It really depends on how big your thighs are. I am 6 foot, 165 lbs and I ordered a medium and they aren't snug around the thigh/leg area. Had I ordered a small then I would probably be ok. I would say my legs are slightly skinnier than average though and these would probably fit the average thigh just about right.

The splice is meant for "medium to large" faces according to Oakley. So it's going to be pretty much like your Wisdoms.
Worst case scenario, if you really want to give these things a try, is to order them and if they don't fit simply send them back for a full refund. You will have to pay return shipping though, so you'll be out $6 or so. Not too bad of a gamble in my opinion, because these are supposed to be the latest greatest thing out there in goggle technology.
I will add though that these are more similar to the Crowbars, and I don't think they look at big on my face as the Wisdoms do. I own both types.

It's tough to tell the size that will work best. Since the 58 cm is on the medium and the large.
The good news is, if it doesn't fit for him, you may send it back and they'll send you a large. They'll give you a full refund when they receive it. You will have to pay return shipping though, which will probably be around $7.
But this site has great customer service. If you do end up having to send it back just click on the "chat now" button at the top right of the screen and an agent will set you up with a return number and get the large helmet on its way.
Hope everything works out in the first place and you don't have to re-order.

For you a 152 is going to be on the longer side of the spectrum. You could go anywhere from a 148-154 and probably be ok.
A couple things to keep in mind though. The longer the board is the tougher it's going to be to control and manuever. So if you're a beginner you may want to look into something shorter.
A longer board is going to get you higher speeds and will be better in powder.
If you are still growing, like in middle school or high school and think you have a ways to go, then I would say it wouldn't be a bad idea at all to get the 152. Because if it's a little long this year, it'll be perfect for you next year.
Overall, you'll probably be ok in a 152, especially if this is the best deal you can find. The only thing I'd be worried about it is maybe being a tad too long for you. But like I said, if you're still growing, you should be ok for sure.

Here, yes. It's all they have in stock. But if you're asking if Forum only makes this board in a size 152, then no. They have a variety of sizes for this board.

These don't exactly have a strong backbone of support running through them. I have one and do the same as you're looking to do. One board, and all my gear. If you had enough stuff you could probably get it to keep from drooping. However, I have a 158 board, and a 156 case, and it still fits. So your 157 shouldn't have any problem fitting into a 156 case.

First, a 143 would be perfect for you. My wife weighs exactly what you do, has a 143, and loves it. Plus, the size charts match up for this size too.
Because you are a beginner I would definitely recommend you have a board that is on the smaller end of the spectrum. With it being shorter it will be so much easier for you to control and maneuver.
And yes this would be a great all mountain board. It is designed for "all mountain" so you're good to go no matter where you go and what you try.
Also, just so you know, it is a directional board, which means one binding is closer to the end of the board than the other. Meaning you want the side that's closest to the end to be the back of your board. This way you will float over the snow easier.
You'll love this board. I ride a Forum too, and I love it!

At 80 kg you're going to want ATLEAST a 157. I definitely wouldn't go any smaller than that. So a 154 is going to be too small for you.

-25? No. That's a little cold for these.

Probably not. This doesn't have a lot of insulation, especially for -15

Yes as Liz pointed out, hang dry it. You don't want to dry anything with heat (in the dryer) because it will ruin the waterproofing.

No grid, this is last years version.

Yes, Yes, Yes and Yes.
Great board for the mountain and parks. Geared slightly more towards the park, but also made for anything anywhere on the mountain. As for durability, it's just like any other snowboard. If you treat it well, keep in waxed and take care of it, it's going to take care of you.
I would definitely say it's worth buying if you like the looks of it and can afford it. It's a great price at 40% off and Burton makes top of the line equipment.
If it breaks, which it never should under normal riding conditions, don't even worry about fixing it. If there is any defect or malfunction with the board backcountry will take it back for a full refund. You can simply order another one why you're at it and they'll credit your account when they receive your old board. They have great customer service. You can't go wrong buying from here.

Absolutely.

I'm not sure what exactly you mean by trails. Like tree trails? But either way, it IS an all-mountain board, so it should have you covered if that's what you're interested in.
If you want a board just for the park then you need to find a freestyle board. Otherwise, this one one will be perfect for you.

Well white is obviously the toughest thing to keep looking clean, but the exterior material is nylon which should repel most stains and dirt. After all, it is waterproof so you don't have to worry about liquid stains too much, and it should wash up nicely as well.
Just remember not to dry it in the dryer using any heat. This will ruin the waterproofing.

They either entered the price wrong or the white/cyan is a discontinued color or one that isn't selling well. Either way, if you like the white/cyan color, I'd go for the good deal you can get on it.

Well you're definitely going to want a wide board, like the one above. Unfortunately they don't have this board in the size you need. You're going to want something that's at least 163 or longer. Anything you can find that's a wide board from 163-170 should suite you pretty well.

Ya, they have it in size 7.5 in green camo if that's the color you're wanting. If not, you're out of luck. Nothing else in 7.0 or 7.5.

It doesn't actually matter. It's more of a personal preference really. I suppose if you're wanting to get the most "scraping" power from it, placing it so you can read the burton logo while you board would offer a little wider area to scrape the snow off your boot. But that's about it.

Here you go. I got this from the backcountry site:

"Before I get to the difference between a 5K jacket and a 20K jacket, I need to clarify a few things. A 20K rating, sometimes written as 20,000mm, means that a jacket's fabric can withstand 20,000 millimeters (almost 66 feet) of rain in 24 hours before its wearer gets wet. So, a 5K jacket can take up to 16 feet of rain in 24 hours. Given that the record for the most rainfall in a day is about 6 feet, both options sound pretty damn waterproof.

You should also know that a jacket's waterproof rating is for the fabric, not the entire jacket. A jacket's fabric might be able to handle several feet of rainfall, but if the seams aren't sealed, then water can usually get in. So if you want the best waterproofing, look for a fully seam-sealed jacket (also called fully taped). A 20K waterproof jacket is virtually pointless if the seams aren't taped.

Now, to get down to your question. As I said, a 5K jacket's fabric can withstand 16 feet of rain, but manufacturers generally don't tape all the seams (if at all). These jackets often have a waterproof coating (DWR or Teflon, for example) instead of a waterproof membrane integrated into the fabric (like The North Face's HyVent). Zippers aren't waterproofed. If it dumps snow, you probably won't stay dry very long. The 5K jacket is typically a lifestyle piece or a jacket to wear on sunny days—not one I'd rely on for waterproof protection in the backcountry or a crappy weather day on the ski slopes.

Then there's 10K. 10K is more than 5K, you say? Bingo. You can confidently take that jacket out on a powder day in Utah or Colorado or wear it during a short cloudburst. But it might not hold up to wetter coastal snow or hours in the rain on the Olympic Peninsula. Do take note of its construction—for example, are its seams taped? Does it have waterproof zippers? Does it have a membrane construction?

A 20K jacket will keep you dry in nearly any condition. A manufacturer that bothers to make a jacket from 20K-rated fabric with a membrane is probably going to cover every seam and use waterproof zippers and storm flaps. I would feel confident in any coastal snowstorm in a 20K jacket."

O ya, you can definitely rock a 159 for sure. Especially in the park, the shorter size will come in handy for more control and maneuverability. And with you height being under 6 foot, I would definitely say a 159. If you go much bigger you're gonna start to feel like you've got clown feet as a snowboard. The board will just be too big and clumsy.

That's correct, and I highly doubt they'll get any other in considering it's a discontinued color and this jacket is a previous years model. If you really love the jacket, and think that from the size chart they give that you might be able to wear a medium w/o it being huge, you could always buy it and if it did turn out to be too large you could just send it back for a full refund. You would however have to pay return shipping. So it's about a $7 gamble. Just a thought for you to consider.

Just click on the "view sizing chart" button above and it tells how to measure your hand accordingly to know where you fit in their size chart that they have listed.

I'm assuming you're talking about being afraid your foot size will be too big. I have no clue about your weight and so it's tough to know what length you really need. But they only have two sizes currently available. the 155 and the 162. The 155 is border line for you. You should probably be ok with the waist width being wide enough for 12s. The 162 you would definitely be fine.

Yes it's true, sorry. For some reason they can't ship North Face products to Europe.

I found this on shop.com
"Description: A down insulated jacket with hand pockets, quilted stitching, piping detail, front screen print, a removable hood with pull and magnet system, underarm vents, storm flaps, and wrist gaiters.
Specifications: 80/20 Duck Down"
So from what they describe it sounds like your typical Oakley Jacket. Doesn't talk about powder skirt, waterproof and breathable, and pass holder, but considering it says it has wrist gaiters and their magnet system on the hood, I'm guessing it comes with what you're wanting.
If for some reason Oakley decided to go cheap on a coat and it doesn't have all this, you can always send it back and get a full refund. You will have to pay return shipping. So I guess it's about a $7 dollar gamble.

As in heavy jacket to keep you warm? If so then yes. It has 550 down fill in it and great insulation. You'll keep plenty warm.
Heavy as in weight heavy? It's hard to know exactly what you consider "heavy" but I would say no. It's not annoyingly heavy that it'll be noticeable when you wear it.

Yes, they have an XL in white only. No XXL however. Just click on the pulldown menu where it says "select options" and select White XL

Note:
You'll get a full refund as well if they don't fit. But you will have to pay for return shipping

Nope. No Hood.

That's strange. I wonder if it got labeled wrong and the helmet is really a large. I would get on to their live help and tell them what's up. Just click on the "Chat Now" button at the top right of the page and tell them about your situation. They will most likely send you another helmet, I guess I would go with the Small, and you can send back your medium. You'll probably have to pay for the shipping to return the helmet. But they'll send you your new one free. (They'll actually charge you for the new one and then once they receive your return they'll take it off your credit card to even everything out.)

I'm not sure about the smith troy lee, but I have the Crowbars and wear a Smith Holt helmet. So they are the same brand of helmet which may have some similarities. Hopefully this helps some. Just trying to help with what I can. Good luck!

Nope. Only small, medium, and large available.

No I wouldn't recommend going a size up. I would stick with your 7.5. You want snowboard boots to be snug, because they will break in and stretch a little once you have them broken in. So stick with your 7.5.

They have that on here when you want to write a review. It says "Let 'er rip." where you would type your review at.
It just means go for it, write away, tell us what you know, etc.

It's the 08/09 board. Last years model.

There is also an Icebreaker BodyFit150 for men as well. My guess is he actually owns the mens version and went on here to write a review and accidentally clicked on the womens one.

150 155
Ya, I don't think you want a 159. It would somewhat depend on what type of riding you want to do. If this is a "powder only" board though like you seem to be saying you might be ok. It's really personal preference. I don't know what other boards you have, but for example, if you have a 156 and like it just fine, then you could probably get away with a 159 powder board. But if you're jumping much more than 3 or 4 cm it's gonna be quite a change for you.

Unfortunately what you see is all they have in stock. It is possible that they may get more in, but its anybody's guess if they will or not. Usually they don't stock more of an item unless it sells like crazy. So odds are in your favor to try and find a different color or model. Sorry

They actually don't make wide womens snowboard boots that I'm aware of. I'm not sure exactly how wide your feet are, but I would guess that they'll most likely fit into a snowboard book ok. If you find a good deal on a pair of boots you really like on here, I would just go ahead and get them. They should fit ok.
If for some reason they would happen to be too narrow, you can always send them back for a full refund. Backcountry has great customer service. You will have to pay 7 or so bucks to send them back, but I really think you should be ok in the first place.
Be sure to check backcountry's outlet. They have tons of last years models that are all on sale and you can grab a really good deal!

Nope most likely not. This coat is a previous years model and they're just trying to get rid of it.

It's made for both. The Crail is made for a wide spectrum of skill levels.

Unfortunately not. The regular Giro Shiv is, but there are no L or XL in the audio version.

If you want this exact board, they obviously don't have a 148. I would get the 152 or 155 if I were you. A 148 is getting a little on the short side for your weight. Considering you're just going into your second year I would go with something from a 152-156. This will be short enough to control and maneuver but you won't held up because you're board is too short.

This isn't the lightest board, but it doesn't sound as if you're concerned about performance in the park. So if speed, responsiveness and durability are what you want I would go with Never Summer. Have you ever talked to someone who hates their never summer board? They're pretty hard to come by. NS makes an incredible product, and they back it with a THREE year warranty. You don't find that anywhere. This is your board my friend.

Ok, I don't know what all information you need but hopefully I can help some. As for a good board, you basically get what you pay for. The more expensive, the better it's gonna be. I would look for something that is an allmountain board. This way, as you're learning, you can take it anywhere, terrain park, fresh powder, or the bunny slope. This way you have maximum versatility. If you can find a board with a 'transworld good wood' award, then you know for sure that its a great board.
This would be a good beginner board for you (k2 luna). You have an advantage being a girl too because their boards are cheaper. Make sure you get a womens board though, they have a softer flex and are meant more for women (obviously).
Since you're a beginner I would buy a board from last years model line. (unless money isn't a problem) This way you can save some money and catch a good deal. Here's a list of the top ten womens boards under $400 from last year.
Burton The Social
Capita Space Metal Fantasy FK
DC BFT
Endeavor Boyfriend Series
Gnu B-Nice BTX
K2 VaVaVoom Rocker
Rome Detail
Roxy Ollie Pop BTX
Signal Vita
Technine Women’s Jib

I would go with the 156. I think a 152 would be too short for you. And you could probably sneak by with a normal board instead of a wide board as well. But you can't go wrong with a wide one either.

I'd go with anything from a 158 to 164. If you're a beginner I would stick to something closer to 158. A shorter board will also be much easier to control and maneuver.
If you go longer you'll get more speed and it'll be better in powder.

No, I think you would be ok. I had 13s in Burton boots at one point and also have Burton Custom bindings, and they were fine. So I don't think one more size would do much. The bindings have an adjustable plate by the toe that you can extend out like four notches. It adds a little length to them for ya.

While I can't offer personal experience because this jacket is womens, I can say that their size charts in men are very accurate. If you click above on the size chart link and find the size that "says" should fit you, then you should be good to go. The size chart given is the exact size chart for North Face Women's clothing.
And if by some crazy reason it doesn't fit, you can send it back and order the right size and they'll have no problems with making an exchange.

Here's another site that offers the same product for the same price. I would still however purchase from backcountry though because of their great return policy and customer service. But at least this site shows you the other colors.
http://www.altrec.com/marmot/womens-furlong-jacket

Unfortunately you don't have a say in which color you get. It's just a gamble on whether you get the blue and green one. They just put whatever board they have next in a box, and ship it to you. The great thing is though if it's a color you absolutely do not like, you can send it back, no questions asked for a full refund. You do however have to pay about $7 for return shipping though.

Absolutely. If you get the small in and it's too small, you can order a medium immediately and send the small back. When backcountry receives your small they will credit your account.
If you do end up needing to make a return you might look into clicking the "chat" button that is at the top right of the page and one of the employees can hook you up with a return number, and get your new size ordered immediately. Backcountry has the best customer service around.

Absolutely.

Hey Sean, you could ride anything from a 130-145 pretty much. Since it sounds like you want to ride in the terrain park, I would go with something around 135 or slightly longer, because I'm assuming your growing pretty fast. If this is the board you are interested in, the only size they have is a 136 which I feel would be perfect for you. I little on the shorter side so you can get all those tricks in with better control.

Well I suppose you could, but they really aren't made for street wear. You're probably going to get uncomfortable quite quickly if you're just walking around the city in them. Snowboard boots are made to keep your foot and ankle secure and protected and are much stiffer than normal snow boots. So I wouldn't recommend it.

You're definitely going to want the 163cm board. And it's also helpful that this board is wide as well, because I'm assuming you have over a size 10 or 11 shoe, and it will also distribute your weight just a little more.
If you've never boarded before I would recommend renting a board first, and trying to get a good idea if you like the sport and what size of board you need. It's certainly much cheaper than spending $350 on a board and $200+ more on boots and bindings.
However if you've already done this I would look for something around a size 163. Some may say that a 163 is too small for you for your weight, but you're only 6'1" and if you start going too much longer than the board is going to be hard to maneuver.
Good luck, hope this helps!

Well I'm not sure the temperatures you run in, but it is definitely a very light coat. Only 10.6 ounces, which would be good for running. It is also waterproof which is good for the heavy rain part. For the wind it will be great as well. Your only issue may be how cold of weather you run in. If it gets too cold you could always throw on something like a fleece pullover underneath to keep you warm.

They probably won't get anymore in stock since it is a previous model and some of the colors are already becoming discontinued. And if you love it so much who cares what anyone else thinks right?! It sounds to me like they should all be jealous they don't have one too!!

I'm not sure what you mean by heavy. But these are going to weigh about the same as every other kids snowboard boot weighs. Not excessively heavy, but not light either.
If you're worried about them slowing down the person wearing them or being cumbersome, this shouldn't be a problem. Every manufacturer realizes that their product needs to be as light, comfortable, and agile as possible and factors in that you're going to be walking in them and riding/standing with them on for long periods of time. So they should be just fine for you as far as weight is concerned.

Well, while that's quite a vague question, it does have 100g of insulation and a zip in and removable liner. It is also waterproof and recommended for snow sports, which are obviously done in the cold. So I would say you should be good to go in North Dakota weather. It should keep you warm enough in most conditions and circumstances.

The 153 is good for anyone weighing 140-150 pounds, the 156 is good for anyone weighing 150-160 pounds.
I am unable to find the minimum stance width for you though.

No, you would be freezin' your tail off. It does have a "thermoliner" but comes equipped with NO insulation in it at all. I would guess anything below freezing, and you're going to be freezing!

Stiff? No. They have a medium flex.

Yes they are. Water-resistant Gore WindStopper. And windproof as well.

Nope.

You would probably be ok. It's definitely at the smaller end of the spectrum of boards you could get. I certainly wouldn't go any smaller. And it is a wide board as well, so it does have a little more surface area than a regular board to distribute your weight better. Not much of a difference, but it is some.
I weigh 165 and have ridden a 156 before, which is as small as "they" say I should go, and felt fine. So I'd say you'd be ok. Go for it!

You should be able to machine wash cold with mild detergent. There doesn't appear to be material in the jacket that will be ruined from washing it. And it does come equipped with a lifetime warranty, meaning it's built tough, and you could probably wash it and be just fine.

Sorry, no chance in picking your color. Burton is like that. They just ship boards with random colors on it. It's luck of the draw. I guess if you don't like the color they give you, you can send it back for a full refund. You'll have to pay shipping though.

Well according to backcountry's site, they say that they can't ship Salomon Alpine and XC Skis. But say nothing about snowboards. So if they have everything printed correctly you should be ok. You can go ahead and try to order it and if they aren't allowed to ship this out of the US then they'll just cancel your order.

I would say they are definitely for bright sunny days. They only allow 12% light through and are one of the darker lenses they have. These are a great pick for you "bright, sunny bluebird day."

Like Ed says, it really depends on how sensitive your eyes are. I have the regular persimmon lenses which actually let in a bit more light than HI Persimmon, and I use these when it's sunny and bright and am just fine. So for me the Persimmon or HI Persimmon are the ideal all-around lenses.

Sí, por lo que entiendo que vienen con dos lentes.

The jacket can be shipped to Slovakia-Europe, however there is no size S. Only Large left. Sorry.

They're made of Paramount nylon.

Well he needs a larger board for sure. I would go anything from a 130-137. Considering that he's probably growing like a weed, something closer to a 137 would be ideal, that way it'll fit him longer. As for his feet getting bigger, the waist width (how wide the board is) around this year's Burton Chopper 125cm (they don't make a 126) is 230mm. So I'm guessing that's really close to the waist width of the board your son has now. So you need to find something with a considerably larger width than that. Especially since he'll probably be in size 8 boots before you know it.
The Burton Dom Grom is one possibility. They make a 134 and it has a waist width of 237mm. It is however geared more towards a park board.
The 135 Custom Smalls and 135 Custom V-Rocker Smalls both have a waist width of 234mm. These boards are also both geared more towards park, but could be used all-mountain as well. I'm not sure how much his boots are hanging over, but if you don't think 4mm or 7mm is enough extra width, then I would look into something that is obviously a little wider. You can search the site for other kids boards that backcountry has. They unfortunately only show the waist width for one size of any given particular snowboard, so you have to go to the manufacturer's website (like burton.com) and research that particular board there to find out how wide they are (waist).
You may want to look into getting him a woman's board as well. Many of the woman boards they make today look just as cool and similar to mens boards, and they would offer a little more flex, have a wider waist than junior boards, and be more suitable for someone his size.
Hope this helps! Goodluck!

Well you could range anywhere from about a 156 to 162, and by the looks of things you need about an all mountain size so I would hit something right in the middle.
I am 165 pounds as well and ride a 158 and love it.

31-32in

The jacket does have insulation. It isn't just a shell. However the insulation probably wouldn't be enough to keep you warm when it gets down to below freezing temps. It's hard to tell though, some people just get colder than others. But you could obviously throw on a sweatshirt underneath and probably be fine, due to the 15k waterproof rating that this jacket has, you don't have to worry about getting wet. And it is also a loose fit, so there would be plenty of room for another jacket or sweatshirt underneath.
And I am certain that it does have at least one interior pocket. Large enough for a pair of glasses, or a mens wallet, or mp3 player. I don't know why they only talk about the exterior pockets in the description, but wouldn't be surprised if there were a few more interior pockets. I have two oakley jackets and my girlfriend has one as well, and they all have 2 or 3 interior pockets, so I don't see why this one would be any different. You could always send it back for a full refund, no questions asked, if for some reason you got it and didn't like it.

Ok bro, I went above and beyond for ya here.
PHOTO PROOF!
And I actually ride with Oakley Wisdoms and Oakley Crowbars,(which work perfect as well) but I had my brother's A Frame for ya! This better help!

I would put you in anything from a 135-145 board. It depends on what kind of riding you want to do, how good you are, and a few other personal preferences. Hopefully I can help.
A shorter board is going to be easier to control, handle, and turn. It will also be better in the terrain park. (135-140 for you)
Longer boards go faster, are more stable at high speeds, and are better in powder. (140-145)
If I were to pick out a board for you I would go with a more shorter length simply because they are easier to control and handle. You can always go faster by going down a steeper hill. I don't know your exact skill level and what you like to do on the mountain though, so it makes it tough, but for me, I can ride anything from a 156-163 and ride a 158 and love it. And I wouldn't have any problems with going down to a 156 either. I just prefer something shorter and more maneuverable.
As for your size 6 shoe, I'm assuming you wrote on your own account (jeff) therefore this is a men's size. You're going to need a size small in bindings.

I wouldn't if I were you. You might be ok with the 162. It has a waist width of 250mm but that's still pushing it with a size 12 boot. It also depends on what angle you set your stance at. The more of an angle the easier a larger boot will fit on a smaller board.
I have a size 12 and ride a wide board. I think you would be better off with finding something with a larger waist. You don't want toe drag!

Nope, if you found a deal on last years pair and like them, I'd go for it. If any type of malfunction would happen for some reason you can always return them here no questions asked for a new pair.

Well these above are obviously Burton Customs which are a decent binding. Not top of the line, but they'll certainly work. As for Burton Mission bindings, they are a nice binding as well. Poncho Villa? not in stock at backcountry.
Your 10.5 boot will be perfect for a medium. If a medium is out of stock, you could also purchase a large and still be ok.

Well the reason for the length gap is simply because of all the different riding styles and preferences that come with snowboarding.
Longer boards go faster, are more stable at higher speeds, and are great for powder. While shorter boards are easier to maneuver, turn, and control, and are also better in the terrain park. Longer boards are usually preferred by more advanced riders while shorter boards are more for beginners.
Considering that it sounds like you are a decent boarder, and can get around the mountain without much of a problem, I would probably look into something more towards the middle to upper end of the spectrum. I would say something from a 143 to 150 would be ideal. My g/f is 5'5" 115 and rides a 143 and absolutely loves it. And she is a pretty good boarder. So it comes down to what YOU want. More control and easier to handle and maneuver? Go with a 143-147. More speed, and easier to rider powder? 147-150.
Personally, if I were you, I would go with the 143-147 range. It'll just be easier to ride all around. If you want to go faster, you can always find a steeper hill!

This board would be great for a beginner because of the opportunity it would give you to advance your skill level. It's a great board, hence the Transworld Snowboarding Good Wood award from 2009 that is received. So it's LEGIT! It is however a freestyle board which means it's built more for the terrain park, therefore the edges are angled up a few degrees so you won't catch an edge on a rail and faceplant for example. This also means you won't be able to carve as easily in hardpacked and icy conditions. Given that you're just a beginner, you probably won't know much difference anyways, which is perfectly fine. I just want you to know what you're purchasing.
As far as size goes, you could get anything from a 140-150. This again depends on what you want to do. Longer boards are faster, more stable at high speeds, and better in powder. Shorter boards are easier to control, turn, and maneuver.
If I were you, considering that you're still somewhat of a beginner, I would shoot for something around 145. So a 143-147. I definitely wouldn't go any longer than 147 for sure! That's almost too long in my opinion. My g/f is 5'6" 115 and rides a 143 and loves it, and she is pretty decent.
I personally prefer shorter boards simply because they are easy to control and handle.

It's hard to tell. The guys that work here can't even tell you. Considering it's the 08-09 model you would think that it would be going on sale soon. The good news is they have well over 200 in stock, so you don't have to worry about them selling out anytime soon while you wait for them to go on sale.

This is really a personal preference question because of all the variables possible. But anything from a 130-145 would be fine. Considering he's "advanced" I would put him in something closer to the 145 than the 130. Especially if he's riding powder and all mountain. If he likes the terrain park, shoot for something more towards the middle, say 135-140. The most important thing is getting him a nice board that he can improve and advance his skills with.

It should work just fine as long as your Zune has any normal headphone plug in that you plug your headphones in to listen to music with. This comes with a "universal plug, direct-connect cable, iPod adapter, universal adapter" so it basically works with anything. You should be fine. And if for some crazy reason it doesn't (which I highly doubt) you could always send it back for a full refund, no questions asked.

You are definitely ok with the wide board, however the length is dependant on your skill and preference. I wouldn't go with any longer board than a 162. Especially if you're more of a beginner. I am 6'1" 165 pounds size 12 shoe and ride a wide 158. That is pretty much as long of a board as I would like.
Basically, the shorter the board the more control you'll have, the longer the board, the faster you'll be able to go and more stable it'll be at high speeds. Also a longer board is better in powder, while a shorter one is better in the terrain park. So it really depends on what type of riding you'll be doing and your skill level (shorter boards for beginners).
If I were you and could find a 160Wide I would probably go with that. But if the only thing available is the 162, you should be fine, after all it's only 2 more centimeters.

Burton has strict rules on where their stuff can be shipped. It's just a rule they have for their dealers.

More a super pale green.

You should be ok wearing impact shorts. If you fall in between sizes, I would definitely go a size up though.

Ya, anything below freezing, and YOU'RE going to be freezing. Like the description says, its for "mellow" weather.

Personally, if you fit inbetween the large and XL, I would go with the XL. First, if its really cold, you may be dressing in layers, and having something with a little extra space is always nice. And even more importantly, it's nice to have something a little baggy instead of a little small. If it's a little big, that just means you have plenty of room to move around without it pulling tight anywhere.

An XS should be about right for you, only they don't have any in stock right now. Unless you're getting them somewhere else.

I'm not sure of the exact length, but these are pretty long for boardshorts. I guess it depends on how tall you are, but the average girl will probably have these come down to their knees. And they are womens.

Not on this site, sorry.

No, there isn't really much difference between the two. However, you may want to consider getting a Medium, because with you 6.5 size book, it would be a lot easier to strap in than if you were to order a Small size binding.

These would be just fine. They're an all mountain binding which means they're good for just about anything. Whether it be 40 foot jumps and 1080s, or creeping down the bunny slope. You won't be disappointed with them. The Lexa's are a great model. Just be sure your board is EST compatible.

I haven't tried this exact pair, but the Burton Hails I have run true to size, so I would assume all Burton boots would.

Well I hope he ASKED you, but it's hard telling if this is the one he wants or not. It will hold his snowboard with bindings and maybe a few other small things. You will have to buy the 166 though, because they don't have a 160. (This is the length in cm, and you want to make sure it will fit his board, so the 156 would be too small, therefore you must get the 166)

Yes, one inside pocket.

That's correct. No XL in this particular jacket.

The Feelgood is a very nice board. Be aware it is a freestyle board, which means it's meant more for park and pipe, and not so much for powder, big mountain, backcountry, etc. As far as bindings go, if you want to stick with Burton, you could get the Stiletto's and Lexa's are both a nice choice.

It's neither a defect or bad pic. It's how the board is made. It's meant to look a little faded on the bottom side.

You can just throw it in the wash on a light cycle.

Well if you like the style of this board, then this puppy is for you. It's meant to do just what you want, carve. I would advise anything from a 157 to 163. It all just depends on personal preference. Keep in mind the longer the board, the easier it floats on powder and the faster it'll go, and the shorter the board the easier it will be to control. So with the riding you're wanting to do, I'd settle somewhere in the middle. I'm 6 foot, 165 and ride a 158 and find that length to be perfect.

I'm not sure exactly what you're talking about, but it comes with additional padding to add or remove to help fit snug or loosen up. And then of course you can adjust the chin strap. But as far as any tightening/loosening device inside the actual part of the helmet doesn't exist with this one.

Yes. Click on the "select options" button up above and choose your size and color.

Unconditional 100% GuaranteeWe guarantee complete satisfaction and an unlimited lifetime warranty. If at any time -- now, next month, in 30 years -- you're not 100% satisfied, send your gear back for a full refund. No questions asked.

Sure can, and you're good to go.

Sorry, none in stock with this specific coat.

yep

Absolutely.

Assuming you are in the United States. Anything you order off here right now should make it to you well before Christmas. However they don't have brown and PINK in stock, unless you are referring to brown and WHITE, which they do have.

These are the biggest Oakleys that I am aware of. I used to own a pair of M Frame Sweeps, and remember not wanting the M Frame Heater because they looked huge on me. So if these don't work, I don't know what will.

It's not the most versatile board out there in my opinion, simply because it's a freestyle board, and not an all-mountain one. This is meant more for the park and pipe.

Well, they don't have the greatest waterproofing and aren't the warmest you could find. But it just depends on what you're looking for.

Well this is just slightly on the stiffer side. So they may not be what you're looking for.

Well you can assume they want you to buy burton bindings along with it. But really just about anything would work.

I'd actually put it somewhere in between. It's not the warmest you could find, but it will keep you plenty warm is most winter conditions.

The waterproofing isn't bad actually. You should have no problems staying dry. And it has fully taped seams as well, which is a big plus. As far as warmth, it's about average for your typical snowboard pant. If you really love how these look, you could stay plenty warm in them with some underarmor/long underwear on underneath them.

Sorry, no black one's are in stock.

It's all personal preference really. If you like all your gear fitting in one bag, then this is for you.

No. You'd have to do some serious layering for it to keep you warm in 0 degree temps.

Nope, just XXL

Yes it does. It has a hook that snaps on with a button.

Well I'm not sure of the extent of your husbands disease, but it should most certainly help him more than any other normal glove. And yes, if they don't work you can send them back for a full refund. You will however have to pay to have them shipped back.

Well if you don't plan on wearing any layers underneath or tucking anything in to you pants I would go with the mediums. If you want them to be a little looser and plan on what I mentioned above I would go with the Large. They only have a 34" waist, and you can still cinch the waist up without even using a belt.

Not on here it doesn't. Possibly some other site maybe?

Not on here. Just the color shown.

Yes, it contains insulation, and yes it's breathable.

Yep. Just use the pull down menu up above called "select options" and choose the "jewel blue, L."

They will refund your money for the item, but you have to pay to ship it back.

They will refund your money for the item, but you have to pay to ship it back.

Do you mean the Never Summer Lotus? I'm not aware of Backcountry having a Salomon Lotus. But both would be a good choice for her. I'm guessing this is for a present for her so you couldn't ask her which design she likes more. Either one is great for all mountain riding. I might lean toward the Never Summer simply because they make really good quality products and back their boards with a 3 year warranty. That is almost unheard of.

Yes, you definitely need a wide board with your 13.5 shoes. So this would work. I'm not sure of your skill level but since you've been riding for 5 years I would guess your pretty decent. This is the lowest end Burton board you can buy. Therefore I would be a little afraid of it possibly holding you back. Again, it depends on how good you are and how good you plan on becoming. But just keep in mind that you get what you pay for. If you want a Burton board, go to burton.com and look at their lineup. Then you can come back here and purchase what you want. From Burton's website you can even sort them by just the wide boards they manufacture, which you most certainly need.

Absolutely

Ya, they should be able to manage that.

Either. If you like them, go for it!

Well that would be up to the local store. But it comes all new with tags, so I don't see why they wouldn't exchange with you.

I'd go with this board if I were you. It's made for the park anyways. And it has a lifetime warranty on it so if anything goes wrong with it, you can send it back.

Nope, sorry. What you see is what you get.

Well they ship out of Utah, so depending on which type of shipping you choose, it would take anywhere from 2-7 business days.

Nope sorry. Each size has it's own color.

Well it's certainly not what they're meant for, but I'm guessing they would probably work out alright. I'm not sure what your average day involves, but they should keep you warm and protected anyways.

I'd stick with the XLarge then since it's what you always buy him. That size should fit him fine. It'd probably be bigger to have a coat that's a little big around the waist, than too small around the neck. So I'd pick the XL

Nope sorry, what appears in the pull down menu is all they have.

Yes, they can ship this to Canada. Just add it to you cart and begin filling out your information and address and it will tell how much it's going to cost to ship it.

Sorry, they don't ship North Face to Canada.

Oakley makes top of the line eyewear. You should never have a problem with these fogging up on you.

It says 69.95 on my page. You may have been using a link from some other website to direct you here, or else there was a flaw somewhere. They did have a 20% off sale, but that ended a while back. You may still be seeing prices from that which are wrong.

It will certainly keep you dry, and should keep you plenty warm as well. Especially if you have on a longsleeve shirt or light layer underneath.

Nope.

Yep, two front ones.

You could get the 7 3/8 and line the inside with something. There's plenty of tricks to do to make a hat that's a little too big fit you.

No, but they have little tabs on the side you can pull and cinch up the waist without a belt.

I wouldn't think so. And boys grow up fast anyways, so if it's too big this winter, it'll fit next winter. But I really think you should be ok.

He was apparently upset, which I don't know why because everything you buy off of here has a lifetime warranty on it. So if something went wrong with these you could just send them back for a new pair or refund.

9 x 8 x 5in

yep, padded too.

Yes, you could wash it, but only a gentle cycle. And throw some tennis balls in with it to keep the down from bunching up.

You scrape it off with a scraper, then use this tool. The nylon side then the copper side.Structuring it means you're making the wax flow in one direction to make your skis go even smoother. If you're not a racer though, you probably aren't going to even notice any difference. I don't use a copper brush when I wax. The nylon side does a good enough job for me. It buffs the wax, and structures it as far as I'm concerned.

Nope, it's 1 inch too big.

currently...45

Yep, click on the "view sizing chart" button above.

Well I can assure you that you'll be covered for the jumps and rails part. As for four years, it depends on how well you treat it and how often you go. If you take care of, it should take care of you. And remember, if something goes wrong with it, and it's defective, you can send it back no questions asked.

Nope

No, there's no specific temperature rating for it.

You got it.

Yes it is.

I would guess a large would be pretty close. I am your height and weigh just a little bit less than you and would probably go with the large.

I checked some other sites and they all have it listed as 450. So the "tech specs" on this page are wrong. It's 450 and not 700.

The best way to find out is to do a "live chat" which can be found under "contact us" at the bottom of any page.There is also a button in the top right corner of the page as well that says "chat now"

I would look into something that is waterproof if I were you. Everybody takes spills, or has time where they want to sit/lay down for a bit and relax. And don't forget when it starts to snow too. All these instances are going to either make you wish you had a waterproof coat, or be glad that you do have one.

They have a great return system. If the jacket you order is unsuitable, they will accept your return with no questions asked and give you a full refund. You do however have to pay to have it shipped back to the store though.

Nope sorry man. They can't ship North Face to Canada. See if you can find someone you know that lives in the US, have them ship it to them, and then your friend can ship it to you.

No

Yes, there's a difference. Check out the size chart on the mens and see if you can figure out what size you would need. My guess would be somewhere around a medium.

No kits needed here. Just take the helmet out of the box, plug one side of the cord into your helmet, and the other side into your ipod and your jamming to music.

These are authentic. Backcountry sells quality products, and wouldn't mess around with anything fake.

Click on the "view sizing chart" button, and it tells the inseam of all the sizes of pants. They are all regular inseam lengths, so you can see what they all are.

Nope. If it's not in the pull down menu, it's not in stock.

Nope, sorry. If it's not in the pulldown menu above, it's not in stock.

Nope, if it's not in the pull down menu, they don't have it in stock.

You should be ok, it allows for some room for layering. And if for some reason it's not big enough you can order the Large and send back the Medium. They have the best return policy and customer service.

Nope.

Nope, especially if your coupon is for today only, there certainly won't be any mediums in.

Well it depends on what brand of binding you get, but just check out the size chart for the bindings you're looking at and it should tell you which size to purchase for you size 7 boot. But you should basically be able to buy just about anything.

You need the 28.5, its the same as 10.5

You would get cold if you didn't have any layers and the temps dropped below freezing forsure. This has no insulation in it, and is meant more to keep you dry.

No need to size down. The large would be fine.

Well it's a freestyle board, so you'll probably want a pair of freestyle bindings. But anything on here will be fine, there's no one set that is perfect. It's all about personal preference.

It's standard.

No, you won't need different bindings.

A bear.

They have the best return policy. If it doesn't fit, just let them know and they'll send you the other size you need right away. Then you can send your jacket back for a full refund. You'll have to pay to ship your's back, but they cover shipping to you. And if you order from here, every item has a lifetime warranty. So if anything ever goes wrong, they'll replace it, no questions asked.

These would be a medium to stiff flex. Any kind of snowboard boot will fit them, just make sure you order the right size. Check out the size chart to match your boot size.

Nope.

-30C is insanely cold. You're going to need something much warmer for that.

To backcountry?It's 1-800-409-4502

Sure.

They'll probably fit but you won't like the "fit." It's going to be tight and smash against your face. They do however make goggles to wear over glasses. You might want to look into a pair of those.

They'll probably fit but you won't like the "fit." It's going to be tight and smash against your face. They do however make goggles to wear over glasses. You might want to look into a pair of those.

Yeah, you might get a little warm in these if it bumps up to 60. They're breatheable but not that much. You might want to look into something different, or just don't wear these if it's going to be so warm.

Well it's hard to give an exact temperature for every person, but it should keep you plenty warm in temps above and around freezing. When things dip into the 20's and below, you may want to look into an extra layer (longsleeve shirt) to keep you plenty warm.

Shouldn't be too bad if you're moving around or near a campfire. You might need an extra layer or two if your idle or it's super cold out. It should be enough to have you covered though most of the time.

You are correct. They have the 4 front pockets, but no side ones for the hands.

These are just regular sizes. No wides, sorry.

So it would seem.----------Nope, you missed their 20% off sale. Sorry.

Just order what size you normally get in jackets. If it doesn't fit you can send it back and they'll send you the size you need. Backcountry has great customer service.

Yes, they are out of stock and probably won't get anymore in. However you could ask the live help just in case. They might be able to tell you.

Check out the size chart, it tells the inseam for every size.

On here it's $298. The $239 is probably when they had their 20% off sale which has ended. So it must be a typo in the google search you're using.

Sometimes you can find pants with a shorter inseam. But they don't have any shorter inseams in stock with this product.

I doubt it. You could ask live help, but I'm guessing it's sold out for the season.

Yep

This is what you need then. It has a nice vibrating alarm.

The oakley A Frames are the smallest of the line that Oakley has. They aren't meant to work with perscription glasses. Oakley does make goggles though that are meant for glasses underneath. I would look into those.

I have the 156 for my 158 board, and I would guess that if you bought the 166, you could arrange your skis and board to both fit with bindings attached.

You can shorten the straps but the pants stay the same.

You can shorten the straps but the pants stay the same.

Nope.

It's out of stock.

They fit pretty true to size. It might be a risk to buy the 9.5s. You could always try it and if they don't fit just send them back.

Well assuming the helmet and the kit are both the same size, just pull out the ear muff parts on the helmet. They snap in by the ears and velcro around the sides. And put in new audio ones.

You can check out the size chart above. I would guess that a 143 area would be about right.

You need a bag that is longer than 145, and it'll only hold one board with bindings.-------The 146 would be perfect for your 145. It usually fits a board a little longer than the length, so your 145 would fit it perfect. And you could cram a few things in there with it, like gloves, hat, maybe some pants.

No, they're pretty much the same.

I would think so. But just check the size charts and it'll tell you.

It's actually only water resistant. So probably not going to do what you want it too.

You bet, it's 10k waterproof. That's certainly not letting any water in. You'll stay plenty dry. And the seams are even taped, which makes it even better.

It's in the sizing chart. Should be under the "regular" inseam sizes.

It's really meant more to stay dry than it is to stay warm. However, if you layer underneath you should stay decently warm. I'm not sure what temperatures you talking about though, but if it's going to be pretty cold, you might want to look into that North Face Insulated Grace Jacket.

Last years helmet, there are only a few sizes left.----Yes, there is only a Small in Adult left.

Measure your head. I have a Smith helmet and the size chart given above is right on.

Most definitely should. I'd be patient though and wait til he wakes up and measure his head. It's worth getting the right size.

You should be able to go to any Safeway or Walmart etc and pick some up.

Ya, it should keep you plenty warm. It's super waterproof AND insulated. You shouldn't be getting cold.

Just add it to your chart, fill in your address, and it will tell you your options of shipping and the prices.

Ya, it'd work fine. It shouldn't roast you by anymeans if that's what you're wondering.

Yep, just throw it in on a light cycle though.

Nope, sorry.

This comes down to personal preference for most. I prefer a rose lens for all around though.Honestly, grab any pair off of SAC, tramdock, or WM...You can get "general" gogs for as little as $10!You won't find oakleys quite that cheap on whiskey, steepandcheap, and tramdock, but you will find some amazing deals. Like stated above, it's really personal preference. But if it helps, I like using the Persimmon lenses for an all around choice. And they run pretty cheap compared to some of the other ones you can buy from Oakley.

I'm not sure what the max stance would be, but the 22 inch stance is with bindings centered on each side. So I'm sure you could add a few inches pretty easily to the stance.

Yep

143.16. It's on sale.

Hey, Grant. If I'm looking for glasses to last me a while, I go for a more substantial frame. I guess it totally depends on your M.O. Are you hard on stuff? If you're hooked on these glasses, know that Oakleys always come in non-scratching cloth bags and zipper-sided hard cases. If you wrap them up in their protection every time you take them off, they'll last longer for sure. Good luck.----------Keep this in mind too bud. If you buy these from backcountry, they have a lifetime warranty on them. So if they break, you can send them back. So will they last you a long time? Thanks to backcountry's warranty, they'll last forever.

These aren't a baggy pant, but I wouldn't say they're only meant for those with skinny legs. An average sized leg will have be plenty comfortable enough of a fit.

Yes, a 6.5 in US womens, is a 24 in mondo. The 24 would be what you need.

Not currently.

It's pretty warm due to the fact that you're going to stay dry, and it has a fleece jacket inside. If you have a longsleeve shirt on plus this jacket, you should be able to withstand just about any cold temperature.

No, not so much. If it starts raining, you're going to get wet.

Ya, you can throw it in the wash. I'd go with the gentle cycle though.

They run pretty much true to size, so you could go with either a small or medium. If the size you order doesn't fit well, just send it back and backcountry will send you the other size. Their customer service is one of the best.

Yes, you're going to want to wax your board. It's really pretty important to keep it in good shape. Waxing with an iron opens up the pours on your board and allows the wax to get into them enabling you to glide across the snow much faster. A coat of wax also helps protect your board from getting damaged, and from oxidating. You'll want an iron that has a temperature setting on it so you know how hot it is, because you can ruin your board if it gets too hot, and waxing won't work if it's not hot enough. As for wax, I use the Swix stuff they have on here. It's like $10 and it even tells you how hot to set your iron to wax w/ it. You can youtube "how to wax a snowboard" and find out how all the rest works.

Click on the "view sizing chart" above, and you can find out what size to buy.

Ya, these are pretty warm actually. You shouldn't be getting cold hands. You may however want to look into gloves/mittens that have a battery powered hand warmer in them if you hands seem to always be cold no matter what you wear.

It should be ok. You definitely don't want them to be too short.

Regular

Well it's certainly not the warmest of coats. But it should be warm enough for your everyday commute from place to place. If the wind picks up and the temps drop below freezing, it's going to require some layering such as a longsleeve or sweatshirt underneath.

I responded to your other question on the K2 Zeppelin, and this one is an easier choice if you end up picking the Custom X. I would definitely go with the 164 here. Also, this board is a wide model, and the other isn't. If you have a size 12 or larger you probably would be better going with this one because the "waist width" is larger. It will accommodate you big kicks much better.

A review below states that "I am 6'1" 180 lbs and don't like my gear fitting tight and the Medium fit perfect." So I think he already answered your question. The description also states that the pants are more of a baggier fit, and are also a bit longer, so I wouldn't worry about them being too short. And if they are, you can send them back and they'll send you a large. Backcountry has great customer service.

I would go with a Large. It offers a slightly bigger inseam than the medium, and is still a reasonable size for your waist.

I would go with a Medium.

No, this coat isn't as warm as what the arctic parka would be.

I'm guessing you mean untighten in terms of after you've locked in. The point of these is to adjust them while you're not in them and then lock into them to see if they are where you want them. If they're to tight, undo them, loosen the straps, and try locking in again.

Full Zip

Yep, backcountry has the greatest customer service. You can send it back and they'll send you another size if you want.

The lens is glass and polycarbonate.

Yep, the youth model should fit any size head 48-53cm. So that head circumference would be perfect.

Nope sorry, not in stock.

I would go with the 7. You certainly don't want to end up with them being too small.

I would go with the size that corresponds with your exact measurement. I certainly wouldn't go smaller. Maybe a size up, but stay away from going with a smaller size.

Nope, sorry, no XL.

There was apparently a typo that got fixed because it's showing up at 47.96-67.96 now.

Yes, it's pretty warm. The 180g of insulation certainly helps out. With a little bit of layering such as under armor, or a long sleeve shirt/sweatshirt, you're going to stay plenty warm when it drops down below freezing.

Sorry, no XL black boundary run pant in stock.

Staying dry shouldn't be a problem considering the 10k waterproofing, and the fully taped seams. As far as staying warm in the 10 degree days, it's probably going to require some layering on your part. A pair of underarmor pants, or sweat pants, etc. underneath these and you should be good to go.

Nope, sorry.

I don't see a 143.50 anywhere. It shows up as 178 in a search and on the page both.

Probably. If you're going to lay in the snow, you need something water proof, not water resistant.

It's an extension on gloves that goes farther up your wrist. It's purpose would be to keep the snow out, and keep your hand/wrist warmer.

It's an elastic strap/band that snaps together around your waist snugly, and is at the same time attached to the inside of your coat. It cinches around your waist sort of like a belt. This then keeps the snow/powder from getting in up through your coat. You'll love them, they're quite nice to have. And you don't always have to wear it. If you're using the coat to walk around (leisure) the powder skirt simply attaches to the inside of the coat and stays out of the way.

Interesting. It must be some typo. I don't know their policy on that, but I would talk with the live help and see if you can get it for the $79.96 price as listed in the search.

These should work, just make sure you have a wide board (atleast 26cm waist) to accomodate your big feet.

The fire lenses block a little more light, making the bright sunny days a little easier on your eyes. The persimmon lens is more of an all around lens. It's made for more overcast days, but still isn't to straining on your eyes on the bright sunny days. The fire lenses are also reflective looking from the outside if this is something you like or want. So if your eyes are more sensitive to light, then they're worth the money, but in my case, I prefer the persimmon lens in more conditions than the fire lens.

I own this coat and love it. It's not a baggy fit at all. It's roomy like a normal coat should be, but not excessively baggy one bit.

It does, they just don't have it in stock. If you wait, they may get another shipment in and have some.

Ya, you can throw it in the wash.

If you're a 9 in shoes, then generally you're a 9 in snow boots.

Well it depends on the layering you have underneath. This isn't a super warm snow suit by any means. At 40 below as you ask, you'd better be layered like crazy or you're going to be freezing. If you're going to be out in really cold weather, I'd look for something else.

142 in uk pounds

Nope, just the regular size.

Well they only have a size 14 and 15 in stock with this boot, so you can't mess up by too much. The basic rule of thumb is to where the size you wear in shoes. If you're a 14.5, go with the 15.

Pretty simple bud. First, before you get bindings or a board, make sure they're compatible with each other. Not all bindings fit all boards. If they're both the same brand though you're ok. But the bindings will have a number of holes in them. You simply line them up with the holes on the board, take a phillips screwdriver, and screw them in tight. Not much to it really. It's pretty self evident once you have everything sitting in front of you.

no

More than likely. Just double check the size chart to make sure the measurements will work for you.

This jacket isn't going to be very warm on cold snowy days. Especially those days below freezing.

Well I don't know what you consider a "regular" board. But what makes a powder board, or a freeride board different are a few things. First, the stance is usually set back an inch or so to put more weight in the back of the board so the front glides up through the powder, and doesn't dig down into it. Sometimes they can be directional boards as well, meaning they're meant to go only one way or not meant to ride switch. Lastly you'll want a longer board than you would a regular one due to having more surface area to stay afloat in the powder.

Not if your definition of cold days is the same as mine. These are what I would consider "fair weather" terrain park gloves. Your cold days are going to demand something much warmer.

Considering the extra insulation in the arms (80g) and body (100g) it's going to keep you plenty warm. And the 10k waterproofing will certainly keep you dry as well which is important due to the fact that the fastest way to get cold, it to get wet.

Well it depends on a few things. First, the type of riding you like to do. The longer boards will float over the powder better and be more stable while the shorter ones will be easier to control in the terrain park and depending on you skill level, on the slope as well. I would probably go with the 152, considering it's not much of a change from what you're used to already, (just 2cm longer) and it'll be a little more stable for you.

2 cm makes very little difference, with such little length added the side cut and wieght are pretty much exactly the same. Just get whichever one looks coolest and call it good.Keep in mind your may not get the color that you choose. Burton makes different colored boards for the same length. Just wanted to make sure you were aware.

No, you're gonna freeze in these things. They're meant for spring and fall temps. Defineately not for below freezing.

Sorry, they have no red ones in stock.

They don't have a large in stock, but you could certainly check the live help and ask them if they could find out if they'll be getting any shipments in of them.

Wind resistant, yes. Wind proof, no.

Negative

My buddy has the same BIG noggin, and most beanies fit him, but don't look so good cuz of his big head. This Swix one isn't overly big by anymeans, so will it fit, yes. But it's probably going to be a little more snug than you'd hope for.

This certainly isn't the warmest jacket out there but should keep you plenty warm most of the time. And for those extra cold nasty days, a layer or two underneath and you would be set to go. For your MA winters, a review down below says it keeps her warm for "95% of Boston's winter." And at 33 reviews and counting, with an average of 4/5 stars, I'd say you're pretty safe getting this. Keep in mind though that it's not waterproof and has no down in it for warmth which is why I state at the beginning that there's certainly warmer jackets out there.

According to the size chart, as I'm sure you've looked at, the large looks like the best bet for you. Worst case scenerio is that it's too big and all you have to do is send it back and they'll send you a medium. (They'll actually send you the medium without waiting to receive the large you sent back, kinda nice when you want it asap) Backcountry has the BEST customer service.

Tough decision in my opinion. Both are great boards. Here's what to consider. To directly answer your question, the Custom X is more of the "all mountain" board which is what you described as wanting to do. However, money wise the TRS BTX is $160 cheaper AND it has some pretty nice awards backing it. Also, if it matters to you, with the Burton Custom X, you have no control over what color of board you'll get. So if I were you, I'd probably go with the Lib Tech. Both are great boards though, you won't be disappointed with either.

This board is amazing anywhere in the park. And it's built to last. The manufacture has a 2 year warranty on it, so you know they built it tough. It has great response, and feel. Like the reviews say, you won't regret having this one.

Well obviously the fit depends what size you get, but this is made for a more "active" fit if that helps any.It's meant to be more of a compression fit than a baggy fit. Not skin tight like underarmor, but snug.

Ya, I weigh 170 and am 6 ft, so I bought Large just because of my longer arms and taller frame. But there's plenty of room inside for me, so you should be fine with a medium.

You're probably better off going with the Small assuming your height is not too far above average.

It's hard to explain how green something is, but maybe try searching for these on the internet to find other pictures. Usually the picture is pretty accurate though in determining how it's going to look when you actually get them.

It will definately improve your traction. They certainly aren't going to grip like some of the other nicer crimpons on this site, but you shouldn't have any problem walking without sliding. The spikes on these still grip fairly well. If you're looking into more of a long journey/hike you might think about looking into something that is more permanent. But the nice thing about these is their versatility. They can be taken on and off without any hassle, and also used on different shoes.

They're plenty durable, but not super thick. You're probably going to have to throw on some underarmor on the colder days to stay warm. But they're certainly thicker than a pair of wind/rain pants.

I have a Smith Holt helmet and it has plenty of room to fit just about any goggle. I have both Oakley crowbars, and Oakley wisdom goggles and they are both pretty large goggles and they fit with my helmet just fine. So you should be good to go with these goggles as well.

As far as brands go, most all companies make a decent terrain park board. Anything you can buy on this site is typically pretty good. Just keep in mind, you get what you pay for. The more $$$, generally the better the board. If you're looking for a good park board make sure the description says its a "freestyle" board. This Forum board above would be great for the park.

This really depends on your personal preference. If you like your skis to be a little longer, you'll have increased speed and stability along with more ease to float over the fresh powder. The shorter length will be easier to control and manuever. You would be fine with either size really.

Around the waist? No.

Polartec fleece. This is a nicer type of fleece and is more durable.

I would get the M because there's nothing worse than having a jacket that is too short in the sleeves or too short at the waist.

Yes, on backcountryoutlet.com or dogfunk.comSearch for "Burton Long Trail Down Jacket Women's."

Go to backcountryoutlet.com and search "Burton LTD Long Trail Down Jacket Women's." They have two different ones on sale there.

O ya, this will be fine for snowboarding. The difference in the colors is for what temperature you plan to be riding in. Click on the sizing chart and it tells you what temps are for what wax.

Ya, the 162 will fit you fine. It's all a matter of preference really, but this size is right in the middle of what you should have. And the width of the 162 is 25.6 cm which will be just fine for your 11.5 boot.

Riding hard means you don't just stay on the white fluffy stuff. You're out boarding multiple times a week, hitting rails, ramps, pipes, logs, and the occasional pain in the butt rock that's sticking up through through the snow. It's like driving your car like grandma, or driving it like a street racer. Grandma's car is going to hold up longer.

Try Burton Custom. They're your best starting bet. These bindings are a little more specific to riding types including the Cartel, C60, and TriadYou could go with the Burton Customs as well. I have those and love them. They work all over the mountain just fine, and they're a little cheaper than some of the others.

You can take this on the hill, but remember its only water-resistant, not water-proof. So the first thing your hands get wet, they're gonna get cold. But this isn't the glove for the super cold days. It's meant for park and pipe sessions, not 6 inches of powder.

To wax your skis.---------------------You don't. You can get a good quality, reliable iron for less than half as much. This is for pros who are racing for $$$ and have to have everything "perfect."

Due to its medium flex, it would be more of an all mountain boot.

It's an all mountain, but definately equipped to handle the park as well.

The bag is just a "women's color." It's not meant to be gender specific.

Well, if you want these you're going to have to get a size 12.5 because they no longer have a size 12. If you normally wear a size 12 shoe, and plan on wearing your thick boarding socks you should be good to go. I wouldn't worry about the 12.5 being too large.

Well it depends on how much you plan on progressing and of course how much you're willing to spend. If you want to get really good, and have the money, I would invest in a nicer board that won't hold you back as you progress. If you're just gonna go once or twice a year, you can cut back and get a cheaper one. Just use the basic rule of thumb, that you get what you pay for. So normally, the more expensive, the nicer the board. With you being 110 pounds you need a board somewhere in the range of 140-147cm. Depending on what type of boarding you like to do. If you're going to be in the park all the time doing tricks, aim to the shorter end. If you like the backcountry and all powder, then shoot closer to the 147. If you like both, obviously you'd be somewhere inbetween (143, 144) If you're still growing, factor in that in as well. So if you're stuck between two sizes, go with the bigger one. As far as what board to get, this site sells pretty good snowboards. You can't really go wrong with much on here. Read some reviews, find the one you like that looks good and matches your size needs, and go for it!

I've seen people actually drill holes in their board and put nuts and bolts in to stop this/fix this. I suppose you could do that. It would be similar to the rivets in some of K2's ski line. Also keep in mind that this board has a one year warranty with K2, and a LIFETIME warranty with backcountry. So if your board starts peeling out of no where for no reason, you can send it back.

Burton bindings are mounted to burton boards with three swrews, but they have much more than three screw holes. Burton baseplates are very versatile, they allow for may different stances on any board, I have my burton Freestyles mounted on my k2 right now, and they work like a dream.I also have Burton bindings for my Forum board, so they're versatile enough to fit those as well.

This jacket is probably your average to maybe a little below average when it comes to warmth. It does have a liner in it but no extra down insulation or anything. If your moving around and your blood is pumping you can probaby get by in some pretty cold weather with a sweatshirt or longsleeve shirt underneath. But on those frigid cold, windy days, you're probably going to be chilly.

The waterproof rating is 10k and/or 10,0000mm. The insulation is with 550-fill down. So it's going to keep you plenty warm.

It depends on the brand. I'm pretty sure they can ship Carhartt though. Just add this item to your cart, procede to checkout, enter your address and country, and it will tell you how much it costs to ship to you.

None is visible. There may just be a typo.Ya, this is just a typo. Just pick which size you need, they're all the same color.

It's all ready to go. And yes, it comes out of both earpieces.The audio set comes with one cord that has one end where you plug in to the helmet (left earpiece) and the other end has two connecters. One is your normal sized headphone plug, and the other is a slightly smaller one built to use with certain cell phones.

I would definately sign in to their "live help" and ask one of the people working there. It's a possibility that they might have goofed on their pictures because the "black fur" actually has fur on them, while the white and pink pictures don't, even though the selection menu describes them with fur.

Well, a lens can actually have both. You can have iridium lenses that aren't polarized, and polarized lens's that also have an iridium coating. Polarized lenses block glare that is magnified by flat surfaces like water and pavement. So basically they eliminate glare, haze, and distortion. Adding an iridium coating helps to reduce even more glare and improve depth perception.

Your size 11 boot is probably boardline of being too small. If you can find a board with normal waist width of something less than 255 mm you might be better off. However if you really like this board you would probably be ok. Remember this is one of Burton's lower line boards so if you're planning on excelling your skills to the next level you may want to upgrade. But overall, for just messing around and cruisin the slopes you should be ok.

Yes, its slightly concave and has a smaller kicktail in the back.Check out this site, they have a bunch of different views.http://www.tactics.com/never-summer/norad-complete-longboard?src=gglb

Unfortunately Alycium doesn't have a size chart. The only size judgement you can get about size is from the review above.

Hopefully this helps. It's from their site:Calculating International Shipping RatesSo you want to find out what your international shipping charges will be. First, add the item or items to your cart. Then proceed to checkout (don’t worry—proceeding to checkout doesn’t make you obligated to purchase anything). Enter your address in the billing and shipping fields. Once you change the country, the page will show you the shipping charges.

Sorry, it's typically an agreement with Burton that they can only sell to addresses in the U.S.

Yep, sure does

Well you can always wear a belt. I am taller but have a smaller waist and normally wear a belt to take care of things. It also looks like these pants can be cinched up with the two velcro straps on the sides.And I'm not sure what you mean by large legs, as in tall legs, or bigger in circumference. If you're tall, then these are good because it is a slim fit. If it's the other case I'd look into getting a baggier fitting pant.

These pants are what Burton calls a "Sig Fit" which makes them a little baggier. Therefore this also makes them them a little longer.You can also always get a size bigger which will be longer, and then just cinch them up with the internal waist adjustment.As far as the 'tall fit' that Burton advertises on their website, I don't see available here.

No, these are anything but skinny. The Ronin's are the baggiest fit that Burton makes.

Check this page out:http://www.backcountry.com/store/newsletter/a342/Whats-the-deal-with-these-waterproof-ratings.html

These actually fit how they say they will. HUGE! Sessions tends to be quite baggy and there's no exception here. You can cinch them up however, but only to a certain extent. So don't buy a size too much bigger than what your measurements are.

It depends on how cold the weather is and how much moving you're doing. They have no extra insulation in them, so on those sub zero degree days, you'll probably need some extra layers. However, it is waterproof, and usually if you're really cold, it's because you're wet.These are plenty big enough to fit a pair of sweats underneath incase you need them on those cold days.

I have a Burton Wheelie Locker which is just slightly bigger and could fit two boards with bindings in it if I wanted to. However I never would do this though because of the way you'd have to pack them to fit. It'd be risking damaging my board and/or bindings.Now in your case, with you son's smaller board (130cm) his bindings shouldn't fall onto the same place as yours do on the board. So its quite possible you could pack both in and still be ok. Worst case scenerio, you just take a screwdriver and 2 mins of your time to remove one set of bindings. It's not a big deal.

It has a sintered base, so it's going to go fast. A lot of your speed is determined by how you take care of it though. If you never wax it, no board is fast. But after a fresh coat of wax, you should fly.And for the terrain park, it'll be ok. Remember it's an all mountain board though, so it's meant for the park, AND the backcountry on those awesome powder days. So if all you do is hang out in the park, I'd maybe look into something different.

Yes, these will be just fine for the boarding you're wanting to do. They can definately take a beating and of course have the lifetime warranty on them. Plus if something breaks, you can send them back to backcountry as well.

Usually, if last years model has a big problem with something, they fix it in the next years model. So if the Auto's all kept snapping last year, they more than likely resolved this issue.Unfortunately you're not going to know until halfway through the season as everybody's begins breaking again and the negative reviews start coming in. I wouldn't take the chance if I were you though. There's nothing worse than a broken binding up on the mountain.

height, weight and riding style are factors. the bigger and heavier someone is the larger the board. Im 6'0 175 and I like to do alot of freestle, I prefer a 155cm board. my roommate is 6'2 215 and is all mountain and he rides a 160cm. so his dimensions and riding style are skill are what will determine the proper size boardSince you probably aren't going to be able to find out much information from him since it's for his birthday, I would click on the size chart up above, find his weight and then you'll know what size range to pick from. Freestyle means he would hit the terrain park more often, freeride means he would like to fly down the mountain on powder days. If he likes both, just go with something in the middle.

no this is a board for riders that are like 5 year board. its 60 % freestyle and 40% all mountinIn my opinion, I would say any board is a good first year board. If you can afford it, go for it. Because as a beginner, if you pick up snowboarding fast, you're going to want something nicer as you improve. With this board, you'll already have that. This way you don't have to worry about your board holding you back when you start owning the slopes!

Well of the three you have narrowed down to, for park and pow, these are all made for both. All three are an all-mountain binding, however the Rome Strut is going to have a little firmer feel to it. If price is a concern, the Strut's are obviously the cheapest as well.So other than a slightly firmer feel in the Strut's, it comes down to price and which one you think looks the coolest.

I think the sizing chart is correct. I measured my head the way the chart says and ordered what size corresponded with it. If you're halfway inbetween 2 sized, I'd definately go up a size though.

It comes with a cord where one end plugs into the left earpiece, then like 10 or so inches down is the volume/mute control device with a clip on it that you can use to attach to the top of your shirt or coat. Then at the other end of the cable are two jacks. One is the normal size jack for headphones/ipod/mp3, and the other is a slightly smaller jack for certain cell phones.

It comes with a cable that plugs into the left ear piece of the helmet, and then the other end of the cable has to jacks. One for your normal headphones, and another smaller jack for certain cell phones and what not.

Yes, this iron would get plenty hot enough to melt beads. I have one similar to this and it goes up into the 150 degree Celsius range which would be over 300 degrees F.
