Love this beanie..haven't taken it off since it arrived! Spacecraft beanies seem to run small and this one fits perfectly. The lining keeps me from itching my head (like other beanies) and is super comfy. Overall, stylish beanie for a smaller head.

Ordered the hot pink pair to add some color to my snowboard gear. Love the warmth of these gloves and the lack of pull strings. The gloves fit true to size.

Protec's Ace Freecarve Helmet is great for all types of mountain riding. This is the original style from the first line of snowboard helmets and it's a classic for a reason. It's rugged design can take a chunk of falling ice or a brutal bail. I agree with the other reviewers; the helmet runs small in size. I have a smaller head for a female and wear a medium in protec. Best suggestion is to up a size for this company (if you wear medium order a large). The reviews are correct about protec running small. The vents offer a good amount of cool air into the helmet, however, I love keeping them closed and staying warm. The goggle strap is super helpful and easy to secure with gloves on. I'll say that Protec is one of my favorite companies..so I'm a little biased. There are plenty of awesome helmet companies on the market and the most important thing is to protect your brains! For $39 this helmet is an awesome deal.

Although the description reads 8,000/5,000 the pants are actually rated at 10,000/8,000! That's awesome because the higher the rating, the longer the riding lasts without "wetting out". The mannual style snowboard pants are baggy throughout the legs (not a skinny jean fit) and have plenty of room for pants underneath. Since the pants are baggy it makes the crotch hang a little lower (kinda normal on snowboard pants). ((I ordered a small (pictured) and stand 5'5 and weigh 118lbs)). The cuffs are wide enough to fit over my boots and they expand by unsnapping the side. The gaiters come with one hook for the boot laces. Zippered vents on the inside thighs are lined with mesh to cool you off when riding. The insulated pants aren't super heavy but still keep me very warm (glad there's vents). Storage options include one cargo pocket on right side and a butt pocket; both close with velcro. The standard side pockets are lined and zipper closed to protect keys/wallet. Overall the quality is excellent for the price ($60) and I'm excited to be warm and stylish on the mountain.

Ladies, this gorgeous 686 "allure" aka mannual jacket is 10,000/8,000 and super stylish. The jacket runs a tiny bit longer in the arms and torso than the other small 686 jackets I own, however, I think that's the style. (I stand 5'5 and weigh 118 lbs for size comparison). The turquoise color is brighter than the picture and looks amazing in person. The jacket has pit zippers with tucked in mesh armpits (higher quality jacket feature), two lined/zippered pockets and an adjustable hood. Usually, I cut out my powder skirt but this jacket offers snaps to tuck the powder skirt up and away. If you are not familiar with waterproofing.. it boils down to each 1,000 = 1 hour. This jacket should keep you warm and dry while riding for 10 hours; that's a long time. The jacket is not super bulky, not super light..it's like goldylock's jacket "just right" and super warm! The left inside of the jacket has a clear zippered pocket with a headphones slit and a giant mesh pocket on the right side. The bottom of the jacket can be cinched tighter with the pull cord to keep snow out while riding. For $70 this jacket will keep you warm, stylish and happy while shredding on the mountain.

This backpack offers an awesome simple and slim design. I love this pack so much, I purchased two of them. It's roomy enough to hold knee pads plus a helmet or books and laptop. The curved padded straps are well built and feel comfortable on your shoulders. The zippers are high quality, look cool and function properly. I personally enjoy the padded inside section for my laptop and the zipper pocket for storing my wallet/phone. The slim design looks great and I've received compliments on both colors. Two thumbs up.

These DVS "Benny" shoes are super comfortable. The insole is like walking on expensive carpet. The blue is a bit duller in real life than shown in the picture but is still super cute. Great for hanging around the boat, the beach or just the house. Not a skateboard shoe (rip in 3 ollies) but you could longboard with no problems of bailing. Super cute and under $20 = oh yeah!

Purchased the white, green, black and purple colors of the Flava watch. The purple, black and green watch bands are made out of a very flexible shinny plastic material. The white watch band is thicker and made of rubber. Both materials are super cool and comfortable on the wrist. The watch has a light, timer, date, day, alarm, stop watch, military or reg time and is water 5ATM resistant. I've worn (rotated) the purple, black and green watches for three weeks and they look brand new. (Just got the white one). The back of the watch is stainless steel (no metal rash!). (For those of you that are allergic to metal or get skin rashes from cheap jewelry). The bands are sized for a small to medium wrist..giant sized man wrists are a no go. Great basic watch that adds color and fun to your day.

Excellent quality, color and design. Picked up the Nooka Strip Belt in the regular blue back in December '11. Wear it almost everyday and still looks new. Stainless steel backing is awesome (no skin rash) and the belt is fun to "click". Not clunky at all (like most belts that have gone for a seatbelt look before). Your friends will ask to borrow. Looks great with any pair of jeans or pants. Get a little NYC in your day with the Nooka Strip Belt. *Rugged enough to wear during any activity.

Own the pink version of the shutter (Dec '11). I like the stainless steel backing and the adjustable leather band. Both are comfortable and great for sensitive skin (no skin rash). The face of the watch stays clean and has yet to scratch. Gave the shutter 3.5 stars; the watch is a little clunky/heavy in design and does not show the date. It also has a plastic clasp, where metal would have given the watch a quality feel. Bonus or bogus depending on your view...the band is connected to the watch with a spring loaded pin. It you pull too hard on the strap the pin will pop out. Easy to pop back into place..just don't lose it!

This is more of a fashion watch and not made for wearing while on the mountain, skating or skimming. For the price/savings get it if you liked it in the stores..but didn't like the $ tag.

Ladies! Excellent watch for an excellent price. I've worn this watch for a few days now; it's very comfortable, light weight, great looking and runs smoothly (very quiet). Band is almost two inches wide and fits a small wrist snuggly. The watch does expand to fit different sized wrists (awesome). I "love the hotness" of this watch, even though I'm not a huge fan of the color orange.

Helpful Hints: Caseback (back of watch) is stainless steel. Being allergic to certain metals..so far have NOT gotten a "metal rash". Yippie! To set this watch, remove the plastic looking tooth located by the dial.
