(Part 2) Best winter sports accessories according to redditors

looks like he/she is using a break retainer band. You can find them on amazon and such. Here’s a link

Giro Ledge MIPS Snow Helmet Matte Black Mo' Rockin' MD 55.5-59cm https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07GSX3MN7/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_taa_wJmSDbRYE6P7A

What about something like this? It does include MIPS and is only $70.

Not sure they ship to the UK, and not super cheap, but the best UL snowshoes I’ve ever used are NorthernLites. I picked up a second pair on BPL for less than half off as a loner pair, so deals are out there.

NorthernLites

I second the vote for a pair of goggles, but most conditions I use them in is because of high wind and blowing snow - maybe not appropriate for your use.

Goggles on Amazon

You're correct. My fangs saved me twice at <10 mph. Didn't save me twice at >15 mph. Fucked up my shoulder both times. Definitely get shoulder protection. Bought myself this to wear under my shirt: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07GVGL2WV/ref=cm_sw_r_tw_dp_U_x_roABCbZ2YJCSD

I dunno how much you’re trying to spend but I have been please with this kit. Might be overkill tho.

You will die in those jackets. Literally.

Here's my winter setup.....

1. Jeep cap. Keeps the sun out of your eyes and it keeps you warm. You can get them at Ragstock for 5$
   
2. A pair of good winter gloves, and a pair of those cheap stretchy winter gloves. Wear the stretchy winter gloves underneath the thick winter gloves. A good tip on whether a pair of gloves are going to be warm, is if you hold a McDonald's cup of ice water tightly against them. If you can feel the cold cup, then they're no good. If you can't, then stay with them.
   
3. Your legs will get cold too, so buy a pair of base layer pants. Maybe double up. Wear them underneath your regular pants.
   
4. Get a good pair of snowpants to go over your regular pants. Again, McDonald's cup of ice water trick.
   
5. Get a base layer shirt to go underneath your regular shirt.
   
6. Get a good, thick jacket. Do the ice water thing for the jacket too. My personal favorite kind of jacket is an ice fishing jacket.
   
7. Ski goggles. Sounds weird, but your eyes will get cold too.
   
8. [A neoprene mask] (https://www.amazon.com/ZANheadgear-WNFM114H-Black-Neoprene-Half/dp/B000LVZVNE/ref=sr_1_1?keywords=neoprene+mask&qid=1573108443&sr=8-1) . They keep your face warm.
   
9. 2 good pairs of wool socks. Yes, 2. It gets that cold.
   
10. A thick pair of high top skateboard shoes, if you're going to avoid getting winter boots. High top Osiris shoes are good alternatives to winter boots. But you're going to have to get them waterproofed. They're naturally thick.
    
11. Ice cleats.

This is super awesome!!

Don't want to be a stick in the mud, but you should invest in a better helmet for her. As cool as the Frozen helmet is, it is a very low grade helmet that doesn't protect your brain very well in event of an impact.

Get her something that is MIPS certified or EPS 4D.

Tell her great job and keep on crushing it!!

As others said, ski helmets https://www.amazon.com/dp/B06XFVSXR8/ref=cm_sw_r_em_apa_i_MVeKDbHT0KPZP

Like that nice Bern or risk it all cheapo mode on the Retrospec helmet

Even a full cut certified Pro Tec with a liner could work better than the aerodynamic lightweight options.

There are some very good quality goggles available on Amazon for a very low price. I have the Outdoor Master brand with changeable lenses and they were a great buy. If you decide you enjoy skiing i'd recommend buying some. In the meantime, you can prob get a used pair cheaply on ebay or even new ones on Amazon, such as these:

https://www.amazon.com/OutdoorMaster-OTG-Ski-Goggles-Protection/dp/B0714FPSJY/ref=sxin_3_ac_d_pm?ac_md=2-1-QmV0d2VlbiAkMTAgYW5kICQyNQ%3D%3D-ac_d_pm&keywords=outdoormaster+goggles&pd_rd_i=B0714FPSJY&pd_rd_r=3a9e09ce-1b9c-480a-88a2-ef1ebd3af0bf&pd_rd_w=YinOY&pd_rd_wg=e9JWi&pf_rd_p=24d053a8-30a1-4822-a2ff-4d1ab2b984fc&pf_rd_r=D9GT76PC0TAE98PJDG07&psc=1&qid=1573224732

Two questions for the masses:

1. Is this a good deal? I want some new Smith I/Ox and these seem pretty inexpensive. Don't buy them all if they are.
   
   
   
2. I may need a new jacket this year. I don't want to spend more than $200, if possible, and its been a minute since I've bought a new one. I really want something warm enough so I dont have to layer up and ideally is water proof for the wet days.

Good to know!

Thank you very much for your help! So bottom line is basically anything from here with Chromapop?

These are fog-free ski goggles with 100% uv protection

Anyone here wear glasses? I'm thinking of getting this https://www.amazon.ca/JULI-Goggles-Over-Glasses-Snowboard-Goggles/dp/B075HD653N/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1543099997&sr=8-1&keywords=otg+goggles but my prescription glasses are pretty wide, not sure if this would fit.

These are my current alternative option

Hey there,

In the market for new goggles eventually. Wondering if anybody has any experience with the cheaper Amazon goggles, OutdoorMaster Ski Goggles PRO. I would be comparing them to something like Anon M3. Obviously at a fraction of the price one would expect lower quality, but how much of a difference is there?

Cheers!

My brother has a $22 zionor clear pair from amazon and he rides with his glasses on. Can’t guarantee it’ll work for you but here is the link

Zionor Lagopus Ski Snowboard... https://www.amazon.com/dp/B077GR1Z2T?ref=ppx_pop_mob_ap_share

I've use this on my glasses and keeps them from fogging up in the helmet. Assuming you don't have a pinlock shield just use this on the inside of the face shield. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B075PCSPGB
