Rossignol Phantom SC97 Ski
5 days ago
Are these on the "snappier" side of things or kinda damp ala the older bandits. Both the 87 and 97 look like ideal all purpose weapons but i dont want them to feel like a mythic rider.

Stoic Welder Hi Softshell Jacket - Men's
November 16, 2009
Thanks for the response, but i still think this would be the bomb with sleeve gauntlets and a helmet compatible hood. Wonder why some stoic jackets got gauntlets and others did not. Was it a conscious design decision or random. Hope the brand does well in any event

Stoic Welder Hi Softshell Jacket - Men's

This looks great however, no sleeve gauntlets as on the insulated stoic jacket. Will anyone ever make a softshell, with slight insulation with sleeve gauntlets and fleece collar?

Cloudveil Rayzar Gore Windstopper Softshell Jacket - Men's

Other the the Gore windstopper matieral, anyone know how this truly differs from the first turns jacket. Both seem to be soft shells, with some insulation. Was also curious if the hood helmet compatible?

Outdoor Research Mithril Softshell Jacket - Men's
September 16, 2009
Can it be confirmed that the hood is NOT helmet compatible? Also anyone know if there is a powder skirt and if its cut on the short or longer side?
Looks like a contender with the Mt. Harwear Hooded syncro which does have a skirt and helmet ok hood

Liberty Hazmat Alpine Ski
April 12, 2009
Can anyone comment on a med-lighter weight Alpine binding? Im thinking look px15 but afraid its higher weight may offset the playfulness of the hazmats.
Also are folks skiing this "flat" ie minimal binding lift. I dont ski switch or park. thanks

Backcountry.com Stoic Inbounds Glove - Men's
March 31, 2009
Love these gloves and have rocked them in all weather conditions this winter. The tight cuff is great if your shell or jacket wont work with a gauntlet. Anyway, the leather on these has been cured and or tanned with a strong chemical which smells the minute you open the bag. Im on a whole winter and the smell has not dissipated. Anyone know if or when it goes away...
