If you like your bindings stiff, this is one of the best on the market for sure. High end design and tight fit, and very, very comfortable. Not to mention the adjustability is insane, to make it work perfectly with any boot. 2-thumbs up - these are on my all mountain 159, and tested over 75 days a year at Snowbird.

These are by far the most versatile bottom base layer in my collection. From medium temps (35?F) to very cold days (-10?F) these keep me toasty as well as super comfy. The elastic waist is not too binding yet holds firm, so the powder monkeys don't find their way down the back of your pants! Also the slightly shorter cut on the leg is great, IE: perfect sock/bottom overlap when stuffing into your boots.

I've used this table quite a few times on car camping trips and I'm very pleased. It packs small (bag included) and sets up fast. The really nice detail is it's all aluminum, so you can cook on it, unlike vinyl roll-up tables, and it cleans up good as new. For the price it's comparable to tables twice the price. You know you want one!

These gloves are absolutely bomber. Went out last week in -10 temps and forgot the inner liners they come with and thought I was screwed. But to my surprise I had no issues with my hands staying warm. I don't know how they do it because these gloves are very thin (almost like spring gloves) but are ultra toasty. Stinky D gives them 2 thumbs up!

After 18 years of snowboarding, my claim is the Fish is the best semi-twin tip powder board ever made. No matter how deep it gets, the nose always seems to surface because of its soft flex and setback stance...so no more "popping wheelies" or rear leg fatigue. Just sit back, relax and let this board do the work for you. FYI: This board is extremely powder specific, so when the snow gets hard/choppy it's a little soft in the stability dept.

Firstly, I am a big fan of the quality/fit of Circa shoes in general, and the 206's did not disappoint me. Solid shoes with great cushion and support, these are comfy shoes! Adds them to my collection of over 3 different pairs from the Circa brand.

I am very impressed with this jacket! It's got a sweet fit, pockets galore, pit zips, powder skirt, and a soft interior, but yet it's a light shell and not bulky with insulation. I do wish this jacket had a more adjustable hood...but I'd recommend it anyway. For it's price, it's something I can live with.

This has got to be one of the best camping innovations of its time. If you like coffee like I do, it's becomes crucial you get a nice hot, strong cup ASAP, and this little press delivers. Also very easy to clean and the lexan construction is tuff. FYI: I even used it for 2 months at home when my espresso machine broke. The only reason I gave it 4 of 5 is the tiny filter screen at the pour spout gets clogged very easily.

First glances reveal an midweight ultra minimal design while sporting roomy dual napoleon pockets & dual handwarmer pockets, enough storage room for the essentials. Took this out in stormy conditions with very heavy winds, and surprisingly stayed warm and dry...really changed my perception of what a pro style softshell can do for you. Fit is semi-snug without being too tight or bulky. If you are looking for a high end softshell, consider this one of the best on the market.

Perfect fit, pockets and vent zips galore, ghetto slits for da fat boots, Gore-Tex to stay dry in the worst conditions, killer fabric....what else can you say but these are Burton AK's! So you know it's cream of the crop in the Burton line and backcountry tested by their best riders. Go out and get your own!

Stiff, reliable and easy to clean. Plus, this doesn't scratch my nonstick pans like a titanium spork would. It works better than a fork IMO, and the spoon is large, IE: works well for soups. I've also had mine for 3+ years and it's bomber. Power to the sporks!

This travel hammock is awesome! It packs ultra small yet unfolds to a nylon oasis. I just used it daily for naps while camping for 5 days and just put it on my front porch when I came home. Used with the Byer of Maine MicroRope, you can string it up almost anywhere there's 2 solid points. The first 1-star review this recieved is WAY OFF!...It almost deterred me from buying it...but Stinky Dave says BUY IT!

I've used the bag about 6 nights, and love my new all-around 3-season gem. I find this bag warm well past the 30 degree rating (but I'm a warm sleeper). Initially, I bought the Marmot Pinnacle (15 degree down) but roasted when it was 25-30 degrees...so the Arroyo was the next step up. The quality of design/materials is top-notch and I love the zipper because it has stiff coating on the baffle which prevents snags. The down is plush, nylon interior is silky, and the shell feels like it could take some abuse...not like the nylon tissue paper of most ultralight bags. Weight is meager, and you can also compress this thing down to nothing (half a loaf of bread). The price may be on the upper end, but I have no qualms about paying for quality and something built to last. Buy this bag and you'll be down too.

Love, Love this shirt! Only those who are out there at the break of dawn, or first in the tram line, will get it. I'll wear this all year long or maybe they'll be a "dirt huffer" for the bike heads, who knows?

Bring on the corn! ...but only if there's no pow.

These slippers are like 2 Lamborghini's for your feet. They are crafted extremely well. They were a tight squeeze at first, but after a week or so of cruising around the house, they shaped to my feet perfectly. I'm only 34, but I plan on being buried in these slippers.

This is the killer travel grill! It works extremely well and is just amazing how it breaks down to clean, and packs very small. It's such a clever design and puts the old-style gas hibachi's to shame.

This shirt rocks! It feels like you have nothing on because it's so soft to the skin...and it wears really well in terms of not seeing abrasions. I got the black because it's the only size they had for me, and it didn't roast me in the desert like I expected. Plus it's easy to wash/dry for multi-day excursions.

I own this headlamp as well as the Black Diamond Zenix IQ. I find myself using this headlamp almost primarily because of its simplicity. The batteries last forever and it gets bright enough for task lighting around camp, which is what this was designed for.

This killer spork has downsized my utensil stash, now no need for a fork and a spoon! It grabs like a fork when you need it, but is large enough to sip your soup from. The best part is it's durable and very easy to clean. The clip is nice too, for connecting to your knife or multi-tool, when organizing for trips.

Now I can finally ditch the ziplock turkey bag I've been using for the last 3 years, yay! This travle kit is compact, yet it keeps unfolding with pockets galore. When my relatives see this bag hanging on their door, they will think I've finally made it to the big time, thanks DaKine!

Been rocking these goggles all season and I absolutely love them. The fit is amazing, they don't fog and the sensor mirror lenses are the bomb. I have the Saiman Chow artist version, so they get mad style points as well.

I have a small-medium face and these glasses fit perfect, love them! I previously owned a pair of Toasters for the last 6 years, and they have a similar size fit to these. The rubber bumpers on the ear/nosepiece ensure 100% non-slippage. And not to mention the style, these look sick! And oh BTW, you can change lenses, so make this your last pair of shades, period.

Whether lounging around the house, riding my bike, or hitting the slopes, this base layer rules! It's super comfy, has a great fit, and the nice design (especially the welded pocket) can take you out on the town and boost your style points in the process. I will order another one for sure.

Simple shirt, you get it or you don't. It's not a terrorist group, it's the ski patrol, to the rescue! Bombs are good, safety first boys and girls!

These pants have a timeless design. They probably look the same on the farmer who wore them in the 1930's, as they do on me! Very comfortable and durable fabric to boot, nice fit. I just need a pair for every day of the week.
