Checkers is Easier than Chess


King me! The Lifetime Collective has done it again. This throw back checked flannel brings it all back to me. Nicely lined, The Balsam Jacket delivers warmth while keeping you cool. Quilted softness on the inside with armhole vents to let out some steam. Built by Lifetime to help you blend in with the tree huggers near you.

What Do You Think of Scotty Lago?


Let us know if you think the IOC are dicks for kicking Scotty out of Canada. Maybe they are just jealous cause Scotty can ride and get chicks to kiss his medal. I wish he had her kiss Shaun's Gold. Then what would have become of this?

Nikita Chickita Contest in Brighton

Give it up for the ladies. Nikita has the right ideas.

Strut it in Rome Strut Binders


Ladies, this binding should give you all the power and performance you need to really stick it out there. Pretty solid in the flex department to give you the ability to jib the hill from top to bottom. OMG on the adjustability with so many spots to dial this foot holder to perfection. Womanly specific highbacks to fit your womanly specific legs. Two color patterns to chose from, you know you want to match your ride. Rome SDS lets you Strut from chair lift all the way back to the lift line and every thing in between.

Every Rome Binding comes with a stencil on the box. Tag it up!

It's Friday and It Must Be 5 Oclock Somewhere


You would know what time it is if you had a Nixon watch. We are unloading these time pieces at 40% off. Some of my favs are the Answer watches. Digital style so you know what time it is. And if you still can't tell time with it all spelled out for you, you can ask your mom to set the alarm for 4:20 everyday so you can catch my blog when it first comes out. Or take this watch on a deep sea dive, go for 100 M. Plus, you could hold your breath down to that depth and time how long it takes you to realize your down that deep. The Answer can tell you that.

BTW we are still slangin' Nixon handbags.

Rome SDS Excess Baggage


Going on a trip for spring break? You need a dope piece of luggage to tote your gear in, dude. The Duallie is a huge roller bag that you could probably smuggle a friend in. So many pockets to just throw your crap in at the last minute when your bro calls you up to head to UT for the weekend. Reinforced with some straps so the monkeys at the airport won't explode it on impact. The clincher about this bag is the skate wheels in the power train. No bunk roller blade tires. Get this bag and integrate it with the Escort board bag and you are good to go, anywhere.

Go somewhere where the snow is.

It is Almost Time for Pipe Gloves


Some buddies came by the warehouse the other day to grab some new stuff to go shred Bachelor. They wanted some sweet gloves. I rolled right over to the GBS gloves. Some of the smoothest pipe gloves we got up in this piece. The BME's are flashy and red with the grippiest of gription on the palms. Big pulls to pull the gloves onto any sweaty greased up flesh mitt. All of that plus the homage to Lil Jon and Black Music Entertainment. Grenade gets it.

Get these gloves soon. The blog is out. Everybody wants these.

Ride an Artec Board? Get Artec Bindings.


The Code binders give Artec one more notch on their cred belt. Built for freestyle maneuvering, these bindings give awesome range of flex but give the power where its needed. Hollowed out highbacks make them light and the cushioned baseplate make them like clouds in your landing zone. Fully adjustable in the strap area giving you the comfort fit you need right out the box. Maybe you are a boarder cross guy looking to rotate your highbacks, these puppies will do that too. Go totally Artec.

Artec rockered boards are on there way from Austria!

Are You More Sumo than Ninja?


Airblaster made some long undies for the Sumo in all of us. Basically, take a Ninja Suit and fatten it up. No not thicker, just more in a baggy way. No zippers for pooping out of, but how often do you do that in the woods. Does a snowboarder shit in the woods? However, there is a flap up front to relieve the pressure from those PBR's in the parking lot. With prolific overtones towards Hasbro's popular physicians aptitude game, the Scotty Arnold must still love the game to inspire this print. Two panels on the hood make it suck to your dome like zombies looking for brains. Ride Sumo you'll appreciate the Sumo-ness.

Gearslash.com is throwing stuff on there for 70% off. Hurry!

Solsticesupply.com Set Up of the Week


Put some Rome United Bindings on a GNU Street Series BTX and pimp can't even begin to describe you. To start, BTX for some poppishness in the park while slaying the fresh when the rails are buried. The flex pattern is forgiving, sending you flying through the chop to the huge wind lip slash you spotted from the lift. The United Bindings also give a mid range flex to keep you on your toes when landing that uber tweaked back three method. Pick this combo up, but you better stash it well when you're on break in the lodge, this ride is gonna get noticed.

Keep looking out for next weeks setup.

My Money is in Rome, Wallets


Along with all the other Rome SDS boards and such, we got some accesories that you have to get. Belt buckles, belts to go with them, beanies, and of course wallets. You need a place to put all your fat loot, don't you? This wallet has got one pocket for your "usin'" and one for "savin'". That way you can't just be drinking all night and not have any duckets for the bar man, check the savin' pocket, totally covered. Three different models to go for. All as dope as the rest.

Nothing says "I shop at Solsticesupply.com" like a Rome wallet.

Andreras Wiig Gloves with Grenades on 'Em


You know how many looks you get out of a Grenade hit on your kit, a million! Inspired by Andreas these gloves give you dexterity and warmth right at your finger tips. On the reals! Grab tindy all day with the super grip palm, then go back and wipe up the nose goblins with the smoothed out thumb patch. Two of my favorite things, btw. Grenade also puts some extra material b/t the thumb and the finger you point with. What's up with that? Maybe those of you that ski should check these out, good pole holders.

Pole Holders, funny on so many levels.

Celtek Face Masks, Save Money on Sunscreen


The sun is blazing, bluebird up the ass, and you have nothing that smells like chicks at the beach. Whip out your new face mask by the Clan. Celtek is all over quality while keeping their cred so cred like. By sticking to core products for core shredders, they can focus on what works and what's wack. Combine all this with awesome colors and patterns, sure looks like they are cooking with the recipe. Celtek facemasks will protect your face in every condition possible, so maybe you could wear one side for the blower days and the other for when you're letting your change hang in the sun.(Fully reversible, yo!) Outbreak and Bandito for where ever or whoever you are.

For shred use only!!! Bring the mt. to the street, not the other way around.

Rome killed it with their video for the Transworld Shoot Out Contest. Go check out the rest. Burton had theirs made by kindergartners!!! Forum pretty good but not good enough.
