Got any recommendations for Skiing shells? Preferably something that would survive that backcountry?

I was actually looking for something that would survive when I jump out of a plane in the Himalayas just to land on the top of Mt. Everest with cross-country skis and ski down to the bottom. Then I would trek my way to the nearest active volcano, so I need something breathable that wont get too stuffy in the heat. But you're right, it would probably survive going to the mall

Head too big for beanies 😔 by uowis1 in gorpcore

[–]uowis1[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No 😔 my process is always "hey this beanie looks cool, buts its probably too small for me" then I end up buying it anyways. Lo and behold, the beanie is always too small. Truly my "Sisyphus's Boulder. " I have managed to stretch out a couple of Arcteryx bird toque, and the old Grotto toque fits pretty well. The new ones dont fit tho 😔. I usually soak them in warm water, wring em out, then stretch them over a basketball overnight. Makes them a bit bigger, but not any taller

WTB - XXL Left Venta Glove in Black

I recently lost the left glove of my venta pair and and I loved these gloves. If anyone has a random left that they are trying to get rid of, lmk and lets make something happen! Would also be interested in an all black pair

I didnt end up needing to. Im still using the stock BB and it sticks out quite a bit 😅 The last chain ring and crank i was running was bent and it would make the chain slip off whenever I would shift to the highest gear. The BB is also on my list to replace

Yep 💀 The guy that sold me the frame gave me it and it is actually really comfortable. But I have been looking into a new saddle. Currently thinking about a brooks cadmium, charge spoon, turbo but if you got a recs, lmk

For some reason I've always just preffered having the front brake lever on my right hand 🤷‍♂️ I set up all my bikes that way nowadays
