if you buy grenade gloves, that qualifies you to put that ultra cool grenade sticker on your douche mobile

I went to sports chalet for all my gear. They weren't that bad on price, but if you want good stuff I would check anyplace that has snowboard equipment.

you can get a 10% off with your costco card at sports basement or 15% off if you look in the Outdoor magazine that they have in the lounge.

Since you are in Danville / Alamo you can go to Any Mountain in Concord, or Sports Chalet in Pleasanton.

i got some gloves from REI a while back. they are REi brand or something cuz they say REI on them.

But they are the best snowboarding gloves ever.

They stay warm and are hella comfortable.

I have never had them get wet on the inside, and i do spend a lot of time picking myself up.

the only thing i dont liek abotu them is they have this little squeegy thing built into the index finger and its cool for wiping water/snow off your goggles

but when i go to wipe my nose i always scrape my nose with it. and i do it every time. and it ****ing hurts

my last gloves has a special material on the index for nose wiping and i got into the habit and just cant get out of it.
