Most of freeskiers will to decorate their helmets with stickers of their favourites brands, but Gabriel Garcia Fernandez went a step beyond and took his own art to his helmet. Armed with a brush and full of patience, he decorated his helmet with this amazing result.
He proceed the following way:
First of all, he drew the picture with a propelling pencil on the helmet. For those of you who haven’t got so much spare time may help themselves with a template.
To apply the paint- plastic paint- and fill up the drawing, he used a regular brush. Gabi told us that he had to apply more than one layer to obtain the result he was looking for.
To continue with, he varnished the design, and that way protects it from knocks and avoids it being ruined.
We liked very much this idea of customize your helmets, and we encourage you to take the initiative and try it yourselves.
To end up with, we thank Xski and ATS for letting us know this and give a 10 to Gabi.

Today we dedicate the article to all of us that have discovered the snowboard bags with wheels.
Almost all have compartments for boots, but the inside is always large and usually a lot more fits in.
These are the ones we liked most :
Dakine Girls Low Roller
Dakine offers it’s girls a roller bag with Scottish designs. It weighs only 3kg and is made of polyester.
In another pattern, also from the girls section.
We liked so much the Sheath Plaid of Joy that even without rollers we have decided to include in the selection.
DC Tamo
Acid colors, Tamo rules!
Burton Wheelie Board Case Tokio Lights
Lightweight, wheeled, wide, incredible graphics … Need more?
Amplid Boardbag Condominium
For traveling and not leaving nothing at home. 1.74 and super lightweight. Many boards fit in.
Incredible graphics!
New article on the freestyle boots we have liked most this season.
The two buckles system allows incredible adjustment, it’s flexible tongue can open a lot to make it easier to put on, has a Flex 8, we liked the simplicity of its design and the contrast of dark brown with gold.
The choice of famous Tanner Hall, a boot of 3 hooks designed for park but hard enough to defend themselves in all-terrain thanks to it’s two interchangeable tongues, medium-hard and soft.
This year they have chosen the Rastafarian colors, which t-hall identifies with.
Although not much is known about the technical aspects of the next nordica freestyle boot, it certainly has a astonishing design and deserved a mention in the article
The already known SPK returns this year in red and black colors, continue with flex 110.
Highly recommended for its thremodeformable system, which will fully adapt the boot to your foot, which will enjoy all the padding and protections that leads to soft, soft landings.
A boot completely park orientated, comes with a medium flex tab 6. One advantage of this boot is the possibility of exchanging tongues and the boots are completely thremodeformables. Very cool colors!
Bota specified for all terrain women, they have apadapted the boot to female anatomy, it’s interchangeable flex 8 tongue will be the queen inside and outside the track.
elegant graphics, floral motives in black and gold.
Let’s take this new entry to talk about backcountry skiing and snowboarding, for those days of loads of powder outside the limits of the station when you look for the best lines.
A few jackets of classic design but notable for their lightness and tightness.
For the most adventurous girls.
The color may look very serious but pink heat-sealed zippers give the point
15000 Tissue water columns and transpiration 15000gr keeps you dry and cool while the Thinsulate ™ lining in its inner layer keeps you warm it before reaching the shelter!
Norrøna Lofoten Jacket.
Norrøna surprises us with this lightweight freeride jacket (930gr), its fabric Gore-Tex ® 28000 mm water haze makes it virtually impossible for water to get through.
We have chosen the yellow lemon color so we are seen right across the mountain!
Haglöfs Couloir Jacket.
Jacket in two parts, a fleece for warmth and a soft shell to protect against wind and snow.
Its 28,000 columns of water and lightweight (875 grams) makes it ideal for access to those faces of the mountain least explored.
Norrøna lofoten one-piece
We saved the best for the end, the entire Norrøna suit has left us speechless, it is thought for diving in the deepest powder without getting even a bit wet! Available in various colors, but we liked the purple and green one.
Without leaving our skiers friends abandoned, we will keep on talking about snowboard.
We will now see the latest updates of snow brands that we have found interesting.
We will start with the well-known brand Burton, who has developed this season a pair of park boots in purple with geometric texture. To avoid clashing with the colorfulness of the park.
Also from Burton, we liked the black Burton Heil. Which contrast the appearance of strong and firm, with quilted texture.
For our girls we liked the Burton Axel in the printed version.
There are also galactic and bikers versions. Super light to give good jumps.
From Rome we have chosen the Folsom, Bjorn Leines model. We’ve chosen them white because the details are in a powerful pistachio color.
K2 Darko
The K2 Darko have personality. They appear as versatile boots for both powder in the early hours as for going to the park when the snow is heavy.
Purple, turquoise, orange … Darko rocks!
Your comments encourage us, keep making them!
This season, the powerful and growing Norwegian snowboard brand Bataleon, surprises us with a small but incredible range of boards All mountain / Freeride.
Leaving aside the technical breakthroughs of the boards (as the Triple Base Technology, which will be discussed later in this blog), the elegant Nordic aesthetic is 100% perfect.
Powerful and clear graphics for the most elegant riders.
BATALEON ENEMY +++
Enemy is the lightest in its class, created for All Mountain / Freestyle. A machine for “kickers” in “backcountry” and for riping nonstop.
The graphics leave quite clear what this board is about; light and dynamic.
BATALEON UNDISPUTED
Undisputed is an incredible freeride machine, a magic carpet for powder snow, which will also respond in the most complicated crust and ice slopes.
The aesthetics of its labyrinthine graphics leaves no one indifferent. Less is more.
BATALEON OMI
Omni is Powdertrends favorite, the most All Mountain of the collection offers an amazing versatility, from freestyle to freeride without complaints.
The graphics have left us speechless, geometric designs calculated at millimeter with a combination of fascinating colors.
LClean and attractive, omni is the queen of style in Batalleon All Mountain collection.
Soon we will have more of Bataleon.
This year the deep purple strikes again!
We’ve been flipping through the latest purple jackets this season, and this has been what we´ve liked most.
Orage Baldwin
The first one is Phil Casabon´s personal choice, only for park-rats.
Saga anomie jacket
The second is the well-known brand underground Saga, where you do not need to go and buy the 3xl to go baggy because they make extra large sizes and cuts.
Check out the saga blog and scroll until you find the perfect pant/jacket combo!
Tim Durtschi wearing the Saga drank
The third one is for girls, it has a curious silk-screened, in addition to all the details salomon jackets carry. Including a pocket for mobile, for googles.etc
With a brighter tone we have the Special Blend Signature, the most searched by snowboarders
New Ski & Snowboard Goggles Vol. II
Spy Soldier, Vanular Signature.
The “Bling ,Bling” Pro model by corey Vanular, so legit.
