Reviews
Patagonia Super Cell Jacket
Patagonia's Super Cell is a lightweight, affordable hard shell designed with alpine climbing in mind. It also comes with Patagonia's "Ironclad Guarantee," which as you'll see, is a "feature" that shouldn't be overlooked.
Club Ride Vibe Jersey
The Vibe jersey is Club Ride's latest addition to their lineup. It's as much a casual shirt as it is a technical piece of gear, and it works as well on the bike as it does in a local brewery.
Five Ten Water Tennie
Five Ten's Water Tennie is comfortable in the boat, yet its Stealth Rubber sole still provides good traction for difficult portages.
First Look: CAMP Pulse Helmet
Blister reviewer Iris Neary takes a first look at the CAMP Pulse, one of the few combo climbing/skiing helmets on the market.
Five Ten Stonelands VCS
Though not an edging machine, the Five Ten Stonelands VCS strikes a good balance between sensitivity and performance. It also marks a new step in climbing shoe design.
2013-2014 Rossignol Angus
A light, poppy, playful board, the Rossignol Angus shines in fresh power and spring slush with its Amptek All-Mountain rocker.
Tenaya Tatanka
"The Tenaya Tatanka is easily the most comfortable aggressive climbing shoe I have ever worn."

New Balance Minimus 1010 Trail
The New Balance Minimus 1010 Trail provides an excellent combination of trail feel, cushioning, and protection.
2013 Turner Burner
The Burner is Dave Turner's entry into 650b. If you're thinking about making the jump to 27.5, the Burner should be on your shortlist.
Metolius Gatekeeper Belay Carabiner
The Metolius Gatekeeper is a very good cross-load-proof belay carabiner. (But just how useful is this safety technology, in general?)
Patagonia Freewheeler Max Rolling Duffle
If you've got to haul a bunch of gear, the Patagonia Freewheeler Max is a great option. And if you also have to pack some nice threads, too, the Freewheeler Max may be your best option.
Five Ten Maltese Falcon Bike Shoes
The Five Ten Maltese Falcon is a durable biking shoe that provides great traction. It's also comfortable and pedals well, especially if you've got wide feet.
Club Ride New West Jersey and Cargo Away Shorts
The Club Ride New West Jersey and Cargo Away shorts work really well on trail. And you'll probably wear them a whole bunch off the bike, too.
2016-2017 Blizzard Gunsmoke
For the 13/14 season, Blizzard has updated the Gunsmoke, and we approve. If you're looking for a playful ski that can still be skied hard all over the mountain, you need to check it out.
Salomon S-Lab Sense Ultra
The Salomon S-Lab Sense Ultra was built to fly. It does. Now read on to learn a whole lot about its fit, its durability, its trail feel, its traction, its competition, etc., etc., etc...
