Get ready for some high performance speed! The Legend Pro is a skier’s ski designed for those who know what they want, and are ready to go after it! I ski the 186 in every condition. I can turn ‘em when I want to and they will go as fast as I want to go!

This is one of my favorite bags in my OGIO travel arsenal. The Layover has so many uses. It is sturdy, well designed and easy to use. I can fit my B.A.S.E. rig and check it on the plane or fit my ski boots for carry on when I can’t afford to loose them. Most of all it is perfect for a 2-3 day travel bag.

I have been capturing footage with the POV.1 since this summer. I have used it skiing, BASE jumping, surfing, dirt biking, as well as other random activities. The unit is tough, waterproof and easy to use. The 720 x 480 resolution is superior to other POV cameras and the upload to my computer is mindless. The POV.1 has made it easy and enjoyable to capture POV footage on a regular basis. I have never run out of card space and It is nice to be able to play clips back to see what type of shots you are getting.

Unfortunately ski boots are often the worst part about skiing. Cramming into the rigid plastic and having to function in a boot can really suck! Lange has always been known for their high performance but not necessarily comfort. The new Freeride plug boot is a much better fit with same high-end performance. I am in them every day and I don’t know what I would do without my Lange’s.

Look has built some of the best bindings since they have been around. The p-18 is one I have used for years and I have trusted is many serious situations. The binding has released when it needed too and stayed on when my life depended on it. The toe piece is the best there is and not to dealing with the turn table of the old p-18 is a nice change.

This is my go-to goggle. To me the most important things in a goggle are the fit, your peripheral vision and the lens. The Motive fits my face perfectly and does not obstruct my peripheral. There are many lens options and frame styles. I never worry about my vision with the Motive.

Alright so the trekkers are not the best tool ... but they work. When you want to get in the backcountry with your regular alpine set up, they are a means to an end. I have been using them for many years and if used properly they will go the distance with you. They can be heavy, awkward and fragile in some situations. If you spend the time and figure out the techniques, they can help you get wherever you want to go!

The Huge Trouble is one of my favorite skis Dynastar has made in years. It is a great ski for just about anything. I have skied this ski all over resorts, the backcountry and the big mountains of Alaska. It is an amazing powder ski but will hold up to the hard pack and crud. The little camber allows the ski to be playful, and easy to ski in most situations. The construction is built tough and the ski will hold up to most challenges.

Bern Helmets keep getting better and better. Not only do they look good and fit good but they work well and will save you dome. The sound system is a complete bonus. Once you try a Bern you wont go back!

This is one of the best backcountry packs I have used. Its a perfect size and the avalung is key. The packs features are simple and straight forward but it has everything you need.

This is a sweet watch. Its super functional and looks good. The 51-30 is a little big for me so this watch is just the right size.

This bag is a great travel bag for 2-3 day trips. Ogio bags are very tough and they stand up to the brutal test of constant traveling. This is a must have bag!

I have used several types of beacons and I find the Trackker to be the easiest and the most accurate. After a quick lesson and some practice time you will quickly develop confidence in your retrieval process. Try one out and you will see the difference.

They make you ski really fast. Their grips are my favorite and the white leather straps are so stylish.
