Stoic Merino Balaclava

Stoic Merino Balaclava

Rating for this product: 5 November 23, 2011

I was looking for something warm and thin to wear under my helmet. This thing is the best answer to my needs. It rules. Fit smoothly under my helmet, due to the ergonomic stitch patterns. In addition it was stretchy, like other Stoic Merino wool items I've had. My head is pretty big (7 3/4 hat size) and this didn't make me claustrophobic at all.

If you are looking for a natural fiber balaclava, this is it. Personally I think Merino Wool is far superior to poly blends for a number of reasons and Stoic does it right!

Love it

Beyond Coastal Natural Sunscreen SPF 30

Beyond Coastal Natural Sunscreen SPF 30

Rating for this product: 5 April 5, 2011

I love this sunblock. It is hard to find an effective all natural sunblock like this one. I have tried many other brands, and this is the stuff for me. You do need to reapply many times to keep it effective, and it does make your face stubble look funny, but who cares right? I'd rather have a little ghost face going on than be putting toxic chemicals on my face. Yay for Beyond Coastal!

I have used this snowboarding for the most part. Haven't tested it swimming, but I bet with the right amount of reapplication, it will rock.

Oh yeah, it smells good too. Makes my nose tingle.

Cool shirt, wish it was longer

Tramdock.com Surgery T-Shirt - Short-Sleeve - Men's

Tramdock.com Surgery T-Shirt - Short-Sleeve - Men's

Rating for this product: 3 February 25, 2010

The color and graphic on this are sick. I thought it was going to be long like my other backcountry shirts, and it ended up being normal fit. Kind of a bummer, but oh well.

Best belt out there, for snow use

Tramdock.com Dock Belt

Tramdock.com Dock Belt

Rating for this product: 5 February 25, 2010

I love this belt. Weather resistant for snow pants, and nice and tough. I am a 32-33 waist and the medium fit, with plenty of extra room. I originally bought this just for my snow pants, but ended up buying a 2nd one for normal use too. These are tough and they don't stretch like cheap leather belts.

Frogskins Update... Cool in its own right

Oakley Jupiter Sunglasses

Oakley Jupiter Sunglasses

Rating for this product: 5 March 4, 2009

I have been collecting Frogs since they were re released last year. That being said I had to check these out. This is basically frogskins meet performance with a dab of modern style. The frame looks similar to frogs from the front, but I noticed the lens are slightly less tall and wider. Also, the lens have a slight sphericalness to them. The other main difference here is the arms. They obviously much taller than frogs. I still found them comfortable but these felt a lot more like current oakleys on my face than that 80s cheap feel the frogs have. Overall, they look kind of like Frogs, feel like modern oakley and in many ways shape their own spot in the Oakley line. In retrospective, I don't look at them as replacements for Frogs, but as a cool new frame to have in addition to frogs.

Powder sucks rips

Stepchild Snowboards Powder Sucks Snowboard

Stepchild Snowboards Powder Sucks Snowboard

Rating for this product: 5 October 17, 2008

I rode this board at an industry demo in feb. The powder sucks is a super fun board for a great price. It is a fun twin shape which I would rate amazing. A good way to think of this board is a soft jib board with a little something extra. I would compare this against boards like the Rome Artifact.
