Maple Blondie. A Hannah Teter treat.

Yeah, I try to get healthy for the season. A couple of lunges, vanilla oatmeal and stretching are a part of my “extensive” and “intense” preseason training. So I’m on track, lunging away like a champ, when Ben & Jerry interrupt.
Introducing Maple Blondie – the new, signature flavor of Hannah Teter. Now, I figure… Hannah [...]

Mt. Bachelor Opening Day Video

This video is out of control. Sure, it doesn’t hurt to have a mountain covered in powder to shoot, but everything about it is sick – skiing and snowboarding, RIDICULOUS back country riding, natural jibs, man-made jibs, powder slashes, cliff drops, some commentary, decent background track… Plus, it’s the perfect length. You’ll watch from beginning [...]

Burton Layers: Overall Impressions

Christmas came early this year, kids. In an earlier post, I touched upon what I ordered from Burton. Well, the clothes are here… annnnd they’re fabulous. Burton baselayers are made with DRYRIDE Ultrawick fabric so they’ll dry faster, wick away moisture and avoid smelling like onions dipped in awful.
Just so you know, sizing runs BIG. [...]

Jackets, pants, layers… oh my.

Finally! The time has come. I’ve placed an order for a new jacket, pants and über cute base layers. I don’t think I’ve ever waited this long to buy something new. Usually, I go ape shit on the end-of-season sales.
This time, I straight-up ransacked the Burton line. I gotta say, I’m truly looking forward to [...]

Holden 2010 Outerwear

When you think mp3 player, you think iPod. Same goes for tight riding pants. If you want waterproof boot cut pants, you shop Holden.
All the women’s pants look sweet, but I’m a sucker for hemp material making Holden’s Arcadia Cargo Pant my favorite out of the group. The pants are available in a few colors [...]

Roxy Athletix

It’s no secret – Roxy makes attractive, technical gear. Enter Roxy Athletix, a new line chock full of pants, shirts and sports bras. No more ditching a workout on account of ugly running shorts.

Not-So-20 Questions » About Face Media

When a video makes you stop, think, laugh & wonder what the hell you just saw, it’s probably a good thing. The K2 Charlie – Adventure From Tip to Tail has a good mix of crazy, entertaining and snowy footage – enough to make it memorable.

About Face Media is the nifty company behind such [...]

Burton 2010 » Binding Haul

Maybe it was the bright blue that initially caught my eye. Maybe it was the “what-the-hell-kind-of-name-is-that” name. Whatever the case, Burton’s Molotov EST binding looks hawt.

Weight, flex, and price are things to consider… but if the binding isn’t comfortable, you’re eff’d. I like the new Park-Specific ASYM Superstrap. The shape’s been changed and the padding [...]
