This is easily my favorite piece of gear I own...because if I'm riding it then the snow is good. I find the Supermodel to be ideal for any depth of snow...it rips on the groomers, but really shines in the powder....4", 12" 24"....doesn't matter. I've shralped this thing in chest deeep snow before. Delicious. For me, the 10mm of taper is perfect... I still feel comfortable getting in the air and landing on it, but it turns on a dime when I'm romping a top-secret tree stash. I personally love the stiffness...if you have too stiff of a board in the powder it makes it harder for the nose to stay on top of the snow. My buddies are always getting pissed at me because i totally drop them once we hit the flats at the bottom of a run...the base on this thing is really, really fast.

I rode Ions for many years, but tried these on once and knew I had to shred in them. I got mine last April and put in 20+days on them....man are they nice. Definitely softer than an Ion or Driver X, but still supportive enough if you lace them up nice and snug, and for me, it's a perfect mix of support and mobility. There is definitely enough flex in these to press and butter, but I've always felt confident in them to support my ankles on landings. They are definitely premium in every way, easily the most comfortable boot I have ever owned in over a decade of riding. The liners make sweet, sweet love to my feet in a way I never thought could be possible with something besides fuzzy slippers.

if I have no idea what the conditions are going to be like at the hill, I ride this board. It can do everything, and do it well. I prefer to ride it at high speed in pursuit of fresh snow, but it also kills on the groomers and gets in the air well if you feel like hitting some jumps. I wouldn't slide a ton of rails or boxes on it - the stainless steel edges are sharp as hell and it's pretty stiff...more ideal for holding turns in any kind of snow at any speed. The base is retarded fast on this thing, and it's also crazy light. ICS is the bomb.... limitations of pre-set stance positions are a thing of the past. Only negative thing is the topsheet scratches kind of easily, but I could give a crap about that, honestly. It rides awesome anywhere on the entire mountain, from jumps to trees to groomers to bowls to the pipe, and that's all I care about.

I kitted these out with my Analog Strategy jacket for this year and I couldn't be happier. They fit nice and big, just the way I like it, They keep me warm and dry, and look sick, what else do you need?

Not sure the guy below knew that you can easily expand the memory on this thing with a standard memory card... Anyway, this little guy is perfect for shooting hilarious videos of buddies lawn-darting while trying to stick tricks off of cornices, or for proving to your skeptical friends that you really did straightline that chute at Jackson Hole that everybody else was pansying out on. Great wide angle lens so it's easy to keep the action in-frame. You're not gonna produce a Hollywood-caliber video with this, but it's pretty awesome to be able to document your runs without lugging around a huge bulky camera (or having to stress about damaging your expensive 3-chip). Plus, it's under $200 bones, awesome.

They're pretty basic warmer-weather park/pipe gloves, but with 6 fingers on each hand. I love conspicuously checking my watch or twiddling my thumbs, or anything else that draws attention to my hands, while wearing these on the chairlift. So priceless for getting uncomfortable stares from gapers. The grip is great and the extra finger really doesn't get in the way too much.

This thing is doper than a Volkswagen full of junkies. The drop-stitch fabric is really sick looking, and although it's super tech, it doesn't feel like a garbage bag, like some waterproof jackets do. Fits nice and big, with enough pockets to carry more than you could ever possibly want to...yet it's still not bulky. Plenty of room underneath to layer on those brutally cold days. I've already gotten about 2 dozen compliments on this thing after less than 2 weeks using it at the hill. I have the green one and I swear it almost glows in the sunlight.

The Fix is my park/dork-off board of choice. The Scoop Tech makes it basically impossible to catch your edge while you're throwing butters around and around, and the flex is soft enough to press and jib, but stiff enough to keep you confident when you're hauling ass. The ICS system gives you a ridiculous amount of stance options that you can adjust in about 30 seconds, so you can't make any excuses about how your bindings aren't set perfectly out on the hill :-D Overall, I would recommend this to somebody who likes to ride a lot of park, or wants a soft, jibbable board that is a ton of fun to ride.

I am a self proclaimed goggle whore and I have too many pairs of these. Bottom line is that the spherical lens makes for super clear vision, and the strap hinges help them fit great on a medium to wider face. Even around my furry Sasquatch dome. However, they also look totally sick, which is the real reason you are looking at them. It's OK to admit it, you're right.

I hope Anon never changes this goggle. I've had multiple pairs of them for as long as I can remember, and they are still so clutch. They fit great, don't fog up, and come in sick colors and prints. Highly recommended.
