ShredTalks Rocker vs Camber Snowboard Camber

Rocker vs. Camber So the argument between Rocker Snowboards and Camber Snowboards. But what exactly is Rocker and Camber? Camber Camber Snowboards are great for all around all mountain snowboarding. Snowboards and Ski's have been made this way for years. Camber boards seem to have more pop, to provide higher ollies. Camber boards also ride very well in rough powder or choppy conditions. →

Burton Snowboard Infidel Binding Review

Burton Snowboard Binding Infidel Wing

Burton Infidel Bindings Review The Burton Infidel Snowboard binding offers a new idea to snowboard bindings. Although we have seen this on Lucas Magoon's snowboard bindings by Technine, it's still hot on the market. The wing tip shoe has been hot, why not a wing tip binding. At first look, it may seem that the wingtip stiffens up the binding to boot →

Oakley Men’s Landic Ski Snowboard Snow Jacket

Oakley Men's Ski Snowboard Jacket Landic

Oakley Landic Ski and Snowboard Jacket Review Stay away from Refrigerators with this jacket.
