Snowboarding/Skiing discussion.

[Monocle]

Anybody else snowboard or ski or do any other winter sports?

This year marks my 12th or 13th year of snowboarding, and my 5th year of competing. I have been ordering all of my gear for the competition season and free riding season, and this is my current gear/style setup:

http://www.dogfunk.com/dc-pbj-limited-edition-dcxneff-snowboard - I bought 2 of these snowboards.

http://www.dogfunk.com/never-summer-evo-snowboard - I bought 1 of this snowboard.

http://www.dogfunk.com/burton-white-collection-signature-trench-pant-mens-09-10 - I already have these.

http://www.dogfunk.com/burton-ak-3l-hover-softshell-pant-mens-bur3603 - I have these except mine are white, they're an older series that you cant buy anymore.

http://www.dogfunk.com/686-smarty-council-jacket-mens - I ordered this.

http://www.dogfunk.com/686-smarty-shadow-jacket-mens - I already own this.

http://www.burton.com/mens-boots-ruler-restricted-boots/235037,default,pd.html?start=12&cgid=mens-boots - I already own these from last season, but I might buy a new pair just in case.

http://www.burton.com/mens-bindings-custom-bindings/232231,default,pd.html?start=18&cgid=mens-bindings - I already own these, except mine are gray and neon green.


I also bought myself some neat side stuff, because it's cool :D

http://www.dogfunk.com/dragon-d1xt-goggle - These goggles.

http://www.dogfunk.com/spy-tron-sunglasses - I bought these in white.

http://www.dogfunk.com/nixon-newton-watch-mens - I bought this in white.

http://www.dogfunk.com/neff-bloop-beanie - I bought this beanie.



Yes, I spent a lot of money, but it's all gear that I'm gonna use through out the winter.

Anybody else get a new setup like I did?

You forgot the helmet 

Anyways I haven't stopped growing so I really don't have good stuff yet, just a mix match of jackets/pants and I rent :(


My goggles are like the only nice thing, Anon Helix's Amber Lense.

I unfortunately don't really live by the mountains but when I go, I go to Mountain High which is like 2hrs aways and Mammoth Mountain which is 6-8hrs away.


Nice setup too, not a big fan of burton's but neverless cool.

I'm sponsored by Burton so I get mega discounts on their stuff, as well as dogfunk, I get discounts there okn top of already cheap gear. I love all my new stuff.

Anon goggles are dope, they're really sturdy too.

No, none of the small name riders are. We just get long contracts and stuff. Lol.

Not sure, I have skiied but I wasn't a fan. Snowboarding was more fun for me since the beginning.

I used to snowboard all the time, but not anymore. I still have my board, but no boots or bindings.

I go cross-country skiing whenever I can, if there's enough snow. I love it.

Yer. Have you ever gone back country skiing?

Yeah, once. I would have gladly gone again because it was awesome but we've just never gotten around to it. :(

:c yeah, there's not much area to snowboard around here, I always have to drive a few hours north to Wisconsin to ride. I do go to Colorado, Utah, California and Europe with my sponsors for some team riding there. Its always great fun.

I ski and snowboard. Was thinking about getting sponsored this year if I was gonna ride snowboard  but I haven't decided yet. I was thinking about trying to snow-blade because I got a nice pair of blades for free and just need boots. :D

Snow blading is awful. I don't know a single person who didn't break a bone doing it. Its like sliding on ice on your shoes.

I love snowboarding. We go to White Pass every winter like 200 times. My dad snowboards alot too. I'm just now getting to the tricks. 35 feet ramps are scary.
