• Name: 2010 Vans Jaime Lynn
• Pros:  look fantastic in black, real solid/ comfortable feel, stay tight all day
• Cons:  expensive(but you get what you pay for),
• Fit:  mid
• Flex:  stiff
• Shoe Size:  9
• Boot Size:  9/9.5

Experience:   i bought these boots earlier this year but never really got a chance to thoroughly try them out. however i'm just home from my 1st riding session of the new season and thought i'd give them a review. firstly, well done to vans for making a killer looking boot. i have them in black and i think they look fantastic. next thing you notice is the comfort. granted these are the 1st pair of snowboard boots i own since i made the swap from skiing to boarding but these things are a joy to wear, and when done up tightly there is no discomfort or sore points at all, even directly out of the box..no breaking in time necessary! another great thing about these boots is the fastening system vans have in their new line boots. simply pull them tight in the morning and there glued tight all day! and its not as if your gonna wanna open them up during the day to free your feet up for awhile because there so damn comfortable there's no need! all in all i just love these boots and im glad i went for a high quality boot to start off with because while they are a bit pricey, you do get a great pair of boots in return!

• Name: 2012 Oakley Splice Goggles Men's
• Pros:  Look great, Good build quality, Good lenses
• Cons:  Lenses are pricey, Slightly uncomfortable on nose,

Experience:   I've always been a big fan of Oakley, i think the make fantastic products, and the 2012 neon orange splices are no different! Killer sharp look with great visibility and the massive range of lenses to choose from make these goggles great, then you take into account i got these for free with my 1500 points coupon and you can really understand why i adore these goggles. I have a pair of A-frames as well and to be honest i think they are more comfortable but it purely comes down to facial shape and your own preference. The lenses are a little pricey but i really can't complain considering i got these goggle for free so i will definitely be getting the fire iridium lenses. As with all goggles, try them on before you buy as some goggles will sit nicely on your face and some won't. But i love my splices, another great pair from oakley!

• Name: 2010 Sierra Stunt Wide Snowboard 159 Men's
• Skill:  Advanced
• Use:  Carving,Groomers,Low Speeds,Off Trail,Powder
• Pros:  Cheap, Looks great, Rocker
• Cons:  MY BASE STARTED TO PEEL OFF!!,

Experience:   I'm not going to sit here and say that this board is crap because it's not, it's actually a very good board. Fun graphics, poppy, flexy, great in park and powder becuase of it's rocker. I had a lot of fun with my stunt. It served me very well for 2 week long holidays and 2/3's of a season and I thought the world of my stunt! Did my first ever backflip, b/s and f/s 360's on it. You get the picture, i loved it. But around 4 weeks ago i noticed the base under the nose was peeling off. First just noticable then after a week it had peeled off about 6/7 inch and was starting to get water pockets along the length of both edges and under the base of the tail. this really annoyed me, specially because these boards along with the crew and r/crew are made by burton i was expecting long lasting quality but no, not even 2 years after purchase the board is unridable. Very very let down by Trusnow and Burton. And after researching a found that this isn't a one off at all, lots of people have had their bases peel off. Simply not good enough for one of the biggest, if not the biggest company in snowboarding.

• Name: 2010 686 Summit Insulated
• Pros:  look nice and trendy, comfortable, warm
• Cons:  inner lining feels a bit loose, palm makes a click noise when i curl fingers,

Experience:   i got my first review for these gloves flagged as spam so i'm writing another one. i ordered these gloves about 2 months ago and wore them in the snow once and just randomly tried them on in my room a few other times. i really like these gloves for many reasons. i have the grey ones and to me they look killer. also the glove doesn't reach up the wrist very much which some people might not like because it's maybe easy to get snow up around your wrist but i think they feel very secure and snug around the wrist. however there are two things i find irritating about these gloves. firstly the inside lining of these gloves don't seem to be attached to the gloves apart form the opening at the wrist which means that when you pull your hands out the gloves, its very easy to pull the lining out as well which could be a real pain to have to fix each finger of the lining back into the appropriate finger of the glove. the second slight issue i have is that the material the palm of the glove is made from(leather maybe??) makes an actual click noise when i curl my fingers which is weird. all in all i really like these gloves and the two small issues i have with them wont stop me from wearing them.

• Name: 2010 Burton Custom
• Pros:  look great, comfortable, forgiving
• Flex:  soft

Experience:   ok this is my second time writing a review for these bindings because i got my first review flagged so here goes. first of all i'd like to express my love for these bindings. i got them for $79.99 about 2 months ago and i think that there terrific value for money. the ones i have are the acid green ones and boy oh boy do they look cool. they're also very comfortable, with both the toe cap feeling very secure and snug as well as the the 3d ankle strap with no bulky crumple zones on the ankle strap. i've read some reviews saying that the buckles can come loose at times but this has never happened to me. i think that the buckles are very easy to crank up to a nice tight, secure fit while still having your gloves on due to the size of the buckles, making them very user friendly. all in all i have no complaints with these bindings that come to mind. they're forgiving and comfortable while still being stylish and responsive. whether or not they'll still be as good when i've progressed more, i guess we'll just have to find out...

• Name: 2010 Oakley A Frame Replacement Lens
• Pros:  crystal clear vision , look cool, don't fog up
• Cons:  very expensive,

Experience:   These lenses look really cool i love them, they are however very expensive. great UV protection, and don't steam up, due to the help from they're double layering. really the reason i love them so much tho is for the looks, no-one can see you're eyes, they're like a mirror, they're great.

• Cons:  a bit tight on the nose ,

Experience:   i really like the look of these goggles, specially with the fire iridium lenses (very expenseive however). the one fault i had tho is that they were kinda tight squeeze on the bridge of my nose, so i tried on the a-frames and got them instead

• Name: 2010 Oakley A Frame
• Pros:  look awesome, incredibly comfortable, don't steam up
• Cons:  the best lenses are expensive,

Experience:   Where to start with the A frames, the looks are amazing, I've wanted these goggles for so long and this year thought i'd just go for it and buy them, i was not disappointed in the slightest. i love them, not only for the looks but they are so comfortable. they fit the curvature of my face and noes perfectly. also the two foamed air vents on at the bottom of the lens as well as the vents at the top allow a constant air flow into the goggles, preventing steam from building up, resulting in no fogging on the inside of the lens. couldn't rate this product high enough, i find them faultless. plus if they're good enough for shaunie boy, they're good enough for me
