Alright, this ATC is very light weight but not the best choice for multi pitch or even more intense climbs. However, this ATC does work and is a great choice for someone that does not need to spend the extra money on the HP or will not be needing an ATC for twin rope belays. For gym use this ATC is awesome.

I have the blue/purple monkey man. i used it as a mid layer while riding at park city and the canyons. also use it many times while backpacking on the AT and on the MST in western NC. this is so light and warm it is always the first thing i put in my pack no matter what time of year i decide to hit the trail. O and just so you know you might just find random girls coming up to pet your monkey phur.

if you are looking for an eco friendly board go with the Arbor wasteland or any arbor for that matter. If you are looking for one of the lightest boards out there with the smoothest ride and new add-ons like harsh mellow then the zero is your board. Compare it to other light weight boards (burton vapor) and you will see that this is the best board for the buck. Hook it up with the new Auto bindings and you have a fully harsh mellowed out board. just make sure that you but the 09 auto bindings because there was a recall on last years.

(whew that was a good one) I have had this tent for about six months I have taken it on three extended backpacking trips two down in Western NC on the MST and another one on the MD AT. I really enjoy this tent I love the two doors and have never had a problem with water leaking in. My two complaints are this. It is very hot during the summer. My last trip we were using 20 degree bags and it was about 40 outside. we slept the whole night with the fly open just to keep from burning up. The second problem is the weight. I am used to carrying around 40lbs so its not a big problem for me but lighter would defiantly be better. I do like the tent and im glad that i looked at SAC when i did.

I used this pack on a week long sea kayaking trip. On the second day it got real choppy and the compartments became full of water lucky for me this great design paid off and my bag stayed dry. Thanks Sea to Summit!

Yes it is BPA free but so are most naleges. Basically it is the same price but gives you 250ml less!!! Maybe im weird or something but when im on long backpacking trips I like to hold as much water as possible. You can never count on that next blue line actually being there. I know that from experience.

straight stupid! these bindings can be compared to the Burton missions in flex and response but have allot more padding for the feet. they have a heal dampener and a toe strap that doubles as a cap strap and an old school over the toe. in the end very responsive, very comfortable, very sweet
