Tissot T-Touch but this thing goes above and beyond on the mountain. Well worth the money especially from SAC.

I've had the jacket for almost a month now and it has been really nice for the Spring weather (40s-50s) we've been having here in Washington. I ordered a XXL cause Im 6'4"/220lbs with long arms and broad shoulders and I have plenty of room. It does have a larger fit so skinny guys might be swimming in it but thats only to be expected from a Kavu XXL. As far as the material goes, the outer fabric is nice and seems to hold up to wear and tear and the inside is nice and soft. Im not a fan of the webbing like material on the inside so I knocked off a star but the fleece on the neck and cuffs is nice. Its no Carhartt but for the price on SAC you shouldn't be expecting one anyways.

These pants are grrrreat! I have the bright orange ones and wish they had some black stripes and I could totally be Tony the Tiger! On a size note they fit pretty true to size, Im a big/tall guy (XXL/6'4") with about a 38 waist and they fit just right in the waist with a little extra wiggle room and plenty of length. The upper bib part is nice because it can zip in and out if you dont want to use it. The greatest thing about the bibs is the two mid-chest pockets great for about three cans of your favorite beverage (per pocket that is!!!!) also good for gadgets and wallets and stuff if need be.

Great bib for all around skiing! Not baggy (so if you're goin gangsta, beware) but has a nice relaxed fit for plenty of free motion, pretty warm with a base layer on and easy leg vents to control air flow. I gave them 5 stars because its a pain for a man of my size to find decent, functional snow pants and these surpassed my expectations. They were my first pair of Stoic pants and won't be my last!
