it's all about looking good... the better you look the better you ride. It's like putting stickers on your board makes you go faster..

I would have said... Hey let's just keep the Spyder! Much better if you ask me. Spyder and Arc'Teryx have stayed true. Hardcore awesome gear. No messing around!


I have a couple(before I get put into the consumerism tag please take in mind I skied for 12 years. Boarding now for 5. I am 23 and stopped growing at 18. So I have some gear for awhile now)

My personal taste for quality and warmth and comfort starts and ends with North Face and Mountain hardwear. I don't want to knock the "boarding" companies but far too many times they seem to consider style first and foremost and then comfort and lastly warmth. Maybe I just haven't found the right stuff but this is just my experience.

Jackets:
North Face Summit Series(Black) - System(Liner and Shell)
North Face Summmit Series Extreme Shell(Yellow/Black)
Mountain Hardwear Exposure II - System(Liner and Shell)


For Pants
North Face Freedom Pants Shell(Orange/Black)
North Face Freedom Pants(Black)
Vans Cargo Pants... I think model name is Mylan(Just bought these for this season. Price was right and they fit great. See how they feel on the slopes)


And yes I do have a 1 piece suit from my old ski days

North Face Summit Series Extreme(Yellow/Black/Red)

it is worth noting for my north american cousins, that in eurolandia, SPYDER is the brand for SKIER SNOBS!

you have been warned!

ehhhh

It is good stuff.

I probably look out of place with north face summit series extreme gear on.

Seems like certain brands are for snowboarders and certain are for skiers and if you wear the other one people look at you weird
