Let me start out by saying these gloves are AWESOME, they fit great, look good and the low pro cuff is sweet. Good for me down to about 10-15 degrees, then I switch to mittens.

The biggest problem I have with these gloves is that they ripped in the crease where the fingers meet. I only have like 10 days on this pair so for them to be destroyed already is ludicrous. Like somebody else already said, they need to redesign them with more serious stitching that wont rip when put under stress. I bought leather gloves because I use the hell out of any gloves I have and want them to last, but what is the point if the gloves just rip at the seams? A chain is only as strong as its weakest link.

Overall, I am disappointed with these, I really really wish they didn't fall apart because up until then I loved them. By far the coolest gloves I have ever owned.

I bought this jacket not really knowing much about it, since I needed a jacket to ski in until my LDC jacket comes in the mail. Skied all day in the rain at killington and it kept me warm and dry with only a base layer on underneath, I can't say that about the nomis pants that I was wearing. The print on the jacket is really nice and it fits perfect, I am 6 ft 180 and like my outerwear pretty baggy and the XL is great. If you want super steeze or you are bigger/taller I would recommend the XXL

I can already tell this jacket is going to be something that I wear all the time, super stoked on it.

Got this in XL and it fits BIG. I'm 6 ft 180 lbs and like my sweatshirts big and baggy, but don't like wearing a dress. Its about as big as I would like it to be, but definitely not too big. Fits larger than my XXL Oakley hoodie. For those of you who were thinking of sizing up... don't, there is no need.

Other than it running large, there isn't much to say about this sweatshirt, its simple, soft and warm. All you need in a sweatshirt.

These skis are super fun. The rockered profile makes them really easy to do butters, presses and noseblocks. They are wicked fun in the park, similar to invaders/ anthems in the sense that they are symmetrical noodles, but the rocker makes them ski like nothing else. You have to ski it to know what it feels like, but they are great skis. The rocker also makes them float pow decent, but they are still center mounted skis so they aren't really meant for it. I do ski them all mountain from time to time, but I have another pair of stiffer skis for when I really want to rip. If these are your only ski's I wouldn't get them unless all you are 100% rails or close to it. They do ok on hardpack and groomers, you'll be able to control them fine, but at high speeds they get a bit chattery, but what do you expect fro a ski where the tips and tails are sticking way up in the air? On jumps, the pop is a little weird and hard to get used to due to the rocker, I feel like I'm popping off my toes more than my tails like in a ski with regular camber, and I start to feel a bit uncomfortable on jumps that are bigger than 30-35 ft, because they are so soft and the rocker in the tails makes it easy to wheelie. Overall they are super playful skis though, by far my favorite ski I've ever owned. I would highly recommend them to any intermediate to advanced park skier. The graphics are dope as hell too. Sure to get you noticed. Biggest downside to these skis is that the topsheets chip a lot easier than my other skis, but I have last years model, and I hear they fixed that somewhat this year. Although any skis with sidewall construction will have that problem, and its only cosmetic anyway.

The Final Word: super playful skis. SO much fun, but I must call them what they are, symmetrical park noodles. I wouldn't be dropping any cliffs or hitting any big lines with them for sure. Don't expect the rocker to make them a one ski quiver.

Killer knife, very sharp and easy to open. Got it for $20 at Walmart though... $79.95 here... sheesh

Jacket kept me dry through 2 days of solid rain in the Smokies. Water seems to bead up nicer on the Precip than it did on my old MH Epic jacket. This jacket could be improved if the hood was a little bit smaller (seems to keep falling off even w/ the cinchcord) and the breathability could also be improved.

Overall, the precip is a great 3 season, lightweight, rain jacket, but if you have the dough a jacket that uses Gore-tex Paclite might be the way to go.

Bag is very warm and comfortable. This bag seems to be well constructed (i.e. no loose feathers or ripping seams), lofts up quickly and well and compresses into a tiny package. On the other hand, if you're big and/or tall this may not be the bag for you; the bag is fairly narrow, which saves weight and enables it to compress into a smaller package, but may be too constricting for a bigger fella'. At approx 6' tall I comfortably fit in this bag, but I wouldn't recommend it for anyone taller. Also, with size 15 feet, the footbox is a little small, but I guess that is to be expected.

Overall, this is a great bag for the money, unless you are big and tall. Plus the bright orange color will ensure you never lose your sleeping bag!
