I would just give MSR a call at (800) 531-9531 and I am sure they would be able to work something out with you.

It looks like their are some suede/leather panels on the side of the shoe. So I would not recommend it, they would get ruined.

Nixon Manual Watch - Men's

March 30, 2009

There are four little screws on the back of the face of the watch. Just undo those, take off the back of the face, take the old battery out and put the new one in. If this is something you don't want to do yourself you can always take it to a jeweler and they can do it for you as well.

Werner Sprite 2 Piece Paddle - Kids'

in the select options drop down menu you are allowed to choose the paddle by size. I would just size up on measure or two to allow some growing room.

It just means that the leg loop adjusters are basically hidden and out of the way when not in use. But more or less it is just a fancy term.

You could carry them very easily A-frame style with the side compression straps. However, looks like you could not carry them in a diagonal fashion at all.

Rome Machine Snowboard - Wide

March 30, 2009

Yeah you should be good to go. With it being a wide model that will be more suited for your all mountain riding style and float better in the powder. The only time this board might feel sluggish is in the park.

Forum Grudge Snowboard

March 30, 2009

This would be a great board for the park. Stiffness wise it falls right in the middle, so a mid flex. You could downsize to the 156w no prob. I would however recommend a wide board no matter what size you choose because of your foot size. If you just bought a normal width board you may have the problem of toe and heel drag.

Rossignol One Mag Snowboard

No, sorry man the biggest boot you could put on this board would be about a size 10 at the most. You will need a wide specific board. As far as the stance setback it is 1 inch.

Patagonia Margot Dress - Women's

March 30, 2009

Yes the sizing chart is accurate, it is taken directly from Patagonia. The band is actually part of the dress, sewn in, and is made of the same material so it should not make a difference. This dress is new for the this spring so the price will not be dropping anytime soon.
