I love this spork. Its small, light, and does what you want it to do. Slao looks like it will last for years. I just hope I don't lose it like I lose everything else.

Awesome bowl, but won't stay folded.

Sea To Summit X-Bowl Collapsable Bowl

Sea To Summit X-Bowl Collapsable Bowl

Rating for this product: 4 July 8, 2009

I like this bowl because its light, small and made of durable rubber and plastic. The only thing I don't like about it, is that it won't stay collapsed. It immediately pops half way open, but it''s still small enough to pack.

If you don't have one of these, I would get one. I think most Camelbak's come with them now. If you remember to close the valves on these, you won't get any leaks. If your like me though, you won't remember.

These things are comfortable, but they never last more than 2 or 3 uses. They always pop, even if you take care of them. Don't waste your time. By a foam mattress.

Rating for this product: 4 July 8, 2009

This bag packs extremely small! Very light pack and you can take it anywhere with you. Its very thin, so it doesn't keep you very warm. Definitely wouldn't sleep in 40 degree weather with this one. Maybe 65+ degree temps. Good summer bag.

I got these pants thinking they were going to be your typical brown cord pant and they ended up being orange. The cord material was brown, but in the sun, you could see through them and see that they were orange. It looked really weird.

Columbia Steens Mountain Full-Zip Jacket - Men's

Rating for this product: 5 March 17, 2009

I love this zip up fleece! Good quality and warm enough to wear as a jacket. It also looks really good. The sizing on this fleece is a little large though. I wear a medium and I got this in a small because Columbia usually runs a little big. Even the small was almost to big for me. Keep that in mind!

Best shoe I've ever owned

Patagonia Footwear Huckleberry Approach Shoe - Men's

Patagonia Footwear Huckleberry Approach Shoe - Men's

Rating for this product: 5 March 10, 2009

I absolutely love this shoe. They seem like they would be stiff when you take them out of the box, but when you put them on it feels like you've been wearing them for years. Super comfortable!! I get tons of complements on them and people love the Juniper Green color. Only thing that I don't like about them is that the tongues are really long on these shoes.

Backcountry.com Inbounds Glove 5 Stars!!

Backcountry.com Stoic Inbounds Glove - Men's

Backcountry.com Stoic Inbounds Glove - Men's

Rating for this product: 5 February 20, 2009

This glove is awesome! Got it in the tan color which is leather color instead of yellowish ugly color in the picture. The color is sweet!! You can tell they are a bullet proof glove the second you see them in person. Super comfortable and warm. The leather soaks up some water , but my hands have never got wet in them.

One recommendation would be to size down one size. They don't run small, but they pack out a bit. My hand is 8 inches and I got the Mediums. I was on the edge of whether they were going to be too small or not. They packed out and they fit perfect. The cuffs are pretty skinny on these gloves, so they're kind of a pain to get on and off. Who gives a crap about that though. These gloves are amazing!!

Such a fun board!!

Lib Technologies TRS BTX Snowboard

Lib Technologies TRS BTX Snowboard

Rating for this product: 5 December 9, 2008

This board is almost like riding a skateboard. The BTX allows you to size down so I chose a 151, down from my usual 158 I ride. The smaller size makes it the ultimate Jib boar. Banana tech makes it super easy to ride powder and the MTX seriously works! My only complaint is that I have a size 12 shoe and I get toe drag. My have to size up to a bigger board soon and use this to mess around in.

Rating for this product: 5 December 9, 2008

I haven't got to use this bag yet because the snow hasn't came yet, but I have worn it around the house alot and I love it. I can't wait to get out there and use it. Enough pockets to carry everything you need in this bag. Some people think that the ava lung isn't needed, but when your snowboarding in places like Utah where avalanches can be an everday occurence, any extra devise that can help save my life makes me feel a little more confident when riding.

This beanie is really warm and has a nice fleece lining on the lower half in the inside. Only problem is that it's too small for me to wear. I guess I have a huge head because it's supposed to be one size fits all. I gave it to my roommate and he loves it.

Rating for this product: 4 November 18, 2008

The Dakine Scout Glove is a good warm all around glove. The size runs a little big, but not that big of a problem to me. Finger tips are a little loose at the top, making it hard to get in and out of zip pockets. For the money, this is a really good glove.
