Smith I/OS Interchangeable Optic Goggle

4 days ago

I wear a size Large helmet (the Smith Holt) and i wear the I/OS with it. I tried on the I/O and it didn't fit my face at all. The bridge of my nose was apparently way too small for it, there was a huge gap there. Which surprised me because even when goggles dont fit well gapping at the bridge of my nose was never the issue. I can wear Oakley Stockholms, A-Frames, or Smith Phenoms no problem. So i guess i have a medium/small face size for goggles. But yeah, like the person who commented previously mentioned, knowing what goggles you've worn in the past would help determine which one would work better for you.

Burton Sapphire Snowboard Boot - Women's

Rating for this product: 5 November 26, 2009

My first day out in these was a little rough. I had to find the sweet spot of how tight i could tie them without causing my feet to fall asleep. 3 days in and i think i've broken them in almost perfectly. I rode the Burton Lodi's last year which is a pretty soft boot. I wanted something a little stiffer and these are exactly what i was looking for. Not too stiff, not too soft.

Rating for this product: 5 November 26, 2009

I was torn between getting these, Oakley Stockholms or Oakley A-Frames. I ended up getting these and i am SO happy i did. These fit my face perfectly, its amazing. They don't sag or ride down on my nose and i'm never ever adjusting them on my face. Haven't had any fog issues either. Love them!

I bought the Smith Holt helmet to go with these and they work great.

Oakley Mane Jacket - Women's

Rating for this product: 4 November 26, 2009

I loved this jacket. It's definitely warm. My only issue is that it only looks good when it's completely zipped up. When it's unzipped it looks you're wearing a jacket thats like 5 sizes too big. For me it didn't seem like it would be super practical off the mountain. I ended up returning it. I would say that it runs large, and i'd definitely size down.

Oakley Lighter Fare Jacket - Women's

Rating for this product: 5 November 26, 2009

This jacket is great. Be aware that it is not insulated at all. I wasn't sure how i felt about that but i bought a couple different fleeces to wear under it depending on the temps and i think i'll be fine. It'll be nice being able to layer and wear it on the coldest days but then still be able to wear it in the spring. It's nice and roomy and the sleeves are long. I'm definitely happy with this one.

These pants are great. They kept me totally dry all day, even when i was falling on my butt. I've never worn them with a base layer and i've never needed to. They're pretty toasty and very windproof. Plus, the leather on those straps on the right leg isn't really the cheap leather in the photo, it looks a lot better in person.

Burton Bullet Snowboard - Wide

October 16, 2008

Yeah. It's basically an all mountain board, but its wider so that you can ride powder. If that's your plan, go for it. Otherwise I'd recommend a true all-mountain board. Also, this one might be a bit long for you so check the sizing chart. However, if you want to do some serious alpine work, the longer board will let yuou go faster.however i'd suggest not getting a Wide board. That would be for guys with larger feet that have a problem with them hanging over the edges of the board. your womens size 9.5 would not be an issue with a regular width board, mens or womens.

well, if she's intermediate to beginner i probably wouldn't start her off with a Feelgood, its a great board but its for the more advanced rider. If you were looking specifically at Burton boards, i'd suggest the Feather or the Lux boards to start out. Even though shes small, i'd say get the adult board. the Smalls is made for smaller kids. But just size down to somewhere between a 143-146.
