Suunto MC-2G Navigator Global Compass
May 1, 2012
Hey Harold,
Good question, short answer is you will align to the magnetic pole closest to your hemisphere of origin, thus you will align to the south pole when in SA.
Long answer is:
standard/global compasses are the same except the painting/weight of the needle...
Here's an explanation (for a standard compass):
Basically in the northern hemisphere, the north end of the needle is pulled downwards toward the magnetic north pole and thus the south end of the needle is counter-weighted to balance the needle. So, when you use a northern hemisphere compass in the southern hemisphere, the south end of the magnet is pulled downwards by the magnetic field and is also heavier than the north end - which could result in the needle catching and dragging on the bottom of the compass housing when the compass is held horizontal.

Hey there, this jacket is a hardshell, meaning 3 layer... it just uses Goretex softshell material, which technically isn't softshell... its Goretex where the inside 3rd layer has a kind of soft/fleece face... I think this is a great all around jacket for what you are looking for... only thing you might consider is that this has a powder skirt and you may not want one...

Voile Split Kit (DIY)
February 6, 2012
Hey Jeremiah, I believe the board you have will have a center strip down the middle, like Neil talks about, but its not "foam" its actually sidewall material... it makes the split nice as you don't need to seal it... With this kit the bindings are in a fixed stance... The rotating stance system can be installed DIY, but requires some extra thought/work...
We can do it for you or hit us up for any other questions you might have!
