Pantalons Potosi de The North Face : le test de Marie-Pier
Pour les fétichistes du vêtement comme moi et mes collègues d'Altitude, la science des multicouches devient un art que nous nous plaisons à commenter. Chaque jour est une bonne excuse pour discuter de notre choix de vêtements par rapport aux conditions extérieures. Vous comprendrez donc que pour moi, un voyage de ski à Salt Lake City est comme une soirée bar ouvert pour un alcoolique : une occasion trop tentante d'exacerber ma passion. Voici donc les modèles que j'apporterai avec moi pour affronter cet incroyable coin de pays.

Exclusivity can be defined as that which cannot be attained by others. The Arc’teryx Ventii is an exclusive ski jacket. Not only is its fit, mobility and weather protection best in class, but very few will be made. Join us for the review.

Le Kapwall Jacket de The North Face a été conçu pour un but très précis: rendre votre journée de glisse agréable peu importe les conditions météorologiques. Louis le teste pour voir si la performance est fidèle à la conception.

Much to my dismay, many readers felt my last article was about liberal drug use after work, but alas they would be wrong. I love new, cool products, and fortunately we at Altitude-sports.com get those types of products throughout the year. I feel, as a selfless gearfreak, the need to share with you my recent favorites.This month, December, that arbinger of real winter and thus snow, and thus skiing, I present to you the following delights.
Arc'teryx, The North Face, Oakley & more: Mark's December High 5
Max Altitude thinks he can pull the limelight onto his hulking shoulders by presenting a knowledgeable, well written article about this season’s winter picks on this infamous blog. He can try, and he may succeed, but… But nothing. I liked his article. However, being the attention-getter I am, I want to steal his thunder. And steal it I will, using the only way I know how- short attentions spans. Focus now, because it will be over before you know it. These are my picks as cool new items in the 2012 fall season.

Arcteryx Men's Rush Jacket and Patagonia Men's Super Alpine Jacket are two awesome snow-sport designed shells. Layer as need be underneath and head for the hills for some serious fun. But because you can't take both with you, we compared the two in a review.

Mon projet cet hiver c'est de commencer le ski de fond. Ça fait quelques temps que je veux m'y mettre, mais je trouve toujours des excuses. Pas cette année. Pour m'aider, autre que d'en parler, je vais aussi dresser une liste de pistes que je veux découvrir.

Naked trees, cold nights, news items on snow tires and an avalanche of squash-based dishes. You know what that smells like? Vertical sliding. Blazing down trails. Skiing and snowboarding. It also smells like innovation. In that spirit, I've scoured many products to make my top 5 new gear for this year. From the Arc'teryx Rush to the Black Diamond Cayenne, these hand picked items will make sure you dominate the slopes with your style and performance.
Arc'teryx, Black Diamond, Oakley, Burton & Icebreaker all make it to our top 5
Après une avalanche de comparaisons de manteaux en duvet pour femme, votre heure est enfin venue, messieurs! Et quoi de mieux que de traiter de deux manteaux de ski, le The North Face Hecktic Down Jacket et le Outdoor Research Stormbound Jacket, pour vous faire rêvez. Fermez les yeux quelques secondes et, je vous le dis, vous vous verrez déjà descendre les pentes enneigées.

First up in my Hard vs. Soft Battle Royale is the Arcteryx Sabre Pant. It is as Hard as it gets! Well that’s not exactly true because Arcteryx makes their SV (severe) line of garments, and this one is not in it. 3 lines in and I already have made my review seem superfluous. Just know they are a hardshell.

VIDA a gravi les Chic-Chocs en Gaspésie cet hiver!
La première journée, on a monté le Champ-de-Mars au Mont Albert. On a eu les conditions idéales : - 5 degrés et un gros soleil! Après avoir atteint le sommet, une partie du groupe est descendue jusqu’en bas pour faire d’autres remontées et une autre partie a fait des jumps.
