Ride VXN Snowboard Binding - Women's

Ride VXN Snowboard Binding - Women's

Rating for this product: 4 January 20, 2010

Great binding for the $. Replaced last years Ride LXH that were not near as nice. The gummy toe caps fit her boots great. Also on the LXH her boot in a size 7 was a real tight fit in the small size LXH. In the small size VXN she has plenty of room. Oh and she says the ratchets are much better on the VXN too!

Smith Holt Skullcandy Audio Helmet

November 23, 2009

The Holt comes with the Skullcandy Single Shot. If you buy the audio together it's cheaper for the "single shot." The cell/mp3 "double shot" speaker setup could be done to the Holt though if you buy it separately. If you get the Smith Hustle audio it already has the double shot setup.

Great Helmet, Audio Lacking...

Smith Holt Skullcandy Audio Helmet

Smith Holt Skullcandy Audio Helmet

Rating for this product: 3 November 23, 2009

After some use I now get static/cut out turning my head or hitting bumps etc. I have narrowed it down to the ear pad to cord connection. It was always loose there even brand new. It's very annoying now and I barely use the audio because of this. Also the sound is good but the volume control is super sensitive and bad with gloves on. After some use the mute button is being a lot more touchy too. It doesn't seem as loud now as when I got it but maybe that's just me. It definitely should be louder though!! The helmet is of course super solid and fit great etc it's just the audio that sucks. Afterall this is a review of the audio Holt. The Holt alone I would give 5 stars!!

Rating for this product: 4 November 23, 2009

This is a great kit to get you started at home! Comes with 2 scrapers, ptex, edge tool, file etc... The only thing lacking is a good base brush. The included scotch brite is cool but they wear out so a brush would be better. Other then that it works perfect for getting you going for tuning at home!

390's Rock!

Rome 390 Snowboard Binding

Rome 390 Snowboard Binding

Rating for this product: 5 November 23, 2009

I have a set of last years and reviewed them...I bought a new set this year and they do not disappoint again. The straps are super comfy, ratchets work great, endlessly adjustable etc... My only and I mean only gripe is the lean adjuster on the high back. If not touched it can get pretty hard to loosen and adjust sometimes needing "tool" assistance. The other day one of my Union Force base-plate washer snapped and I needed a spare. Guess what, ROME is nice enough to include an extra with the 390's and I used it. Thanks Rome. If you are considering the 390 it is a sweet binding. If you are considering it or the Union Force get the 390's!!!!

Eh, They could be better!

Union Force Snowboard Binding

Rating for this product: 3 November 23, 2009

I have a hard time even giving them even 3 stars really. I don't understand why they are praised so much and maybe it's just me. I bought them only by recommendations of other people. The base-plate is nice, heel hoop sweet, ratchets and high-backs are awesome but there are a couple design flaws IMO. The toe straps suck and did not fit 3 different boots I own at all. They would slip no matter how much I cranked them. The plastic un-attached hoop of the toe cup doesn't really tighten to anything and should be smaller. Also the screws that retain the ladders and straps, if you run them loose enough to swing around they will eventually unscrew themselves from swinging your straps up and down. It happened to me after 3 days. I traded mine to a friend and sure wish they fit his toe's and he has better luck with them than me!! Oh and I won't write a review unless I have actually used a product in it's function. I read so many binding reviews talking about how they were on your carpet...blah! Take them to the hill or don't waste the time writing!!!

Awful Boots!

Ride Deuce Snowboard Boot - Men's

Ride Deuce Snowboard Boot - Men's

Rating for this product: 1 June 7, 2009

I started this past season on this boot. It was uncomfortable, had pinch points, didn't hold my heel well, the inner laces are NOT in the liner but a cuff in the boot, crappy inner liner lace retainer, material wears super fast, not very think, crappy velcro retainer on to of liners. Overall they sucked. I bought a cheap pair of Northwave's and they were 100x's better. I rode these boots again today to try the Contraband bindings and remembered why I quit wearing them. Anyone want a great deal on a barely used pair of 11 mens DFC Deuce Boa Coilers? :)

Rating for this product: 5 June 4, 2009

Bought these for my GF and she loves them. The print on the white ones is a ton of little boots, looks pretty cool. She wears a 7 and they fit great true to size. One thing is the tread in front hangs out the sides a little and makes it pretty wide and a tight fit in a small binding but still is fine.

Well, at the start of the season I bought these and they rocked for the first 8-10 days. After that they really started fogging bad. It was pretty annoying and I ended up hating my Anon's, I am kind of sick of Burton. This year I bought these goggles, a RED HiFi Helmet and RED Ninjaclava to wear together. Mind you these are all Burton items and together fit like CRAP! Sorry BC but my Anon's are coming back to you and going to try some Smith's next!

I swapped boards last weekend with a buddy...My NS Evo with Forum Republics for his shorter NS Evo with 390's. I have to say I loved the bindings. Super comfy. Responsive yet soft enough to get your jib on. Felt very close to my setup with the other binders. I am looking for a pair of Neon colored 390's for my Artifact now!!! Wish BC still had this years 390 in a larger size!

The MTX worked great on an icy early morning slope. I have rode quite a few different boards this year and it was definitely my favorite cambered board for the price.

First off it's a sweet jacket! Mine is black and did NOT have the funky rainbow colored rings on the front, which I was stoked about! The liner however is purple as can be. The purple like you see on the inside of certain "Vampire" capes used for Halloween!!! It's a total "mid weight" shell IMO. Definitely not a thin one and definitely not down. Perfect for me. Plain, simple and functional. Baggier fit but not crazy like some. Only wish it had zip-in. Get it!!

Rating for this product: 4 March 19, 2009

The shorts are meant to look somewhat baggy and they do. Hip, thigh and tailbone padding. Well placed but kinda loose. They should have built the padding on the inner liner. The sizing is really weird. Talks about extended etc. There is nothing to extend. They tie and fit like a board short. I wear a 34 waist and got a M and they're a bit snug but I imagine the pads would be all over the place in a large. Keeping the M for me!!

This is my 2nd set of customs of this year. I bought the clear/frosted white ones but wanted the black ones. as soon as I saw them hit Brociety they were mine. I now have a spare pair! They are a decently wide binding for the size. meaning they will fit your moon boots fine! The cap straps are super nice and I haven't had any problems like I've read about the ratchets. They are Burton so if someone had ratchet problems Burton would replace them for free. If you are looking for a great really comfortable freestyle/all mtn binding these are a great choice!

Not the most comfortable. The new style ratchets on these are light years ahead of previous RIDE stuff. The bindings are stiff and for a reason.

Ok bought this as a mid layer to wear under my shell for snowboarding. I ordered a men's Large and it was a little snug and way to short. No way to ever tuck it in etc. The fabric was nice and it seemed warm just trying it on. I threw it in the wash on gentle cold and it fell apart after the first wash. The left sleeve cuff where the fabric is rolled over and sewn came completely apart. The threads and stitching in the left armpit came completely apart now. So I never got to wear it and it's going back. I would totally try another one if it was a little longer.
