You can attach your camera to a lot of stuff with this, but it kind of sucks too cause it doesn't seem that strong and it takes forever to set up screwing everything together.

Cool for skiing and biking. but still kind of a weird perspective while skiing. Oh, and just cause the plate is part of the chest harness doesn't mean the clip that holds the camera onto the plate can't break, so you should still use a tether.

Definitely Nice to have a 2nd battery on hand, especially in winter when the battery can die quickly. Now i just wish they had a battery charger so you could keep one charging while using the camera.

I gave this Helmet Camera 4 stars because it is the best helmet camera on the market right now as far as I am concerned. It is not, however, the best potential camera that GoPro could make.

It has better quality footage than any other helmet camera, but its not that durable (I have broken 3), the way they let you mount it all take way too long to set up, they need to make the case close more securely. They should make the sensor larger, they should make the body a perfect square instead of a rectangle (that way you can set it up on the side or on top of your helmet easier). They should put bluetooth in it so that you can stream video to your phone (rather than use a gimmicky LCD screen attached to the back). They should give it 60fps 1080p and 960p video (so that we dont' have to use 720p just to get decent footage).

My only complaint with this is that I always seem to lose all these small parts so i have to buy these grab packs a lot.. and they are kind of expensive for what you get.

These are really sick goggles.. They fit well with a lot of helmets (especially with the POC helmet). The only reason I gave them 4 instead of 5 stars is because I feel they fog up easier than my Crowbars. Its fine though, I don't wear them on storm days (when there is a higher chance of fogging)..i don't wear them on those days because they are a dark lens.

I love the materials and graphics on all these armada shirts, but they fit kinda square and the necks stretch out easily.

These are okay, but they wear out quick and tear easily

I used to like these a lot, but after wearing them under my boardshorts the waistband began to wear out. This never happens with underarmour.

Cool shirt but the neck is too big

I like how this brush is small (you can take it with you) but has a great grip on it.

Great small size. Haven't used it really yet, but its nice cause its big enough to handle big skis but is small enough you can take it with you on trips.

I like these a lost. They are great for working out because they are more of a compression short than some other boxer briefs and they are more of a mesh so they breathe a bit better. I like how they don't have an opening fly, cause I don't need that when i'm working out/swimming and those fly's annoy me when I am.

This beanie is sweet. Tall enough to sag it a little bit, small enough that its not too floppy of a sag. Fairly warm. Awesome color options.

I like these folders for traveling. They keep your clothes a lot less wrinkly and really allow you to carry more stuff with you.

I really like this helmet a lot. POC put a lot of R&D into the design of the Receptor Bug and it has paid off. The helmet isn't too bulky, doesn't weigh a ton, but has great protection. I am definitely glad I have been wearing it in a few instances. Works equally well with goggles over the top or under the helmet. I generally prefer the latter. Fits true to size and fits well with both my Oakley Crowbars as well as with my POC lobes.

I used to wear tight under armour under my boardshorts, but sand would get stuck between the liner and my leg and would chaffe. I then started wearing ex-officio boxers because they were polyester/nylon and would dry quickly, but they fell apart. I'm giving these a try now, they breathe well, dry fast, and seem to be holding up well (fingers crossed)

the design of these shorts is right on the money. While I don't like them as much as my Hurley Phantom's or my Quiksilver Cypher shorts (because the material on these is thicker and not as stretchy), these are still some of my favorite shorts. They do fit a bit small though, my size 34's fit like a 32.5. Luckily I am a size 32, so that means they fit fine. Be careful with sizing.

These are awesome shorts. They have a great fit and fit true to size. I am a 32 and the 32 in these fit great. I could probably wear a 31, but I didn't want to. The green color is AWESOME. The fabric doens't soak up very much water and it dries quickly. I have had very little problems with chaffing in this short. My only real complaint is that the waist tie is supposed to stay tight all the time because the back of the laces are coated in a silicone goo that is supposed to cause the laces to stick together, it doesn't really work so you have to double knot or they will come undone.

Sweet boardshorts. The dobby DLX fabric feels somewhat cheap and thin, but it actually seems to work. The raised diamond pattern is supposed to keep the shorts from rubbing against your skin. They are also very very thin so they don't get heavy when they are wet. The last time I wore these shorts I had an unexpected run in with a reef shark, but I got away unscathed (I am not claiming that this short helped me in this situation, I just think its a cool story). These don't seem to soak up much water so they dry quickly. Cool shorts. The green + yellow + black is almost jamaica looking.

These boardshorts look AWESOME in the sulphur color. They fit true to size. I am a true 32 and bought these in that size and they fit great.

My only complaint is with the material on the left leg. While the right leg is a normal soft polyester boardshort material, i think they screen printed the blue left left onto the short. This causes the left leg to feel very stiff and kind of rub behind my knee a little bit. It is seeming to get better naturally over time, but it definitely feels strange when the shorts are new. Also, the butt of the sulpher ones is straight up white, which means if you sit down in mud at a waterfall, they will stain brown and it will be hard to get out. But just keep trying, it will eventually wash off.

I find that this is hard to tighten down on your vents well enough to keep your camera completely still. It works well and is more secure than probably a sticky tab that could rip off..but it isn't completely vibration proof. It is good for testing out the camera in new places though.

I can't really complain too much that these suck, because I got them for free. But that does not change the fact that they suck. They really do. Mine were black. I can't tell really if they suck because mine were defective, which is why, I guess, that I say they suck. I can't comment on the sound quality of a non-defective pair, since mine were defective. By defective I mean that the volume adjuster on the cord was broken. What does that mean exactly? Well, it means that when I turned the volume bar all the way up, the volume was somewhat normal, yet quiet. When I turned it down, the sound kept playing, but only the bass part. My volume adjuster was turning on and off the treble sounds. This was quite strange and made me somewhat sick to my stomach, so I threw them away.

I bought these headphones a few years ago to listen to music while working. They don't have the best sound quality, and the thick foam sitting on your ear keeps the sound somewhat distant. These are, however, lasting much longer than any other skullcandy's I have previously owned. When I say they are lasting much longer, i mean that the sound still works. The plastic protecting the foam, however, is all falling off, and since my foam has white plastic on it, I always have white plastic all over me, and that sometimes might be viewed as being dandruff, which could be somewhat embarrassing. Luckily my self-esteem is high enough that I don't care if people think the white plastic is dandruff, as it is whiter than dandruff and is kind of obvious that is it not dandruff. But still, a person with low self-esteem might have a problem with that.

I am not really sure why you would ever consider buying this binding. 1st, for a 12 din binding the elasticity of the spring is very low, which means they pre-release way too often. 2nd, the binding is mostly of plastic construction, which means that it will not hold up very well over the course of its somewhat shortened lifetime. 3rd it is a bulky binding that raises you too high off the ski which causes you to loose the "feel" of the ski. The 16 DIN Jester is a slightly better binding, but if you are going to spend money on these, just buy the Rossignol FKS 14, it is much much much much better.

I don't own this shoe, but I have it on my foot right now. I own many pairs of Sanuks, so I am very familiar with their "feel" and "durability". This shoe has a slightly different feel to it than other Sanuk shoes, as it has a little more support under the arch than a traditional Sanuk shoe because of the thicker sole design. Sanuk shoes, and this one included, fit true to size as i typically wear a 10.5 or 11.0 shoe and I prefer a size 11.0 in my Sanuk's. My brother owns this shoe and his one complaint is that he never knows whether or not to wear socks with it, because it looks funny with socks but doesn't provide enough ventilation to keep dry without them.

These shoes come in a ton of great colors. They fit well and are very durable. I am used to wearing a flip flop with zero arch support, so when I put these on I am kind of shocked at the feel under my feet. This feel is not a bad thing, just something different that you have to get used to. Some people might say it is better..I would say that is personal preference. The bottle opener does work, although I guess if you were to step in dog poop the dog poop would get stuck in the bottle opener, and then you would get poop on your drink..that would probably suck.

These really are great bindings. I have the Limited Edition neon color ones, that look way sick on an Artifact board. I am not a great snowboarder, in fact, I am a skier. But I am a somewhat intermediate level snowboarder. These bindings work great for me, they also work great for a beginner, and with a medium flex I am sure they work great for most advanced level park riders as well. They are easy to put on and easy to take off, and they never have released on me.

I am not the best snowboarder in the world. In fact I am a skier. I have only snowboarded a handful of times in my life. But this board is really easy to get the hang of. It handles all groomers extremely well. It is pretty poppy. Great for a beginner to get their hands on and ride but still great for an advanced park rider to ride park on all day. It is soft enough that when I ride more off-piste terrain in choppy terrain it doesn't handle that great..but that is not what this board is for, so who cares? Oh, and mine is the 2007 version..not sure how much different it is than this one...I think its basically the same but with 30mm more of effective edge.

This is the best touring binding on the market for whoever wants to forget that they are on a touring binding while they are skiing. The binding works okay for uphill, not as seamlessly as some other touring bindings, but it does work. The binding is also heavier than most touring bindings. But really, if you want to get to cool zones, deeper snow, and steeper lines, then you probably don't care about having fun on the way up as well. If you sacrifice a little your descent will be better. Plus, whatever doesn't kill you on the way up will just make you stronger..which is always a good thing. Don't be a girl, just handle it!

The binding is still made by marker, so it is not the most durable binding nor does it have the highest elasticity in its spring, but it is still much more burly than any other touring alternative. Get some!

I have not used the Baron. But I have seen it many times, and I personally own the Duke. If you are a serious skier that wants a binding that feels like an alpine binding..then why are you even considering the Baron. If you don't want as burly of a binding as the Duke, then why are making yourself carry around as heavy of a binding as the Baron?

The Duke/Baron line does not go uphill as easily as some other touring bindings. The Marker touring line of bindings is still a Marker binding, which means you will still have some pre-release issues, etc. The Duke is barely burly enough to really handle what you want to throw at it. Sometimes I forget I am on a touring binding while I am skiing my Dukes...that is a GREAT thing. No other touring binding will allow you to feel that way.

These things taste great, and i swear they work. I rode more uphill last weekend on my bike than I have in a long time. I was able to do it and still have more energy than normal. This is a great product that tastes great.

This is the #1 best tasting "energy" bar out there. I really think this might be candy. I didn't try one until last week when I was Downhilling at Deer Valley. Someone gave me one and it really was delicious. I actually thought it was so good that I felt bad not offering any to my friends. Upon tasting it they all agreed that it has the best flavor of any bar.

This ski used to be the epitome of all awesomeness when it first came out. There were much less options in tapered/rockered skis that would still allow you the flexibility to ski in most conditions. Now this ski has relegated itself into more of a powder specific ski based on all of the other better options out there.

Why don't I like this ski as much as the competition?

#1. The ski starts off with a mid-stiff (maybe 7/10 flex), but once you put over 40 or 50 days on it, it softens up substantially, putting it somewhere in the 5/10 flex range. This means that when you first get the ski it will seem to charge fine even in crud, but after a while it will just feel damp and dead.

#2. There is no reason to have as much taper in the tail as this ski has. If Rossignol were to boost the tail dimensions up to 133-135mm and while boosting the waist dimensions up to 122mm, then we would have a pretty ultimate ski setup. It would turn easier on groomers and it would give you a little bit more punch/stability in the tail to rely on. This would also make the swing weight on the ski much more even so that spins off of cliffs and backcountry booters wouldn't feel so strange. It would also allow for easier switch pow landings.

#3 The tip and tail should both feature taper, but that taper should begin slightly earlier, and should give the ski more of a regular sidecut underfoot. This will allow the ski to actually turn better both on groomers as well as on hardpack. It will also allow the ski to surf pow better than it currently does.

This ski used to be great, I still enjoy it, but I can't give it 5 stars anymore as there are so many other skis I would rather be on.

This is a great binding for the intermediate to advanced skier. It has a great lightweight design, and I recommend it over pretty much any other 12 Din binding on the market. This is due to the high elasticity on the spring, which allows the ski to stay on your foot longer when it does not necessarily need to release. This means that the ski falls off less when it shouldn't, but still falls off when it should. The binding is more durable than most 12 DIN bindings on the market as well.

I own the gore-tex version of this shoe, but its fit is exactly the same, so I though i would comment. First..if you are ever going to run in wet environments, get the gore-tex version, it is worth it. 2nd. These shoes fit great. They have a moderate width last, so they fit a wide variety of feet. I usually wear a size 10.5 or 11.0 in my running shoes. In this shoe I am between 10.0 and 10.5, I went with 10.5 so that I would not get toe bang. The rest of the shoe still fits great. You can really tighten them down if you want to due to the quicklace system. I love these shoes!

These shoes fit great. I am normally between a 10.5 and 11. In this shoe I am between 10.0 and 10.5 but went with 10.5 in order to avoid toe-bang. The gore-tex works great. The shoe is very durable. It is burly enough to use as a hiking shoe, but light enough to use as a runner. This really is one of my favorite shoes, and no traditional laces is a huge plus!

These shoes are awesome. They make a great trail running shoe or a great hiking shoe. They are definitely waterproof, and the blue color is AWESOME. I normally wear a size 10.5 or 11.0 in my running shoes. In this shoe I fit somewhere between a size 10.0 and a size 10.5. I ended up going with 10.5 so that I would not get toe-bang as easily. They have a normal fitting last, not too wide or too narrow, so they do fit a wide variety of feet well.
