Rating for this product: 5 January 19, 2009

this is my new fav jacket. it fits true to size and the details on there are amazing. i got the black w/ pink one and the picture doesnt do the jacket justice. the length of this jacket is perfect... its not too short and its not too long. if youre looking for the perfect snowboarding jacket then look no further.

DAKINE Boot Locker - 4200cu in

Rating for this product: 5 January 7, 2009

this bag is big but not THAT big. i use this for day trips on the weekends when i head up to bear mtn. its big enough for a change of clothes, snowboarding jacket, goggle (2), gloes (2), impact gear, and other stuff that you might or might not need. this is def not big enough for an extended trip, overnight might work... depending on how much bathroom stuff you like to bring. oh, the boot compartment is awesome. i can totally throw away my old "boot bag" now.

Rating for this product: 5 January 5, 2009

i love the style. the sound quality is pretty decent. this beats wearing headphones because it still allows me to hear whats going on around me. it took me a while to get used to the helmet, at first it wasnt too comfortable but now i really love it. fits most goggles without the clip on straps. i used a spy soldier and they go great with this helmet. no gaps.

The North Face Gotham Down Jacket - Women's

December 17, 2008

its puffy but not too puffy, i dont look like a total ball when i wear it, however; it is a down jacket... its supposed to be puffy, but not overly so. i wouldnt recommend wearing this if youre packing a few extra pounds... because that will make you look a little bit too puffy.

Rating for this product: 5 December 16, 2008

i disagree with hobo66, i didn't find these shades heavy... not at all. when i first ordered them i thought they were going to be heavy but they are in fact fairly light. way lighter than any of my spy sunglasses. it comes with a really cool case. these fit my face perfectly, but i have a pretty small face. i just wish the lenses were even bigger.... =P

Rating for this product: 5 December 16, 2008

i swore to myself i would never wear anything else on the slopes except my for spy soldiers.... that is until i purchased these babies. they are super comfortable and even i have to admit... oakley makes better lenses than spy. my only complaint would be that i keep snagging my hair on the strap clip.

Rating for this product: 4 December 16, 2008

i dont know what it is with k2's boots, but i got a pair of the secret last year and rode it for one season and the leather is already cracking and the rubber on the toe is coming apart and the loops that you lace the shoe laces through are about to go. its a really comfortable boot. its got a really cute design too but i dunno... maybe its a quality thing. i think i'm about to retire my secrets after the end of this season... that is, if they even last that long.

Rating for this product: 5 December 16, 2008

i think the sound quality is pretty good, not as good as bose of course but youre getting a little more than what you pay for with the lowrider. i love the colorful design, its overall a good bang for the buck. but i dont get how people can snowboard with these, there are paddings at the top and when you strap these down to your goggles... it just feels really weird. or maybe i just have an odd shaped head. i use these when i travel.

Oakley Glacier Freeze Jacket - Women's

Oakley Glacier Freeze Jacket - Women's

Rating for this product: 5 March 7, 2008

this jacket is very similar to the Oakley spontaneous jacket. this one however is a bit more plain (detailwise) but everything else is almost identical. i bought the hazel one, and the liner is not white, its more of a khaki/beige color. fits a little baggy, so size down if you don't want that park fit thing going on. very warm, the liner is sooo soft, the water proofing is great, i was able to stay dry even though i was crash landing most of my jumps and swimming in the snow. its a great jacket well worth the price!

awesome shades for the slopes

Oakley Riddle Sunglasses

Oakley Riddle Sunglasses

Rating for this product: 5 March 3, 2008

i absolutely love my Oakley riddle. these glasses are great for taking up to the slopes, especially on those really sunny days. they do a great job of shading my eyes on the drive up to big bear at 7 in the morning. remove the goggles during lunch and pop these babies on, i inhale my hot dog and Redbull/vodka in style. there are absolute no distortion of vision what so ever, so just in case you leave your goggles at home, i have no doubt that these make a great pair of goggle replacements. the frame is also super durable. these are the best shades for snowboarding trips.

Pro-tec IPS Elbow Pads

Rating for this product: 3 February 29, 2008

i got the small and being a girl, my arms are a lot smaller. these fit pretty well under a jacket. but since my arms are smaller they kept sliding down. this is def good enough for catching edges going down the slope but i would go for something more heavy duty for the boxes/pipes and bigger jumps. bottomline: not bulky, pretty comfortable, but not for anything too hardcore.

Oakley Spontaneous Jacket - Women's

Oakley Spontaneous Jacket - Women's

Rating for this product: 5 February 29, 2008

this jacket is awesome. Oakley never disappoints me with their snowboarding jackets/pants. i got the white one, then almost regretted the decision thinking it might be too plain. however: not true. this jacket has a a lot of cute details. buttons, seams, and other little details here and there. i love the powder skirt, it keeps the snow from going down my pants. this jacket fits kind of big. i got the small and it was kinda baggy for me. esp without the liner the jacket was even more baggy. so size down if you a more feminine fit. my only complaint is that there are no hand warmer/guards. i wish it came with those so i can also keep the snow from going into my gloves. great jacket, well worth the money.

686 Times Dakine Snowboard Pant - Women's

Rating for this product: 5 September 24, 2007

i haven't had a chance to board in these yet but the quality is amazing. they fit like a dream. all the other snowboarding pants that I've had are either too baggy and made it look like i was wearing a long skirt or it weren't baggy enough. the rise is also perfect, it's not a high rise like something out of the 80s and its not super low where you'd be too exposed. i'm 5'5 120, normally i wear size 2 (in Old Navy) and size 2 or 4 in American Eagle, i got a size small for these pants and i still had a lot of room to work with. if you're looking for the perfect snowboarding pants this is it.

Horrible. The arm holes are huge; I'd have to wear a separate tank top underneath. The sizing is all wrong. Normally I'm a small. I stand at 5'5 120, but I think I should have gone xxs in this case. Order two sizes down.

Rating for this product: 3 May 31, 2007

yea sure, it heats up fast and very compact. but i noticed that the more i used the GCS the more the top lid would shrink. right now the lid its pretty much deformed and unless i get one of my guy friends to cap the pot for me... there is no way i can cap the pot with that deformed lid. i could have sworn it said on the instructions : "for a faster boil put on lid". theres my 2 cents.
