I like this saw

Backcountry Access Snow Saw

Backcountry Access Snow Saw

Rating for this product: 4 February 16, 2012

My saw came with a sheath, so I am happy with it. It rocks at cutting wood, in the picture I just defeated an asian lumberjack at a wood cutting contest, so of course this saw rocks! and for digging pits and testing snow it works well. Only downside is that is just barely short enough to fit in all of my packs, making for a tough fit sometimes.

Atomic Blog Ski

Rating for this product: 4 February 16, 2012

Good for cruising the mountain, but every once in a while when you open it up, they get a little wobbly in the tails. Great choice for a west coast all mountain ski or one ski quiver!

Dynafit TLT Radical FT Binding

Dynafit TLT Radical FT Binding

Rating for this product: 5 February 16, 2012

First experience with a tech binding, and all I have to say is I can rip as hard on these on my 4FRNT renegades as I do with an alpine binding. Using the Dalbello Virus tour, I have had no prereleases, or any ejections at all for that matter. Perfect for a touring setup, and even some inbounds days as well! Super satisfied in this purchase.

Tried this binding out as a sidecountry option, but honestly I would rather just be on my dynafits all the time! perfect for those that only have one set of skis that they are trying to make do it all, but if you are going to be touring more than resort skiing, go with a tech binding for sure.

If im touring, skiing powder, or something else pretty mellow when im not wearing a helmet, this is the only beanie to have. How many people have come up to me and said where did I get this beanie? Even though its pretty mellow looking, it is the best ear warming device ever made. EVER.

Seal that up with super glue or epoxy, if water gets into it it can really screw up the ski. take it into a shop and see what they say.
