Pro Hoes, Grrrr
One of the few things that really bother me with the way snowboarding is going these days are all the pro hoes. Seriously why do they feel the need to just cling to some pro’s nuts and hope they get a hook up? Are they that horrid of a rider themselves that they can’t earn gear on their own?

Outerwear in Disguise?
Maybe it’s just that I’m some backwoods Colorado mountain girl, but I don’t understand all this new outerwear that looks like they’re trying to disguise your gear as some kind of urban, high fashion outfit. It looks a bit too much like something the bad guys in a cheesy 90’s ski movie would wear. I was just looking at the Holden 07/08 outerwear catalog, and at first I thought I had lost the outerwear section. They have always had an urban/fashion-inspired look, but it seems like this season they took it about 3 steps too far - to the point where you’d look like one of those first-time skiers who clearly doesn’t have any appropriate clothing. Except, guess what? Your inappropriate looking clothing is secretly waterproof!
