The North Face Denali Fleece Jacket - Men's

September 5, 2008

A great companion shell for The North Face Denali Fleece Jacket is the Venture Jacket also from The North Face. If you use the Venture as a shell you will be waterproof, and have a hood, but you will also have the Denali to insulate your body and keep you warm.

I bet you are looking for a jacket that you can zip the denali into which is the North Face Mountain Light Jacket.

As a team, the The North Face Denali and Venture are unstoppable.

Schi Devil Skis

K2 Schi Devil Telemark Ski - Women's

Rating for this product: 4 March 13, 2007

Very hapy with these skis. Easy to install bindings with the pre-drilled holes (similar to a snowboard!). Skis float nicely in the powder, stable at higher speeds. Fun!

Really high-quality, and very waterproof

Burton AK Gore 3L Vent Pant - Men's

Rating for this product: 5 February 7, 2007

A quick note on sizing - go a size down if you're on the fence. These fit a little big.

Love the length

Ex Officio Runamuck Clam Digger Shorts - Women's

Rating for this product: 5 February 7, 2007

These shorts are very flattering, just long enough to cover any figure flaws. They work great on a hike, and still look nice for walking around town. The sizing was right on for me.

Stretchy Comfort

Patagonia Morning Glory Hoody Jacket - Women's

Rating for this product: 5 February 7, 2007

The Morning Glory Hoody Jacket stretches with you as you move, and the material has a slightly slick surface (that I love because my dog's fur doesn't stick to it.) The purple color is AWESOME, it's a very dark purple that is pretty accurately reflected in the product photo. It has fairly accurate sizing, maybe slightly slim-cut if anything. If you need more room than average in the chest area, go a size up.

I Love This Snowboard

Arbor Push Snowboard - Women's

Rating for this product: 5 December 11, 2006

The Arbor Push is one of my all-time favorite snowboards. It's light and snappy while also being stable and predictable. It's fun to ride anywhere on the mountain, from tight chutes to the terrain park. I live in Utah where we can go from hard-pack to 3' of fresh in a day, and the Arbor Push is my one board that I can ride in any condition and have a blast. The bamboo topsheet is also beautiful.

Super Supportive

Salomon F24 Snowboard Boot - Men's

Rating for this product: 5 December 11, 2006

These boots are nice and stiff and offer great support. I've always loved Salomon boots for their comfort right out of the box, and the F24 boots are no exception. No pressure points, no sore feet, just great stability and control and easy to lace up.

Awesome Fit

DC Judge Snowboard Boot - Women's

Rating for this product: 5 December 11, 2006

I have found the perfect snowboard boot. I didn't think it existed, but the DC Judge boots have proved me wrong. These boots have a lot of bells and whistles with a single pull inner lace up, BOA outer lacing system and an air pump bladder. But somehow this boot is designed so perfectly that it is lightweight, not bulky so it fits well in bindings (I use size small bindings with a size 7), and has a great medium-stiff flex. I rarely have boots that work well for me right out of the box - I'm usually cutting away at foot beds to get everything to fit just right. But these fit well and the air pump fills in right around the ankle bone to keep your foot completely locked in place.

Not Bulky and Super Warm

The North Face Flash Down Jacket - Women's

Rating for this product: 5 December 11, 2006

The North Face Flash jacket is as warm as puffy down jackets, without all the bulk. It has a trim fit and is really lightweight so it works well as an insulation layer as well as by itself. The fabric is shimmery, giving it a unique look that's a little fancier than your average down jacket.

Cute Slip-Ons

Roxy Pepperdine Sherpa Slip-On Shoe

Rating for this product: 5 December 11, 2006

The fuzzy trim gives these shoes a little extra character on the classic Vans slip-on style. They're cute and comfortable and the sizing was accurate for me.

They'll Get Noticed

DC Chelsea Skate Shoe - Women's

Rating for this product: 5 December 11, 2006

These shoes have a "slim fit" compared to most skate shoes that have padding along the sides and in the tongue. The herringbone pattern is pretty loud making these shoes very unique and noticeable.

High Quality Board at a Decent Price

Arbor Stance Snowboard

Rating for this product: 5 December 11, 2006

The Arbor Stance has a really fun, snappy ride. It's most at home in the terrain park, but is fun anywhere on the mountain. The only time I've had problems with it is on big powder days - the nose is a little flat for flotation in deep snow.

Gorgeous Embroidery

Element Trinidad Full-Zip Sweatshirt - Women's

Usually sweatshirts have screen printed graphics, but on this sweatshirt the pattern is embroidered - it looks sweet, and gets lots of compliments.

The Best Snowboard Binding

Comfy & Easy to Adjust

Nidecker Pro 800L Snowboard Binding - Women's

Rating for this product: 5 November 30, 2006

I'm really impressed with these bindings - they're comfortable and really easy to adjust. On the first day, I had a pressure point that was bugging me so I pulled over was able to adjust the ankle strap on the fly (didn't require a tool) so it was more centered across my foot. They have a solid feel without being too stiff.

Smaller sizes not pictured

CamelBak Omega HydroTanium Hydration Reservoir

Rating for this product: 5 August 30, 2006

These reservoirs are so much nicer than they used to be -- definitely worth an upgrade if you're still using the old kind with the tiny opening. You can choose from several sizes, just know that the one in the picture represents the larger sizes. The small ones are square.

Nice fit, nice colors

The North Face VaporWick Striped Polo - Women's

Rating for this product: 5 August 30, 2006

This is a really soft shirt, super comfortable. It didn't shrink at all in the wash, so if you're between sizes order the smaller size.
