Podpro Trailmaps by Tim Yu
Instead of fumbling with oversized trailmaps on the chairlift, Podpro offers free downloadable maps which you can view on your iPhone or iPod.
Offering access to a few dozen resorts in the U.S and Canada like Aspen, Alta, Mammoth and Whistler Blackcomb, you can now plan your descent with a few clicks or zooms. The Podpro service also features RSS feeds of weather conditions ensuring you find your way to fresh tracks. It's a great tool and I look forward to more mountains and maybe even some hiking trailmaps.
Check it out at Podpro.

Zeal Optics Link Spherical Goggles
No matter the conditions, the limited edition Zeal Optics Link Spherical goggles I tried out this past weekend will have you covered. New for 2008, they feature the world's first polarized and photochromatic lens. Polarization allows for increased clarity and depth perception, but the lens also changes the level of opacity depending on the light and time of day, adapting to low light and...

V-Moda Vibe Duo
Not everyone has welcoming outer ears to the standard iPhone earbuds. While we haven't found the perfect replacement, the V-Moda VIBE Duos deliver the best combination of functionality, sound and in-the-ear fit. The VIBE Duos feature the inline mic and button to switch between music and incoming phone calls similar to the Apple iPhone stereo headset. This is a must for smoothly handling unexpected...

Airhole Ninja Masks
Founded by pro snowboarders Kale Stephens and Chris Brown, Airhole Ninja Masks are designed to keep you warm during all your outdoor winter activities, whether snowboarding, skiing or snowshoeing.

Lifebag
For extreme sports types or those who just like to take every precaution, Swiss company Snowpulse developed Lifebag. Like an airbag, it's designed to protect the head and thorax while keeping you afloat during an avalanche. Manually deployed similar to a parachute, the 150-liter shield inflates in less than three seconds and deflates after 90 seconds. Should you get buried, when the bag deflates...

Burton 2009
In between watching 1080s galore at the U.S. Open a couple weeks backs, I had the chance to demo some of Burton's gear due out for the 2009 season. Most noteworthy is their Infinite Channel System (ICS) and Extra Sensory Technology (EST)—an integrated board and binding system. Reducing the binding mount to two screws, thus eliminating the plate from under your boot. Debuted for...
