Jon over at Descent World took the new Blizzard Winter gloves from Lizard Skins out into the muck recently to see if they work as well as they claim. It sounds like he was relatively impressed as his hands were the only thing that stayed dry. The Blizzard gloves are made out of neoprene for [...]
One of the most well known names in the freeride movement, Richie Schley, signed up with Rocky Mountain back in 1996. NSMB reports that they have now parted ways and it will be interesting to see who picks up this icon.

As more companies look to cash in on the iPod scene we’ve seen some nice offerings for the active set. We have mentioned the iPod compatible backpacks from Camelbak’s Skull Candy line as well as O’Neil’s H3.series. Nike has jumped into the fray with their C.O.R.E. iPod audio backpack. The C.O.R.E. offers the ability for [...]
I saw a little article on Descent-World this morning about Electric Visual’s 2007 goggles. I’m a sucker for crazy colors and thought I’d check them out.
