Reviews
Five Ten Freerider VXi Elements
The Freerider VXi Elements is a definite improvement over the old Impact, and works very well in wet, cold conditions.
Polarmax Micro H2 Zip Mock
Good Fit, Good Performance, Good Value. There are reasons why reviewer Jed Doane calls the Polarmax H2 Zip Mock one of the best base layers he's ever worn.
2013-2014 Rossignol Jibsaw MagTek
"When I hit up smaller jumps or rails, the Jibsaw is the board I now grab 100% of the time."
2014-2015 Blizzard Bonafide
For those looking for a substantial, truly All-Mountain ski with a bit of a soft-snow bias, the Blizzard Bonafide warrants a look.
Icebreaker LS Siren Crewe
"I'd recommend the Siren Crewe to anyone looking for a base layer for any outdoor activity."
45NRTH Nicotine Tire
If you want a 29er tire that puts a premium on traction and will go around a corner as fast as you want it to, the 45NRTH Nicotine is a great option.
MHM Flatiron 42
The MHM Flatiron 42 is a well-designed, adjustable pack that bridges the gap between weekend trips and day excursions.
Polarmax Comp 4 Tech Fleece Crew and Tights
The Polarmax Comp 4 Tech Fleece crew and tight are quite warm, and very durable.
Wagner Custom Skis – The Design Process
Custom skis—are they worth it? Well, everything about the Wagner Custom Skis design process has been very impressive so far.
The North Face Radium Jacket
The fabric of the North Face Radium breathes better than almost any other insulator on the market.
2021-2022 Fischer Nightstick
The Nightstick is a very stiff, competition-ready park ski that can withstand excessive abuse.
Dry Case Waterproof Backpack
The Dry Case Waterproof Backpack is a good option for short, rainy day hikes and commutes.
Patagonia Capilene 4 Expedition Weight Crew and Tights
The redesigned Patagonia Cap 4 Crew and Tights strike a great balance between warmth, weight, and breathability.
Wolf Tooth Cyclocross Chainring
If you’re looking for a relatively inexpensive switch to a 1X setup for your cyclocross bike, the Wolf Tooth narrow / wide ring is a solid choice.
Industry Nine Enduro 29″ Wheelset
We tested these wheels for about a year and a half, and found them to be exceptionally durable and well designed.
NRS Zen Rescue PFD
Paddle Sports Editor David Spiegel dropped into the Grand Canyon of the Stikine with the Zen Rescue PFD strapped to his chest. How's that for an endorsement?
Mons Royale Supa Tech LS
What smells better than a Mons Royale Supa Tech LS base layer after about 30 days of hard use? Not much, actually.
2nd Look: Blizzard Gunsmoke
The Gunsmoke is a very good pow ski that can double as a surfy, all-mountain tool, too.
