The hood was made for a head the size of a pin. I could not get it around my neck to snap. Hoods should be functional as well as cute, and this coat failed in that regard. Had to return the coat. I mean, why have a hood if you can't use it?

Finally Dynastar has made a Pro Rider for us height/weight challenged! I am 5'6 and 130 pounds, not a candidate for the first lengths that the Pro Rider was originally made. But with the 176cm length I can experience what all my male buddies have been raving about for years. These skis are fantastic! They are dreamy in powder, power thru crud, and if I have to ski groomers when I am skiing the Pro's,they RIP.The best discovery of these awesome skis is that they turn easier than one would expect from such a burly ski. I do prefer a race/carving ski when it is truly bullet-proof, but I didn't buy the Legend Pro's to ski hard pack. They will be part of my quiver for years to come.

I bought this jacket in Teton Village during a balmy Minus 20 Degree February day that the Tetons can be famous for. I was instantly transformed into a warm, happy camper, not only on the slopes, but around town. This is a seriously warm coat, made for seriously cold days when staying inside means missing out on serious fun.

Oh my, oh my, oh my, is this a great coat! I got this sweet layer during a -20F early February ski trip in Jackson Hole. I have proceeded to wear it every ski day until the 10th of March. It keeps me warm, is quite waterproof (multiple testings in Wasatch storms), and I LOVE the fit. I got the Artist Gray. Ladies, it isn't REALLY gray, more like a Smokey Grape. I will enjoy this jacket for many years.

Replacing these lens could make a grown man (or woman) cry with frustration. Instead of crying, be patient! You shall be rewarded with amazing clarity and vision. It helps to work on replacing the lens in front of a warm fire at home instead of a cold parking lot during an epic dump.
