After riding the TO BE gear all year last year, I have no reason to buy anything else. I now have 3 sets of gear from them. The look is way different than anything else out there.
POLL: What's everybody using for gear?

• Klim tomahawk jacket (Didn't like the idea of spending $300 on a jacket at first, but now I'll tell you it's worth every cent)
• Tekvest freestyle
• Mechanix gloves, have a few other pairs as well
• Gore-tex snowboarding pants I got for 90% off last year
• Kamik snow boots, probably replace with HMK or Klim next year
• HJC ACX3 crash lid, 509 goggles
• Tracker DTS beacon
• BCA Tour shovel/probe
• VS/Yaesu FT60 5W VHF/UHF radio
• Garmin GPS12 (old and reliable ftw)
Still got my eye out for a new pack... something that isn't as big as my daily backpack (Really don't need space for books and a computer while sledding), and one other thing... what was it... Oh yes, a sled.

I bought a castle coat 4 years ago and I haven't had one problem with me and it keeps me warm. I bought Castle pants last year and like them also. This year I bought castle boots and they have worked good for my first trip. I have tna gloves and love them. I go with castle instead of Kilm because I don't have the coin to drop on kilm.
Nothing but Klim 4 me. Switched to FXR for one season a couple years ago, never will do that again...............
Walmart gloves
Walmart boots
Modular helmet
and a $100 speedo.

I have burton pants, 2 jackets-1 northface and1 high gear, klim boots and gloves. I am always dry.
On a side note, I was up at the local sleding spot today(not sleding unfortantly) and Klim was everywere. Everywere I looked! They need to come out with a bunch of different colors and paterns so there is more selection and everyone doesnt look the same. They can keep the same jackets and bibs/pants, just give more color/fabric patern selection.

I've had three layers of Klim gear since the turn of the century. I've only worn two layers most rides....mid-layer during only the coldest condition. My Klim jacket is still in FINE condition, but I'm a girl and I got bored with it after all this time. SO.......I bought a Scott jacket last spring and a TOBE jacket this fall. Now I have options!!
I wear Klim Powdercross gloves, RU Outside boots, HJC helmet, Oakley and Scott goggles and I am sportin' a new HMK backpack. I've owned a BCA Stash that last couple of years. I've also added UnderArmour to my base layer options.
Looks like we might be getting enough snow so that I can FINALLY get this gear out on the mountain!!! YEAH!
