Comment this Post!Minimal Goggles
Today’s post won’t be so colourful than others. Some of us prefer simple complements that don’t catch so much attention.
We researched the most discreet goggles of the season. But, be aware! a good pair of goggles, even though they may be discreet, can offer you an elegance and distinguish look.
Electric EG2
These EG2 from Electric, in metallic silver.
Von Zipper Chakra
On black gloss, simple lines and very elegant.
Smith Scope Pro
These ones are also black, just as simple and elegant as the previous ones.
Spy Brias Black Night
Spy’s version.
Anon Solace
Last but not least, Anon’s version
How do your goggles look like? Discreet or outstanding?
More ski graphics 2010
Once more, we have spent some time looking for the most shocking and original ski graphics, those that people keep on staring during the chair lift line. Those that make us ski looking downwards. Those that we keep in our rooms as part of its decoration during all of the year.
This has been the result.
Atomic Bent Chetler. freestyle-backcountry.
Atomic Bent Chetler freestyle-backcountry
Atomic tries this year with a Japanese-urban inspiration, and surprise us with the Bent Chetler as the result.
This promodel is clearly the best expression of their rider Chris Benchetler, who continues innovating and turning the Backcountry on his own snow park. Booters, pillows, tree taps…this ski can handle with everything.
Its 123mm underfoot , will help you stomp an out of bounds booter as well as not to be sketchy on the landing thanks to the roker technology.
Line Chronic Cryptonite
Line Chronic Cryptonite
Line continues with his crow, but this time even more aggressive, and illustrated by Dan Mumford.
This new design it’s based on the original Chronic, but counts with an even wider waist (93mm), continuing with line’s idea of wide park skis.
They are even harder and resistant than the rest of skis that compose the range, providing and extra stability and avoiding them getting bent when you stomp the illest jumps.
Armada T-Hall
This is Tanner Hall’s option for this year. The lion of Judah, HaileSelassie I…very Tanner , always with his reggae style.
This year the come a bit harder: perfect to imitate our pipe idol.
4Frnt Click
The 80’s style is introduced with this 4Frnt Click for girls. Paint, markers and full of colour.
K2 Missy
To end up with, the innocent touch come by the hand of these initiation skis K2 Missy for girls but, be careful, not because they are younger the come to be less rockers. Hannah Montana and freeski haven’t got to be incompatible.
Which ones do you prefer? Comment at Powder Trends!

Hand Made Tall Tees
We are going to do a small tutorial about how to do your own tall tees.
As you might already know, it’s quiet complicated to find these kind of trendy t-shirts in Spain, and even more difficult for one of our size with a picture we like.
The materials we are going to need are:
- Two t-shirts
- Scissors
- Needle, thread…etc
The idea is to sacrifice a regular t-shirt and cut it into pieces to obtain a shirttail that we will sow to another t-shirt (which will be the tall tee).
The first thing we are going to do is divide the t-shirt we are going to sacrifice into 4 sections.
We can get rid of the first section.
The second and third sections must have the same length and width; they have to be the same. These are the parts we are going to use as shirttails.
The sleeves compose the fourth part.
Once we have cut the t-shirt, we can sow the third part or section to another t-shirt to increase its length. (the second section may be used to do another tall tee by sowing it to another t-shirt).
To end up with, we sow the fourth part to the sleeves of the tall tee we are making and it will be ready!
Following this method, we’ll obtain two tall tees for every three normal t-shirts we use on the manufacture. One of them with double sleeves bi-colour and the other one with normal sleeves.
As you can see, the result it’s pretty amazing: now you are ready to customize your own tall tees!
We must thank Mario Alvarez de Beleña – aka Manek – who made possible this article by providing us with the method and photographs.

Neff
Today we will talk about Neff, the brand of Shaun Neff. It comes directly from Downtown California, at the hands of pros like Travis Kennedy or Sladics Chanelle.
They define themselves as “a gumball machine spitting out endless flavors for the World to eat.”
They have beanies, bandanas, shirts and jackets, but what we liked were their beanies. Furthermore, most are designed to fit under the helmet.
Neff Wacky
In several color combinations, this is just one of them.
Neff Cheetah
The glamorous and wild cheetahs in the same beanie.
Neff Butch
With typical Highland inspiration
And we continue with some for girls:
Neff Gato
Only suitable for daring girls. Moar!
Neff Melanie
Soft, delicate and sweet

Gloves, Gloves, Gloves! (II)
We continue with more gloves that have attract our attention.
Poc Bug Glove
The guys from Poc update each season, doing a much more eye-catching range than the past ones. More over, they make accessories which will easily combine with your goggles and helmet.
Empire Black&White Gloves
Mythical park-rats gloves, the Empire are known by most of us. Thin, comfortable and fits like a glove. (haha)
They also count with grip on the palm section, so you wont lose the ski lift at the park!
Dakine Cobra Glove
Dakine has made a pair of gloves on easy riders inspiration: the leather, the zips, etc… a classic glove design with an outstanding colour.
Dakine Charger Glove
We bet for whites and blacks combined with purple, mixing them with spiral forms as if they were finger prints.
As we have come observing in dakine, the high range gloves continue being of leather.
Burton Pipe Glove Bright White
We call them Burton Bling, white and gold.
Switch Bullet Glove
The switch designs are simple and juvenile, very trendy and know in every Europe parks.
The combine very good with blue jackets or trousers.
Which ones do you dare with? O.. don’t you dare with anyone?
Tell us what you think!
