Betty Rides Classics Manic Jacket - Women's

Betty Rides Classics Manic Jacket - Women's

Rating for this product: 2 November 26, 2010

I had this jacket picked out last year and was very excited. Then come to get it and there are no gaiters in the wrist area...this is no good for utah powder. There is no medium pocket access from the outside of the jacket like all my other betty rides jackets. The media pocket is a small spot where an Ipod can fit snuggly. there is one other lower inner waist pocket but it is just annoying. The large is bigger than their other larges, the medium is bigger than other betty rides mediums. I need right in between. Switched from large to medium for a better fit, but the sleeves are not as long as I like and with no wrist gaiters that makes for cold arms which kept the rest of my body really cold. The zipper gets stuck at the bottom and is really hard to get started zipping up or to unzip to take off. This was the same on the other sizes I tried on, so it will be the same on all.

I have to say this is the biggest disappointment in betty rides gear I have had in the past 4 years of purchasing it. I am still in big debate about returning it...I love the look of it, but the functionality is just not where I need it to be. I just really feel like they cut corners on this jacket...which is a bummer for how awesome it looks.

Nomis Contour Insulated Pant - Women's

October 26, 2010

The pants are insulated but for -20 I would get a good baselayer. When I go night boarding in these pants I put a pair of light weight sweat pants on and it keeps me toasty.

The blue colors should match.

These fit true to size I would say. I typically wear a large in snowboard pants but I am 5'8" with long legs so I got the XL for the length to be long for me. I like my pants to drag a little.

I would say go with large if you are going to be in really cold weather to give you room to layer. but mediums should work good for you. These pants are a boot cut also.

these rock and I love them so so much!

This hoody is super awesome. I have gotten lots of compliments on it. I like the button up more than I thought I was going to. I can wear it more than a zip up becasue I can undo buttons and let air in. It is fun to undo the bottom button for a different look. It is not a super heavy hoody. Great for layering under a winter jacket or wearing in fall.

I got this jacket in a large. I normally wear a medium and a medium would have fit perfect, but I like to put a light down coat layer inside. I coach snowboarding and standing around in the cold, I need to be able to layer good. The large is a little big on me, but that is in style right now. It is a warm coat and the colors are great!

I have a hard time with smith goggles they don't fit my noise correctly. Electrics are another brand goggles that fit me good. I like the sizzles better, they feel more light weight on my face. They fit perfect with my giro helmet.
The foam is good quality and helps keep my face warm. The strap has rubber on it to help keep them in place. The Beirut By Night Pink/Bronze Chrome color is actually a neon pink, not the rose color it looks like.

Rating for this product: 5 November 13, 2008

This is a great jacket. I am a solid medium and the medium fits me perfectly. I with the sleeves were a little longer, but I guess the sleeves are made to have gloves go outside and not inside the sleeve. There are really long hand gaiters to keep snow from coming up. The powder skirt sits higher up on the waist, but I snowboard so my snowboard pants sit a little lower than technical ski pants. overall the jacket is great and the insulation keeps me nice and warm. The vents on the sides do not have mesh or anything to keep things out.

the color is fantastic I have the blue atoll color. The close up photos show the color true. Magenta zippers and a very pretty bright light blue for the jacket color.

This jacket is awesome! I have it in a medium and it fits me perfectly. Everyone loves the baffling on it. The only downside to the baffling is it is welded and so where the baffling is there is no insulation. I was in jacksonhole and wearing is casually and I had a t-shirt under it and my arms got a tad cold where the baffling is. I just wear a long sleeve under it now and it is a great. Keeps me super warm. The fabric is not stiff, it is very soft and movable. So cute and awesome. you will love it! Check out photos of it on my blog

Betty Rides Window Pane Rocker Pant

Rating for this product: 5 November 12, 2008

The fit on these is a little on the large side. In most brands if I get medium it is perfect in the waist, sometimes a tad bit snug, but the length NEVER fits me. I am 5'8" and about 135lbs. I have long legs and I went with medium in these rocker pants and they fit me PERFECT! I could not have asked for a more perfect fit.

I am in between medium and large, normally go to large to get length and wear a belt. I will not need to wear a belt with these and the length could not be more perfect. no high waters an no massively dragging pants.

They have polyfill insulation and that is awesome to help on cold days. The fabric moves well. Overall satisfied.

Tight in the shoulders. The matix hoodies have always bit a little snug in the shoulders and arm pit area. This one is a little more snug that previous ashers I have gotten. The waist feels a little more snug also. I am a typical medium. I am not sure if a large would be too big, but it would be a little more comfortable, less constraining feeling. Love the colors though on this.

Burton Sapphire Snowboard Boot - Women's - 08/09

October 21, 2008

By "other boot" do you mean ski boots? Order snowboard boots .5 or 1 size smaller than your street shoes. If your feet are on the wide side, go with 6.5. If they're on the narrow side, go with 7. This seems backwards, but it's because with ski/snowboard boots, the half sizes tend to be the same length as the whole size, just wider. I wear a 9, but my snowboard boots are 8.5 and ski boots are 7.5. You can also always go to a ski shop, get fitted, find a boot, then come back here and order online to get a better price :-).Milly says: Well considering online pricing for burton and shop pricing are the same, then you can get the same deal where-ever you go. But anyways. I wear a 7 1/2 shoe. I have always gotten the sapphires for 4 years in a 6 1/2 it takes a bit of time, but they pack out. Always a snug fit though. This year I got these in a 7 1/2 and they feel perfect. I will be coaching and on my feet a lot so I chose a larger size so I don't cramp my toes being on my feet in boots all day. If I was not coaching this year I would have gone with a 7 to require less packing out time and just a little less toe crunching fit. This year the liners are already pre wired to for heat. Which was my big concern with smaller boots, lesss circulation. I would say 6 1/2 should be the smallest you go in this boot.

Rating for this product: 5 October 21, 2008

I demoed this board last winter and it was a powder day at snow basin. I was really skeptical about having a twim tip 148 CM on my feet that was not banana technology. But it actually was really fun in the powder and handled really well. Quite poppy and responsive. It was fun on whoops and whomps and did good on groomers as well. Overall I was impressed with this board. I would like to have it in my quiver if I could afford more boards this year.

I wish they would have worked harder on the design. I have the hoody that has that design on it from last season and it was a guys hoody. Come on DC...Give the girls stuff some credit by spending time to make a female graphic. I do like the shoe lace look. I am all about women's boards getting the same treatment as mens!

I loved the forum craft a lot and this is similar but softer than the Forum craft. I agree with the other reviews, you can size down on this. It was very fun, spinned and buttered great. It did feel a little wobbly at high speeds, but hey that happens when you size down and have less dampening. So it is a true park board. You won't regret getting it.

I love this board for Park riding and some groomer cruising. I rode it on a deep pow day in utah, forgot my other board in salt lake and only had this or my 143cm k2 va va voom. So I chose this. It was not super great in the powder like other claim. Maybe if I have a size up from my 148. Being a twin tip it did not rocker back enough in the powder. But as far as park and pipe riding this is really fun. Had lots of fun days in the pipe with this baby. I wear size 6 1/2 boots and this narrow board was so responsive for my small feet and bindings. You will NOT regret getting this board AT ALL.

Rating for this product: 5 October 21, 2008

Ok T1's...let me tell you about T1's I still have my first T1 from 4 seasons ago. It still has camber in it when I lay it flat on the ground. I used it for 2 full seasons and throw it on every now and again. It has now moved to me early season board. What I love about this board is it is the same as the men's Just offered in a few smaller cm lengths and with a female driven graphic. Girls can shred just as hard as the boys. It is a bit stiffer than some noodly jib sticks out there. I am not a huge huge fan of super soft boards. They loose their verstaility for all mountain. This is fun and you will enjoy it anywhere on the mt. Won't get the speed whobbles like the noodle park boards. It does decent in powder, but hey...any park twin tip will only do so well unless it is banana technology or rocker.

The heal strap this yaer has a bubble padding as opposed to squishy padding. We will see how the bubbles hold up this season. The material the air bubbles are held in seems durable. The hea straps and toe straps are easier to adjust length on this year as opposed to last years. I have a year over year comparision on burton escapades over the past 3 years on my blog.

Super stoked to try it out. I love magne traction and banana technology! So amazing. This board is not as soft as my skate banana, but that is why I got it. to have a little stiffer board and a softer board. I will write more once I have tested this mofo out on the snow.

You may want to look at the Venture Parka as opposed to the Venture Jacket. It is significantly longer length and will probably fit you better than the jacket version.I am about 5'8" and thin, but the small jacket is too short in the arms and torso for me. The thing to watch out for on north face items is the sleeves. Even if the torso is longer in a different jacket, does not mean the length in the arms will be longer. Get it in 2 sizes and return what does not work.

Marmot PreCip Jacket - Women's

August 13, 2008

The fit depends on how your body is shaped. I tend to find marmot stuff a little short length for me and north face fits pretty good for me. The precip fits a little shorter in the torso than the venture jacket. Not sure on the breath-ability. Hyvent on the north face is their technology comparably to gore-tex. They both have pit zips to help vent when you need it. The marmot website claims that precip is the lightest and most breathable rainwear fabric in the world.So I think either one you go with will be great. If you run into a problem of things running short in the waist go with the venture for sure. backcountry has a great return policy.

The waist on this does not hit as low as other down jackets. so if you need something to keep your lower hips warm you might want a another coat. but 500 downfill is pretty warm. I think it will keep you warm. on really breezy cold days you could put a shell over it for added protection and warmth from the wind.

The North Face TA Denali Jacket - Women's

The North Face TA Denali Jacket - Women's

Rating for this product: 5 August 13, 2008

Fits true to the original denali jacket sizing. I would get a medium and that is what I wear in all jackets and shirts. If you are on the cusp of small to medium co with small. These tend to run a tad on the larger side. Just be weary if you go small the sleeves are shorter.

The pink, blue and purple colors are really really bright and crazy. So if you are a bold person you will love this jacket.

Rating for this product: 5 August 13, 2008

The fit on these is great. Medium fit is dead on. I wear medium in all shirts and jackets and the medium in this fits me great. I got to help on the sizing of this piece and it is really dialed. Great fabric feel and the color is a very pretty lavender. flap on the back side of the zipper top so your chin does not get all chaffed.

Nitro Runaway Snowboard - Women's

Nitro Runaway Snowboard - Women's

Rating for this product: 5 August 4, 2008

This board is awesome. I have previously had the Nitro Nyx and there were times I thought it was just too still. This is basically a softer version of the Nyx. Nitro heard women saying the Nyx was stiff and made us this board. This board is really fun, poppy and responsive. Does great booking down the mt or in the park. I rode this board at the very end of last season and did not end up on any rails, but jumped with it and it was poppy off the lips. Fun on side hips and goofing around on the fun jumps and whoops on the side of groomed runs. I took this out kiteboarding one day also and it was fun to kiteboard with. comfortable to lean back into the heal edge and cruise. This is a great board and it will not disappoint.

Rating for this product: 5 July 29, 2008

These are awesome. they fit perfectly true to size. The same size I wear in volcom and other roxy things regularly is what I got these in. These are very comfortable and look great with a nice top or a t-shirt. I took a road trip from Utah to California and back and wore these. They were comfortable in the car, great at the beach and walking around all over the place. Durable material, but not stiff. Great pockets. Hits perfectly above the knee. Great Bermuda length. Love them!

I got these in the same size I wear in other roxy bottoms and what I also get in volcom bottoms and these were a tad tight. I would size up to the next size. It was not only tight in the waist but in the thighs also. Great looking short though, great length, great color.

Rating for this product: 5 July 29, 2008

True to size. I wear a medium in volcom, roxy, nikita, DC and this medium fit like they do. Good length on it. A nice cotton material, not see through or super thin like a lot of tees are turning into. The magenta is a great color, the site really shows the color well. Good way to wear a tee but not have a baggy fit one on. Big fan of this shirt.

I LOVE THIS SHIRT! I was kinda skeptical about how this was going to look, until I saw a co-worker with it on and then i was SOLD! This is my new favorite shirt. I wore it at the beach and it was so nice and easy to slip on after surfing. looks amazing with some bermuda shorts. Great length, great everything about it. Fits true to size. The thing I love so much also about it, you can have one of those Chubby feeling days and throw this on and look so cute and no one thinks you look chubby!

Rating for this product: 5 July 29, 2008

This is a great tent! SO SO EASY TO SET UP and take down. people were in shock how fast I got it set up. It has double doors so you don't' have to crawl over each other and each door has it's own vestibule so you can store your stuff on your side. comes with a foot print which is awesome. I would recommend using the foot print. I have a women's long thermarest and it fits great in, with room to spare. I got this tent so if I went somewhere where it was super warm I wouldn't feel like I am in a zoo with a all mesh tent with out a rain fly on. Ventilates well. The rain fly has a plastic window on it, so when the sun comes up a little bit of light pokes through at the top. Overall great tent for the price. I would recommend this to people.

Burton Escapade Snowboard Binding - Women's - 08/09

Rating for this product: 5 July 29, 2008

These year after year are my favorite bindings. I wear a size 6.5 boot and mediums can adjust down small enough and smalls can adjust large enough. I choose to go with the mediums so if people need to borrow bindings and have normal sized feet they can borrow mine. The flex on these are great. offers awesome support and cushioning. I am stoked on the top caps for this years bindings. Just offers a better fit on the toes. I use these bindings for everything. powder, park, pipe and kiteboarding. Great dampening in the heal and foot. You don't feel every little bump or whomp in the snow. Stomping landings don't hurt in these either. you will love life in these bindings.

Burton Lexa Snowboard Binding - Women's - 08/09

Rating for this product: 5 July 29, 2008

I got these last year in a medium. I have a 6.5 boot size. I found the toe cap to be to big in last years model. the new toe cap this year allows the mediums to fit my foot. I could do smalls or mediums with my boot size. I choose medium so I can lend my board and bindings out to friends to try out or what not. there is a lot of adjustments you can do on these bindings, which is awesome. Tweak them around to fit perfect. They are soft but not too soft. I do feel that if I am riding a big stiff snowboard that I would want a stiffer binding. But for typical cruising, park riding and having fun these are great. Good dampening under the foot compared to other companies. Overall this is a great binding that has a great look and overall comfort.

Burton Stiletto Snowboard Binding - Women's

Rating for this product: 5 July 29, 2008

I wear these for freestyle. They are too soft to really be doing super aggressive riding in. Just not responsive for that.
These are a great price point stylish binding. Less plush that the high up burton bindings, but gets the job done. I wear a 6.5 Burton boot and I can go with either small or medium in these bindings. Both adjust larger or smaller to fit perfect. Not as much cushioning as my other Burton bindings, but still comfortable. A nice flexie binding, great if you love to do rails and park. Good if you are a beginner. I would not personally use these in banked slalom races or anything like that. I love the color style selections they have to offer this year. all look super rad in person.

Lib Technologies Skate Banana Original Narrow BTX Snowboard

Lib Technologies Skate Banana Original Narrow BTX Snowboard

Rating for this product: 5 July 29, 2008

I was lucky and got this board last year. in the 148 narrow width. I have 6.5 women's size boots. I cannot even put into words how fun this board is. I am 5'8" 135 lbs and I can ride my 148 in deep pow with no problem. it spins and butters so awesome and is so fun. It is awesome in the pipe. You can not ride this board once and really have a good grasp in all it can do. I get sick of arguing with people who only ride it once or twice. Ride this thing for a week + and you will not know how you lived life with out it. It took a little bit of time to get used to it on rail and pipe, but once I figured out how it turns and balances....MONEY! I went back to a regular board a few times this year and I just wished the whole time I was back on my banana board. I use this snowkiting and it is awesome. Reduces the amount I have to lean back while cruising. This is great in bumpy snow and crud. The most amazing all around board out there! With the magne-traction, you will never loose an edge.

CAMP USA XLC 490 Universal Crampon

Rating for this product: 5 July 14, 2008

I went to St. Mary's Glacier July 12th and these made all the difference. even though the snow was slushy and hard underneath, I never slipped or fell with these. Everyone else was struggling getting up the slush and me and my friend just went straight up no problem. Never felt unsafe or that I was going to go sliding down. I felt less fatigued because I did not need to kick my toes in really hard to kept from sliding. These were really easy to put on my snowboard boots. They adjusted small enough for my women's 6.5 boots. With room to go smaller. I tested them with my running shoes and they fit women's 8 running shoes and even my 7.5 skate shoes. They were really easy to put on and take off. I would recommend these for snowboarders and people who need a little extra support on snow and ice in normal style shoes.

Rating for this product: 5 July 14, 2008

I love this backpack and have posted about it before. but I recently took it snowboarding because I needed a bigger pack that my snowboard one. I totally jimmy rigged this for my snowboard to fit on it. It was awesome. Provided more support than my snowboard pack does. I took the straps that hold the top compartment down and did a cross through my bottom binding. then took a rope and tied the top of my board to the shoulder straps and it held my board so snug and awesome! I put my crampons in the bottom of the pack so I could easily get them out with out taking my board off. I had my crampons in a case so it did not tear the fabric. I was pretty stoked on this bag. I used it July 12 and 13th in the heat on a glacier and so the breathable material on the back of the pack was awesome and I did not get all sweaty on my back like on other backpacks. So this pack is much more useful than I could ever imagine. I have used it for so many things it is crazy. You will get your use out of this backpack!

Rating for this product: 5 July 3, 2008

I love love love my leather chaco flips and I wear a size 8 in those. I am typically a 7 1/2 to and 8. I went against the reviews saying to size a full size up. But my leather chaco flips I have in a size 8. Wow...the size 8 was too small in these flips. I even compared lengths on my leather flips and these and my size 8 flips were around 1 inch longer. So I WILL be returning the size 8 for a size 9 and I am sure those will be just perfect. Bummer that Chaco can't just to the same length in all their stuff. I wear a size 8 in all my 4 chaco shoes that I have.

I got these for my boyfriend. he is around a 7 1/2-8. More on the 7 1/2 size. So I knew from reviews and my experience in the women's flips that these runs small. So I got him the size 9. they fit him really well. there is extra length at the front of the flip. He must not have as long of toes as the chaco foot model they used for designing around. I am really glad I did not go with the 8, would have been too small!

This board is super fun. I demoed this board last spring and it was a blast. It is true to what the description says for it. It is soft but not too soft, stiff but not too stiff. I did not feel like I was on a noodle, but It was not too stiff that I felt like I have a thick plank of wood on my feet. It was responsive, poppy and fun. spins around nicely and easily. I was stoked on this board before I tried it and I am blown away again by k2. Really taking women's snowboarding serious. I have tiny feet 6.5, small bindings and with my little feet I still got great response on this board.

K2 Snowboards Bliss Snowboard Binding - Women's

Rating for this product: 5 July 3, 2008

These were pretty fun bindings. I wear a 6.5 boot and used the medium. Normally I use a small in k2 bindings, but medium is what worked for me. I demoed these last spring and they are pretty fun. they have a nice rubber base that goes over the screws. I really like this because if you get a loose screw at all or anything then you know it can really only come out so far because you have something over the top of them holding them down. it helps with the dampening and stomping stuff. easier on the ankles and just gives a little extra something. I did not run into problems of snow getting stuck on it. there are no metal spots for the snow to freeze on. Overall good freestyle binding. Not the best for real aggressive riding or a really stuff board. But if you rock park and the rest of the mt. this is a great binding to fit both.

K2 Charm Snowboard Binding - Women's

K2 Charm Snowboard Binding - Women's

Rating for this product: 5 July 3, 2008

beefed these up a bit for the 08-09 season. I did not test these out on a board, but at the demo day last spring where we were testing the new stuff these looked better than last years bindings. I demoed last years charm and wasn't unimpressed but wasn't not impressed. I would consider these more freestyle, beginner to intermediate.overall it is what you pay for. As far as other reviews saying the binding doesn't bounce back. I have run into this problem on all of my Burton bindings also. ratchets are easy to replace. and as far as screws not staying in. If you are on a different brand's board they may have a little different threading in the holes. Get some "lock tight" and that will help hold screws in also. over all I would get these bindings for my sisters set-up. price point and in the range of her ability.
