New Gear Ordered - WooT

[dinanm3atl]

So finally after 12 years of skiing and getting bored... doing black diamonds and tearing up terrain parks on skis got boring I switched to snowboarding. 5 years in and time to buy my own gear :)

Got this stuff tonight! Just waiting for them in the mail.

Also... what is a good, tight fitting day pack for snowboarding that is not 150 dollars? The Dakine heli packs look nice and can be made tight to body with extra strap but damn they are too big. What can I get? I want shoulder strap and atleast 1 strap in the front across the chest. Needs to not be too thick as I am a "resort" person. Thanks! Links would be great!

Board - Millennium 3 Discord 160


Burton Custom Bindings - Size Large - On Sale for 97 with free shipping!!! Cap Strap!


DC Phase - Blk/Camo - On sale for 103 with free shipping!!!


I also found some deals that I could not pass up for some outer wear. I already have tons of left over North Face and Mountain Hardwear from skiing but some "snowboard" gear would be nice and the prices were right!!!

Mountain Hardwear Exposure II - Apparentl REI didn't sell the "rust" color well because the 200 dollar jacket was 64 dollars with free shipping to an REI store


Last Pair Dogfunk.com had in stock... Retail 185... $67 with free shipping!!!
Vans Snowboard Pants



I am excited!!! Anxiously awaiting on about 5 boxes from UPS/FedEx/USPS :)

Now just need to get some new goggles... i broke my Oakley's last year unfortunately :(

serious gear man!

any recommendations on the east coast for powder? I was thinking Virgina would be the closest for Feburary

[dinanm3atl]

um I have no idea...

I got to Snowmass in December for a week and then again in February for a week.

I am going to try North Carolina some winter and see what is there :( I think just ice...

West has the powder!!!

[kylebes1]

NC is just Ice. I really want to go west.

[dinanm3atl]

Snowmass is in Colorado. It is my favorite place

I have been to

Snowmass(like 12 times I think)
Breckenridge
Arapaho Basin
Whistler, BC
Park City
Deer Valley
Beaver Creek
Vail
Aspen

I used to ski... did that for 12 years... go bored showing up the noob boarders in the terrain parks hehe ;) But I switched because I was bored on skis. I did the drop in bowls, double black through tree. I wanted something new so I rented snowboard gear and spent 2 days on the bunny hill in Snowmass and the last 5 days I was boarding blues with the family :)

cant wait for this season

[dinanm3atl]

me neither!

[dinanm3atl]

Decided on this bag. Has two front straps. Can carry boards and is small so resort riding should be a snap!

+1,

Nice set up BTW, i just got a new one last year. Burton freestyle boots, Gnu bindings and GNU carbon highbeam 159. all for 300 dollars cause my friend who worked at a skate shop hooked me up.

[dinanm3atl]

Nice

You got the hook up :)

You make me excited for whistler this year. I think I'll actually get to make two trips in one month.

Hit me up when you go to Snowmass. My parents have a place there so I'm out there 3 to 4 times a year.

Congrats on the gear btw...

Don't bother it's generally man made junk. Save a few buck fly out west or go father north to VT/NH or ME. But that is even hit or miss.

Montana is my favorite as I have free lodging when I go, one of my sisters live in Missoula.
