Happy Holidays!
Insulated Growler By Hydro Flask – $55.00
So insulated bottles keep your beverages hot, or cold… or they can keep a frosty beverage frosty and not frozen!
Fleece Onesie By Patagonia – $200.00
A fleece onesie, with a hood… what’s not to love. This thing will be just as happy on the couch snuggling in front of the fire as it is destroying pillows in the backcountry. Get one for your significant other and one for yourself.
Fat Waxless Skis… The Vector By Voile – $575.00
This is quite a unique product and regardless of whether you explore on lightweight AT equipment, or more traditional 3-pin gear almost everyone that plays in the BC wants a pair of these, though they probably won’t purchase them for themselves. And, that makes these the perfect gift!
Marker Kingpin Binding – $600.00
The Kingpin is one of the newest entries to the tech binding market and it has some innovative features. The Kingpin is expensive, hard to find, and comes in gold… all things that are sure to please an unsuspecting recipient that already has everything.
Carbon Megawatt Skis By Black Diamond – $1000.00
These things are enormous, yet they weigh less than many smaller skis. They aren’t cheap, but pair these with some lightweight bindings and boots and you’ll have the perfect weapon for that next big dump! On second thought… don’t buy these for someone else… get them for yourself!
