They are going to be good for any temperatures except the extreme cold. I took these touring in -20 mph windchills and still they held up well. They are very comfortable and fit perfect on my hand.

I have had these pants for 3 seasons now. The original light blue ones and now these. They are definitely thin, but very breathable and waterproof. They have held up to quite a few tree branch strikes and still work great. Couldn't ask for better.

Rating for this product: 5 November 27, 2010

Going on my second season of heavy usage with this pack. Only one tiny rip that I think is from my catching a tree at mach 10. Really durable and awesome all around pack. It's a good size, but everything is compacted really well and can fit anything you need for a one or two day trip.

Rating for this product: 5 November 27, 2010

These things slay. In the deep stuff they are effortless to keep afloat and they will STOMP anything. Not to mention the bases look prettttty sick when you're hucking over your friends. If you want to do a bit of charging and jib everything mother nature has to offer on the mountain this is the ski!

Rating for this product: 5 February 25, 2010

Awesome poles. I have bashed these poles to no end and they still are going strong. Great adjustment and not too too heavy for a durable all around pole. Have no fear stomping cliffs and bashing them against trees at high speed. They simply won't break on you.

Rating for this product: 3 February 25, 2010

Took this out touring and in bounds at the bird. Have to say I wasn't impressed. Get the night trains these are a bit sloppy and could be a little wider. Would be an awesome BC jump ski if you mount them closer to center than where I skied thehm. All in all, they were okay, but I am not raving about them to friends.

Rating for this product: 5 February 25, 2010

Have had about 40 days in the backcountry on this pack and it has faired me well and beyond for my needs. Fits a little small but awesome when skiing and very comfortable. Back pads are real nice when taking an impact directly backflopping.

All in all if you are a jibber or a charger, you will love this pack and who can't love the avalung feature.

Love this jacket. I am not a very big guy and had to size up to an XXL. It does have a smaller fit to it and as my east coast park roots need me to have something a bit bigger. Used it the past 3 days at the bird and it was sick.

Line Afterbang Ski

September 26, 2009

These skis definitely handle jumps pretty well for a softer ski. Not as great as some of the stiffer skis out there but they should be fine for anything 40' and under. If you mostly shred park on the east or midwest these skis will be a good choice...you will want to go bigger than the 155cm that's on here though.

Rating for this product: 5 September 26, 2009

Rode these all last year all over Utah and couldn't help but love them. I am a really light kid at about 150 pounds and ride the 185's. It's a lot of ski but these things shred groomers just as well as they do pow. There's enough rocker to keep your tips and tails up and they do great on any sort of Backcountry booter. Overall a great ski.

So these skis are very similar to the traditional k2 ski. Heavy, stiff, chipped topsheet. If you like that type of ski go for it. I have fun on them and I don't weigh that much.

This is a surprisingly good glove. One of the best gloves for the money I have ever used. I have used it in the coldest/deepest pow days here in UT and my hands feel like they just came out of a warm car.
