Nice, comfortable for summer

The North Face Hiawatha Sandal - Women's

The North Face Hiawatha Sandal - Women's

Rating for this product: 4 September 25, 2009

These are very well made shoes. Nice & comfortable. Run a little wide. I normally wear a size 8 and the length is good. The strap is slightly loose around my foot so I have to make sure they don't fall off when walking down stairs. But I have a small volume foot so that might be part of the issue. Support in them is quite good for a flip flop.

Really long arms

Mountain Hardwear Sarafin Cardigan - Women's

Mountain Hardwear Sarafin Cardigan - Women's

Rating for this product: 3 September 12, 2009

I just received this sweater. I'm 5'8", 145 lbs and ordered an XL as I tend to prefer my sweaters with a slightly looser fit. This sweater fits nicely in the body and shoulders, but the arms are extremely long. I have really long arms and usually have an issue with sleeves being too short. But this sweater is completely the opposite. I will just have to wear it with the cuffs rolled up a couple of inches.

Nice Helmet

Giro Omen Helmet

Rating for this product: 4 September 12, 2009

The Giro Omen is a nice helmet. I've skied in it a couple of seasons and it's pretty nice. Light weight, good ventilation. Chin strap is padded so that is comfortable. The plastic inner-frame is adjustable so you can get a decent fit. I have a hard time fitting helmets with my tiny pinhead, so I got this in a small. My only nit is if I tighten the inner frame a bit too much I get a headache, but it's easily loosened. I found the Giro G10 helmet to be a bit more comfortable.

North Face Rocks!

The North Face Freedom Insulated Pant - Women's

The North Face Freedom Insulated Pant - Women's

Rating for this product: 5 September 4, 2009

I love North Face Ski pants. They are high-quality, strong seams, keep you dry even if you sit in the snow a few times. I wear these skiing and snowboarding, and they are very comfortable. Love the extra cargo pocket to throw in a lock and neck warmer. I'm 5'8", 145 lbs. The size Large/Regular fits great. This is my 3rd pair of North Face ski pants and I will definitely buy more. Love their jackets too.

Cool jacket, but runs small

Backcountry.com Rime Pullover Jacket - Women's

Backcountry.com Rime Pullover Jacket - Women's

Rating for this product: 4 September 2, 2009

Nice, well made jacket. Runs small, would size up. I'm 5'8", 145 lbs, normally wear a size 12/Large. I ordered this in Wisteria color, Large size. Should have ordered and XL. I can't wear it with anything other than a t-shirt without it being too tight. Would have returned for an XL but they were out of the color I wanted. Quality is good, though. I'm just bummed I can't get my color in the XL anymore. Would have rated 5 stars if the sizing were better.

Great to track calories and heart rate

Polar F11 Heart Rate Monitor

Polar F11 Heart Rate Monitor

Rating for this product: 5 May 20, 2009

I use this every time I exercise. I can not say how accurate the calorie counter is, but it is a great way to measure and track improvement in your workouts by comparing your counts from one day to the next. You can easily track which exercises burn more calories per hour, which days you've worked out harder than others, etc. The heart rate tracking helps ensure you are in the right zone for your work out. Wearing the chest strap may take a little getting used to for some, but it is really not a big deal. And the chest strap will transmit your heart rate to many pieces of gym equipment that are equipped with heart rate sensors if you don't want to wear the watch for some reason. It will work in the pool if you swim laps.

When you are done your workout, upload it to the computer. You'll need a microphone on your computer because it uses a "fax machine" like sound signal to send the data. There is no cable that connects the watch to the computer.

Highgear Altis TI Altimeter Watch

Highgear Altis TI Altimeter Watch

Rating for this product: 3 May 20, 2009

Watch is well built. Large & very heavy on the wrist. You will know you are wearing it. It works well and as advertised. I only rated it 3 stars for 2 reasons:

1. It's not the most intuitive and user friendly watch. There are many features and functions and it takes a bit of time to learn how to work it. You pretty much have to read the manual. I had an Avocet altimeter watch previously that was MUCH easier to use. For the price I would expect a much simpler interface.
2. My jacket or glove continually bump the buttons and changed the watch settings while I am skiing. I've missed numerous runs because of this and didn't realize the watch had turned off the counter.

This watch has the advantage that you can replace the battery yourself. The Avocet required you to resend to the factory every time the battery died, which is why I bought this one to replace it.
