  • Stomping Grounds:

    I frolic everywhere and anywhere in the beautiful Wasatch mountains: Snowbird, Brighton, Alta - or hiking in the backcountry are my favorites.
  • Bio:

    When my alarm goes off at 4am and I am comfy in my bed - you know what gets me out of bed, besides the DEEEEP snow I am about to go play in? It's the mystery of the day. The mystery of the mountains. I love it. It's like a mental chess game against the mountains. You exercise your patience and perception in the elements, do it correctly, and the mountains become your good friend. Nothing like hiking in the dark up a mountain and sitting pretty on top of a line when the sunrises. STOKED

This beanie was personally designed by pro skier Dash Longe. The robot sew-on label design was created by Dash's twin brother Hunter Longe. The cuff on the beanie is reversible with a stripe. The artwork is on both sides of the tag, so you can rock the beanie with or without cuff. 2 styles, one to shred, one to kick it with. The beanie is ribbed and has a tight, relaxed, grippy fit for riding. This beanie is silly fried mashed potatoes fresh, gumby gold style.

I've become a big fan of listening to music on the recruits when I ski. You can wear them over your goggles VS wearing your goggles over the headphones. You can ski aggressively and not worry about them falling off. You can pull the headphones easily to the side to hear people or when you are skiing, if you prefer to hear the snow instead of the music, like me.

Spyder Godfather Insulated Jacket - Men's

Yo Webster. What kind of base layers you talking about? If you got bulky layers, then yes you should - but if you have pretty low profile layering, then don't buy up on size. This jacket has a nice long/trim, but baggy fit. The jacket is rad, just don't buy too big, cause the jacket is a perfect longer length to start.

These skis are straight up chargers! Atomic Atlas are playful when you need them to be, they stomp the sh*t out of a landing, and the tails are there to support you when you need it. They are wide under the foot with traditional camber all the way to the tail, but shaped with rocker up to the tip. If you have the need to charge, then look no further, these skis will amplify your skill set.

Atomic Bent Chetler Ski

October 28, 2009

Hey, read the review above for JJ reference:

written by eri3374524:

...is how my very knowledgeable and trusty ski tech buddy describes the Bent Chetlers.

He has skied pretty much every comparable ski offered by Volkl, Armada, K2, Rossignol, Line, other Atomic models, etc (he specifically made comparisons to the JJ, Hellbent, and Chopstick). According to him, the BC's are hands down- by far, the best ski out of the bunch. To avoid redundancy, his comments echo all the strong positives that have already been posted.

After a long conversation and some research, I took the plunge on faith alone. I opted to set up my BC's with Jesters, mounted 2.5 back from factory recommendation. I'll post my experience once I have had the chance to ski them.

I absolutely love these boots. They have a sturdy, playful, flex that is very good for shredding off-piste, in the powder, and catching air. And when I get them on the groomers they perform very highly. The liners are great, minimal seams to press on your uncomfortable spots/bone spurs/growths/whatever you want to call them (I call em dinosaur hooks, everybody got one), and I love the booster strap, no velcro that gets worn out. Plus they're lightweight. A+ all around. Well done Atomic.!

MSR WhisperLite International Multi-Fuel Stove

Rating for this product: 4 May 5, 2009

This little stove is not afraid to light up quick and cook/boil/get after it fast. I've had to re-light a few times in not so severe wind - but I'll overlook it. Stoked on this stove.

I like this bag. Could be a little more room in the knee area for wide stance sleepers. But comfort and warmth is exceptional. Perfect for Southern Utah in the Fall/Spring.

Rating for this product: 5 May 5, 2009

This T has a very comfortable fit. Neck isn't too tight around the neck - soft. Shirt stands taller, and the sleeves aren't too long that they go over your elbows - perfect fit. This t-shirt is bomb.

Let me just say I have had issues with skins in the past. FINALLY these BD skins are what I have been looking for. I've used them all season in the Wasatch and BC. Warm weather, really cold weather. They stay on, they stay sticky, they stay grippy.

Rating for this product: 5 April 2, 2009

This coat is the perfect skiing coat. You can wear a thin first layer under this coat on cold days, and a thicker first layer under it on cold days. The jacket has alot of great features, clean look/design, and fits a little longer - which is great for keeping out the snow and wind from coming up your back. And the chin cuff is perfect. Great coat.

Rating for this product: 5 March 25, 2009

What's up with all these people saying the t-shirt is too tall? It's just right. And the best part is the arm sleeves are just the right length, they don't go past your elbows, most shirts that fit appropriately (longer), the sleeves go 3/4 down your arm to make you look like a thug with baggy-ass style. This shirt is slim, a little longer than most t's, and sleeves are adjusted accordingly. I LOVE the fit, look, style of this shirt. And it's soft.

I don't DJ or have a need for 'PRO' quality headphones, however, once you listen to the quality of these headphones - whether chilling at home, flying, or walking to class - you'll be very happy with your purchase. Music/songs you've heard a million times sound amazing, like you are listening to them for the first time again. AMAZINGheadphones. Enjoy.

Atomic Thug Freestyle Ski

Atomic Thug Freestyle Ski

Rating for this product: 5 December 16, 2008

Atomic Thugs. Atomic has had a stranglehold on the racing scene for some time - and still does. Over the last couple years they have broadened their horizons with a big-mountain ski; the THUG. I have skied Alta every day for the last 2 weeks on this ski. I really like the ski. It charges through the crud - kind of bulldozes. And skis pow incredibly well. I am a big fan of this ski. Very mobile skis considering the dimensions. Nimble. Look out for the new bad-ass skis coming out from Atomic for next season!!!

ProBar Koka Moka - Box of 12

Rating for this product: 5 November 13, 2008

I have been eating PRO BAR like it's going out of style for the last year, as a professional skier, I am out hiking at 4am and my day doesn't end until sunset sometimes. So, I am VERY selective in my nutritional needs when out there amongst it. I LOVE the ART's Original Blend flavored PRO BAR, eat it almost every day. I decided to step out of my comfort zone and try the Koka Moka. So good. Not in a 'weird' way. It just tastes good. I've eaten a few now, where I'll say to myself that I have to eat it over an hour period. I make it about 10 minutes every time.

I spend over 100+ days a year skiing/hiking. Every morning I eat I PRO BAR and a banana, providing me with the energy to hike/play/ski all day. SUPER FOOD slam is one of my favorite flavors. You can tell you are actually eating REAL ingredients. Every few bites you get a big chocolate chip (organic of course like the rest of the bar). I highly suggest trying or just simply switching over to PRO BAR if you are a fan of Clif bar.

Spyder Freeryde Echo Down Jacket - Men's

Rating for this product: 5 October 7, 2008

This Coat is great. It's a little longer/taller fit than the traditional Spyder fit. No wind comes up your back. When you cartwheel/starfish no snow is creeping up your back and getting lodged in the tops of your ski pants. It's super warm on really cold days with just a good first layer on underneath. And it looks cool.
