New Gear for the Season


Ride Delaware ?

Recommended Posts

Hoping to start the season with a new freeride-ish board, most likely with an alternative camber. The GNU Billy Goat C2X has my eye at the moment.

 

I had the same thoughts last year, but decided on the Rome Notch 1985, glad i did. I have a GNU riders choice BTX, the Notch just feels so much better, and yes the notch is also reverse camber. I don't think im going to have a single cambered board in my quiver this year. In my opinion RC is the only way to go anymore.

I am going to be getting A Never Summer Evo 158 and a new pair of Union Forces to go with it. Picked up some Dakine Cobra gloves , and some new 686 outerwear from dogfunk that was deeply discounted. I need a new pair of goggles. Anyone have any recommendations? I like the Anon Figments I have now since they fit my R.E.D. helmet good and i have pretty much every lens for them, so I might just grab another pair. I also like the Smith I/O but don't know how they will fit. I guess I will have to wear my helmet to a couple stores and see how different goggles fit with it.

I picked up a Patagonia coat at Nestors for 40% off today. Also grabbed a pair of mountain khakis for work at 30% off. They still have a pretty good selection of stuff on the coat and pants racks in a variety of sizes. I'm limiting skiing gear spending this year to $500 I think... Still need new helmet, goggles, pants...

I was planning on getting a tele setup to try and learn this season, but instead I'm getting new paintball gear since I made the speedball team here. And I can't get off campus in the winter anyway...and of course I'm only 40 mins from Stowe :banghead

 

Next season my Army stipend is going into new skis though :D

Billabong Sample Sale in West Ocean City, MD today and picked up 2 pairs of snow pants... One is fleece lined for cold days, and the other is pretty light for warmer days... Both retailed together for $350 ($205 and $145) and I scored them for $40 a pop...
