Take the snowboarder look out of the park with the Patagonia Slopestyle Hoody 2.0. This eco-friendly hoody features 60% recycled polyester, a DWR finish, and and two handwarmer pockets. Although the hood isn’t helmet-compatible, he Slopestyle’s plaid look is great to pop on when you’re chilling at the lodge.
Get a perfect “gansta” look on the slopes with the Loki Morf Pullover Sweatshirt. Great for boarding down on a warm sunny day, the Morf is a sweatshirt that has mittens and a face shield built-in. There’s even a hidden MP3 pocket so that you can rock the tunes.
The North Face Steep Tech Transformer Jacket doesn’t turn into a robot but it does have some pretty cool features for the snow.
The Hyvent Shell offers a DWR finish, stowaway hood, and dual chest pockets. The coolest part of this jacket is that also has a detachable, low profile backpack on the back. The backpack snaps on and off and is perfect to carry a few essentials for your backcountry adventures.
It was probably the colorful skull design but this Smith Variant Brim Helmet immediately caught our eye. We looked into the helmet a bit more and there seems to be a ton of nice features too. The Variant has adjustable vents to keep you cool when you’re riding hard and it uses AirEvac 2 technology to help channel moist air away from your goggles and over your head.
BTW – there are a bunch of other colors and patterns if skulls ain’t your thing.
Dude, how can you go wrong with Black Limo lens goggles! The Giro Station Goggles looks super fierce and has the guts to back up the look.
The injection-molded cylindrical lens offer 100% UVA/UVB/UVC protection and limits fogging. The Black Limo lens provide enhanced clarity and visual definition in super sunny conditions.
There’s dual-density face foam with a moisture-wicking fleece to keep the cold weather out plus a great fit to work with or without a helmet.
With an homage to the great outdoors, the statement “Wish You Were Here” says it all for the Ride Slackcountry Snowboard. Free yourself from the office and hit the slopes at the first sign of snow. The Slackcountry has an ultralight design and is shaped to excel on fresh powder.
It’s ok, play hookie, get outside, and rub it in your buddies face.
Save minutes getting into your bindings means that you get to ride more. Check out the K2 Auto Bindings where the Auto means that that the toe strap automatically closes and opens with the ankle straps. Definitely a pretty cool innovation. The toe and ankle strap tension is independently customizable. In fact, the toe strap tension can be set once and the system will return to that tension on every strap in.
The Trailheads Goodbye Girl Ponytail Hat is a great example of a product that gets it. Women like to put their hair in ponytails and they wouldn’t mind doing so even in cold weather. The Ponytail hat is made of Polartec Thermal Pro Fleece so you’ll be warm and toasty on cold days. The hat also as a DWR finish so if you fail in a bit of snow you’ll still be dry.
