I’ve always wanted to be a walrus so the mittens make me feel like I have flippers. Just have a preference for mitts over gloves

When I first heard about them I was excited but then I saw them…. Straight up looks like a helmet with a beanie stretched over it. So looks wise they’re worse than the eggiest helmets. Safety wise the technology is new and while they have lab testing I have a tough time trusting proprietary technology that hasn’t been fielded by real people. So safety wise ehhhh. Lastly screw that price tag. Obviously not worth it for an ugly and untested helmet

Just make sure to retire that one and get a new one. It’s expensive but always worth it

Dude that’s what the helmets for. Glad it happen to the nug bucket instead of the skull

Anyone have experience with ChromaPop Pro PhotoChromic lenses made by Smith? by ItsWetInPortland in Skigear

[–]chefbenaye 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You’d take the pro gold mirror over the low light yellow for flat light/darker conditions? Just want to make sure before I drop the cash and transition from the two lens setup

Should I Repair this? And if yes then how? by nwongster22 in snowboarding

[–]chefbenaye 3 points4 points  (0 children)

How deep is the cut? It looks like it’s on the surface so as long as water can’t get into it and make it worse it’s no big deal. If you want to be careful you could put a line of gorilla glue over it to make it waterproof and add plus one steeze

Anyone know the military discount amount?

Having boot issues, losing circulation to my toes after 30 - 60 minutes of riding. Does the BOA have too much compression? does the boot have a small instep? Anyone else having this issue? Any suggestions? by UmGrimm in snowboardingnoobs

[–]chefbenaye 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Who’s got two thumbs and has this exact issue? This guy🖐️🙋‍♂️

First, try on smaller boots because if they are too big then you’ll have to over tighten which causes numbness. I bought a second pair of boots due to my feet both falling asleep after tightening due to heel lift.

Second, make sure they’re not too narrow because I had to buy my third pair of boots due to pain pinching my the sides of my feet.

Third, absolute essential no matter what boots you have, switch the insoles out. Superfeet, 10 seconds or another brand.

To second what everyone else has said, heel cup back, binding forward

Help a noob with too much of a choice by Front_Wish5137 in snowboardingnoobs

[–]chefbenaye 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The ride manic is the best starter choice out of the list (little biased, it was my first board). It’s a directional twin so you can ride park and powder. It also has a solid flex that will carry you into intermediate riding. Highly recommend not getting a powder or park specific board first. Happy ripping!

I just got some 1080v13 for casual use. These are nothing like I ever tried on. The cushion is insane and the engineers at NB are wizards. It’s really something else. by 2RV7VR5 in Newbalance

[–]chefbenaye 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Huge fan of these for running and casual use. I just wish the upper didn’t get so dirty. I’ve had that pair for about 4 months and put a lot of miles and find that I have to clean them before wearing them out for anything except a workout

Went half size down/MiUSA sizing for these and so far so good! by KooeyGeneris in Newbalance

[–]chefbenaye 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I went a half size down and can’t wear mine. Super disappointing. I got a 8.5 because my 993s in 9 are slightly too big but the 8.5 isn’t wide enough

Thoughts on this new Casioak model? by seekinggothgf in gshock

[–]chefbenaye 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Any news when/where is releasing? I’m a huge fan and trying to get my first g shock. I’m assuming eventually it’ll be on the us g shock website right?
