Ride LXH Snowboard Binding - Women's
February 21, 2009
OK so there is one really super great part about these bindings. They are easy to adjust! Both sides adjust on the top strap without using a screwdriver! That is super duper because I have a small foot and I hate adjusting my binding with a freeking pocket tool.

Ride Canvas Snowboard - Women's

This board rips on the mountain but clearly can't handle me. The top sheet cracked right in the center of the board. as you can see in the photo (circled) this baby spit a good 4 inches. bummer because as you see from my last review this was one of the best all mountain boards I have ever been on.

Great Fit
The North Face Nuptse Down Vest - Women's
February 20, 2009
I tried on similar vests from other brands but overall I kept running into the same problem - The shoulders were not hitting in the right spot or the waist was too short. (I understand that there are no shoulders because its a vest)
As you can see in the photo there is no weird sags under the arm and it does hit in the perfect spot on the shoulder.
FYI : I am 5'4" and 115 and this is the xs. Please understand that this vest is down, no down jacket will show off your figure.

Oakley Dart Sunglasses - Women's - Polarized
January 31, 2009
I can't tell people enough how much I love these sunglasses. They are metal and fit like a glove. I also have a small frame face so finding glasses that fit with oakley are a bit difficult. I do appreciate the polarization and the attention to detail with these lenses and craftmanship. I heart oakley.

Oakley Wisdom Goggle DO NOT USE
January 31, 2009
this goggle is great for guys with a larger frame, this goggle fits very nice with all styles of helmets. If you do plan on purchasing a google and helmet combo please remember to bring your goggles with you when you buy the helmet.
Also, just as an FYI never wipe the inside of the lens, this usually scratches the inside and can leave for a bad bad day on the mountain.

Oakley A Frame Goggle
January 31, 2009
I have had 4 of these googles. That is truly how much I love this style and feel of this goggle. The reason why I have gone through so many was because of color and I kept on scratching the lenses. NOTE: Never ever wipe the inside of the googles, even with the bag provided. I have noticed that this scratches the inside of the lens. you will have a bad day if you do this.
Pictured here are the white frame with the blue iridium lenses. I feel as though this is the best priced all around mountain lens. Not too dark and not bad on an overcast day. I hate changing lenses.
Also if you have a small frame face like me consider looking into oakley asian fit or womens specific goggles like the stockholm.

Bern Muse helmet
Bern Muse Hard Hat Audio Helmet - Women's
January 31, 2009
I have had this helmet for a season now and although it does scuff it is easy to clean with one of those magic erasers. The overall fit of the helmet is very true to size, so if you ladies have a small head like me you will be happy. My muse in particular does not have the built in audio system, but the flaps are removable.

Imagine these boots like huge pillows on your feet. If you look at the sizing they range from a 39 to a 41! (thats mondo sizing, like what size your ski boot is) Technica made these boots to fit a range of feet. I would consider these a variable size.
I have super small and wide feet, and mine are happy in these.

bearpaw as a company strives on sustainability. I would suggest wearing these to look cute going to work or to the bar afterwards but I would not suggest shoveling the driveway in these. If your looking for a quality boot with a bit of style, check out the north face adrianne boot, you might pay more but your feet will be way happier that you spent the money on them.

BEARPAW Norda Boot - Women's

the straps and boot is suede. the 200g referes to the insulation. If your sitting out in the cold for a while this boot is not for you. this boot will not keep you dry in the winter, just warm when you don't have to step in a slush puddle. These will look cute walking to class or to work, but don't expect to keep your toes try for long. If your looking for killer waterproof boots try the sorel caribou boot.

pshew! I think this would make more sense than a long explanation of why a race boot can't compare to a all mountain performance boot. Both are awesome and both are now replaced by newer boots with different names. Try this one, you will be happy and it is comparable to your old world cup 120's

I spot cleaned this jacket with a bit of soap and water. From experience use a dry detergent to wash any waterproofing materials, then hang dry. Avoid fabric softners and liquid detergents because it breaks down the fabric. I use nikwax if I have killed my garments. http://www.nikwax.com/en-gb/products/productdetail.php?produ
