I agree with this approach. I got some Oakley Crash pants, which are just a waterproof outer layer. Then you can wear a base layer specific to the outer temperature.

DC Viathan 2 Rolling Bag up on Whiskey right now. Looks pretty cool and for a good price. Anyone have anything like this? This is probably too big to take up to Tahoe from SoCal for a weekend trip, right?

Sierrasnowboard is selling a Palmer Flash LTD 08 for $99.99 originally $359.

They announced the sale on live webcam to their forum members earlier a few hours ago and it's not sold out yet it seems. They said there were 100 in stock.

I got mine already.

Hard to say with only two reviews. From what I have read this is a very soft jib board, pretty much for park use only. Palmer has been around a while and they make middle of the road quality stuff (again, only from what I understand, I have never ridden their stuff). It's tough to beat $99 for any board, no matter the quality.

Palmer kind of blows imo. Then again for $99 a jibby board, if that's what you like to do, it might be worth a try.

It's a good board for a park board I hear. I'm just going to mess around with it really and have a lot of fun. I read that it is really really soft and flexy. If you wanted to get a park board and didn't want to spend too much money, i don't think you can go wrong. Also there is no tax and no s&h. It had been selling for $180 at sierrasnowboard before yesterday and other sites it's in the $200-$250ish range.

An auction on ebay just ended... 4 bids, it ended at 102.50 and they have to pay 30 bucks for shipping and handling. I hope that that board is in good condition... still not a bad deal but the bidders are going to kick themselves if they come across this sierrasnowboard deal.

dangit. My order for the Kavu Ketch-a-can brown bear jacket was canceled. Such a sweet jacket at a low price. It'll be a while till another sweet deal like that comes across on SAC.
