I had a very nice pair of Dakine gloves, but I managed to tear into the palm with the edge of my board after the third day. The lining is still intact, so they’re still useful, but I’m thinking about buying a new pair next year and don’t want to run into the same issue.

Essential Travel Tips For Canada’s Winter Olympics
Posted: Apr 05, 2010 |Comments: 0
|
]]>
The Canada Winter Olympics in 2010 is promising to be quite an event. It seems every year that opening ceremonies get bigger, brighter and more spectacular; world records are broken in a more amazing fashion, and crowds get bigger. However, there is also heightened awareness of security every year, especially in the last decade. If you’re travelling to Canada’s Winter Olympics, we give you some of the inside info on travel insurance.
All About the Canada Winter Olympics
The Olympic Cauldron will be lit in Vancouver on February 12, 2010, marking the official start of the games. All of the regular Winter Olympic sports are on the agenda: ice hockey, alpine and cross-country skiing, ski jumping, snowboarding and figure and speed skating will be heavily attended. There are also a couple of relatively new sports included for this set of games, like Skeleton and Luge.
The Olympics in Vancouver are being held in one of the most picturesque locations ever seen in a host city. That location, however, is also causing a lot of speculation about whether conditions will be suitable for snow-based and other outdoor events. The Opening Ceremony, and traditionally high demand events like medal rounds in figure skating and ice hockey have been booked solid for months.
Potential Security Issues
The profile of the Winter Olympics makes it a target for potential terrorist or anarchist demonstrations, as well as those of other special interest groups. The torch relay, which began on the 30th of October last year (yes, that is a massive run!), has already been marred by minor demonstrations. However, these certainly were not on the scale of Beijing’s Olympics and the Tibet issue, which went off relatively undisturbed.
Do look out for demonstrations, which can quickly turn violent with the help of crowd mentality. There will be around 6,000 security personnel on hand in the Olympic vicinity to keep eventgoers safe. Don’t skimp on the travel insurance, however – an upgrade often costs less than you think it would, and is a sensible precaution in the current international climate.
Potential Logistical Issues
We already mentioned that the opening ceremony and high demand events have been booked solid for some time. If you have made any travel plans on the basis of attending these particular events, you may want to rethink them. Logistics-related travel insurance claims can only be paid if outside circumstances prevent you from fulfilling your hotel booking (or other bookings), not because of failure to plan ahead.
You’ll also want to make sure that your online travel insurance policy, or your car rental insurance policy, covers everybody who will be driving your rental car. After Manhattan, Vancouver has the highest population density in North America – so you can imagine the traffic around the Olympics time!
Recommended Level of Travel Insurance
Given the issues that travelers might encounter at the Vancouver Olympic Games, we’d recommend looking for the following in an online travel insurance policy:
Full medical travel insurance coverage – the risk of catching an illness in cold conditions, surrounded thousands of other people, is high
Logistical travel insurance coverage – the fact that accommodation is at a premium in and around the Games venues (and in the entire city!) means that you could be up for considerable extra costs if you have a logistical problem.
The highest level of travel insurance cover, which offers catastrophe cover, hijack benefit, search and rescue expenses, mugging benefit and resumption of trip benefits may not be needed here … however, it only costs a little extra and could add to your peace of mind.

Why Travel Insurance is so important?
Life is full of surprises! Some surprises are good! They really elevate you while others might turn you down. It is the same while you are traveling. Many of the good events will keep you going but the slightest of negative events can turn your trip into worthless trip and you can end up being in a financial mess.

Capture the Perfect Snowboarding Moment Using These Tips

Another growing aspect of snowboarding is photography. Yes! Snowboarding pictures are part of the sport’s culture. Taking snowboard riders at their best form has created a great interest for photographers. Now if you are newly venturing into this quest, there are three things that you should consider.
Extreme Weather Condition
You should know how to handle your camera in cold conditions. The primary problem that you will encounter with your camera is cold temperature. Batteries most often do not work in very cold conditions. It may also affect the camera’s shutter and your film.
To keep your camera and batteries warm when dealing with cold weather, keep them inside the parka and close to your body. Take them out only when you are prepared to shoot. However, it will be a problem if you have a huge camera. But if you are only taking pictures for souvenir, then a smaller camera will do. Meanwhile, if you are taking professional pictures, then get the best camera you can afford and try to keep it as warm as you can.
Timing and Sharp Focus
When taking a snowboarding picture, you want to capture the agility of the rider and the illusion of speed. To capture that moment, you need great timing and very sharp focus. You have to get yourself in the right position and be in the right location to have a clear visual of the subject and to have a good chance of photographing the moment. However, it will still be very difficult to take a shot without coordinating with the snowboarder. So instead of waiting for the right time, plan the right time.
Have an agreement with the snowboarder about simple signals, location, and the time you will need to set up for the winning shot. Once you have this arranged, agree on what kind of poses you are looking for. It is important to communicate to the subject what you want to capture on film. Before choosing a location, try to survey whether there is enough room for you to move and cover. Meanwhile, when giving signals, it is better to use verbal signs but if that is not possible try to have clear non-verbal signals that both you and the snowboarder will understand.
Pay also special attention on your camera. You have to be adept in using your camera to avoid losing a split second chance of shooting a great snowboarding photo. Run a few shots to check if everything is working. Most importantly check the film. You don’t want to put all your efforts in vain when you find out that your film has been exposed or you simply forgot to bring enough of them.
Film Exposure
Another terrible problem that you might encounter when taking pictures is film exposure. Most often than not, your camera is dealing with too much light. The snow is bright. The sky is bright. Both these elements appear nicely on your film but when you take a picture of your subject, he becomes a dark silhouette. To remedy this problem, you can use a light filter to control the light of the background as well as the subject. This will place light on where you want it to be. You should also you fill flash, this way you will avoid having dark silhouettes on your subject.
You may also encounter having bluish colored pictures especially when you are in a high altitude and surrounded with snow. A good solution to these problems is using a UV filter. It will lessen the blue light. This is very useful when you are taking snowboarding pictures at higher altitudes.
Considering these factors will help you come up with great snowboarding photos. Treat your camera as an extension of yourself by protecting it from cold, so that like your body it can function well. Plan the things that you need to do to capture the moment that you want. Lastly, invest on your camera. Add devices that will help you immortalize the perfect moment on your film.

Snowboard boxes are just another part that is combined into the snowboarding parks that permit the snowboarders to perform tricks and stunts and can make the day more fun and exciting for both the snowboarder and the fans who are watching. They’re similar to a rail system and provide another kind of platform that the snowboarder can jump onto, slide down and around and do flips and flops off.

Snowboard boxes are wider than the everyday rail system, but that just implies there is more of a surface for you to be hurt on in the event of an accident. Learn the rails before you go to the boxes and do not forget to practice safety methodologies and measures. That includes wearing a helmet at every point. While playing on the features that a board park offers to its riders, such as the rails, boxes and half pipe, there is a great likelihood that you could get hurt and shielding yourself by wearing a helmet and by taking other safety cares is mandatory.
Board boxes are often even wider than the actual board that you are riding. Some may only stand a foot off of the ground, while others can be taller. Always start out on the more basic and faster models of the boxes until you can get snug. Watch other boarders who’ve got a high comfort level. You can gain important information by watching them. You can definitely pick up some really handy tips and tricks by watching someone else. By even watching the bad stuff, you can discover what the most effective way to destroy is to keep you from getting hurt.
You can build your own box system at home so that you can practice. It doesn’t need to be a monster of a project, but simply a easy system that can help to get you started. Practice does make perfect and what simpler way to learn than at the comfort of your house. You’ll find instructions across the internet that may tell you step by step how to build your own personal snowboard box system with very few materials and at a low cost.
The rails and boxes can add a high level of fun and competition to your snowboarding action. Don’t be afraid to try them out, but always recall that they are dangerous and you need to always practice your safety techniques and wear your safety apparatus.

Camelback Ski Resort Rental Alternatives – Tips For Skiers on a Budget
Posted: Oct 27, 2009 |
]]>
Are you worried about facing the long rental lines at Camelback Ski Resort in the Poconos, PA? Shorten the time it takes to get on the lift by checking out some local Camelback ski rental alternatives. In many cases, you can find cheaper rental prices and nonexistent lines. Here are some local ski and snowboard rental options. Be sure to plan ahead, though – you don’t want to miss any slope time because you forgot your poles or boots.
Great prices on ski and snowboard rentals in the Poconos are available at Mike N Matt’s Snowboard Shop (Route 115, Blakeslee, PA). You’ll find a much wider selection of snowboard rentals than those available on Camelback and at better prices. Their location close to Camelback Ski Resort is a plus, as are the prices – ski rentals for $12 and snowboard rentals for $18. There’s a $150 refundable deposit required. If you’re looking for a place to purchase ski and snowboard gear, skis, boots, poles, and snowboards are available to buy, too.
Starting Gate Rentals and Repair (Bushkill, PA) also has a ski and snowboard rental area for adults and kids. If you hit this local shop, you’ll find all shapes of skis and comfortable Dalbello boots for a great day on the mountain. Staying at Camelback Ski Resort a few days or more? This shop offers longer-term rentals for reduced rates. Need a tune or repair? The repair shop features high tech ski and snowboard tuning using the Grind Rite Machine, which will help you achieve sharp edges and a smooth gliding base.
Pocono Ski Rentals Inc. (located at RR #1 Box 14, Tannersville, PA) is the closest option for non-site rentals; call the shop before heading over for rates and availability.
Of course, renting from Camelback Ski area itself is also an option. Camelback ski resort exclusively offers Salomon rental equipment for kids and adults. For all-day rental, you’ll pay $33 for adults and $30 for kids. For those who want more advanced performance, high-performance rentals are $40 per day. And get a jump on the lines with this new twist for 2009-2010 – skiers and snowboarders can rent items online and go directly to pick up, which can get you on the slope faster.
Come on over to experience Poconos skiing, scenery, and snowboarding for yourself. For all your Poconos PA skiing needs and tips on cheap hotels in the Poconos area, our Camelback Ski site is there to serve you.
Visit http://camelbackmountainskier.com to find the best lodging in the Poconos. We’re always looking for Camelback deals and budget bargains!

Snowboard Waxing Tips
Posted: Sep 02, 2010 | Views: 114 |
]]>
Preparation is the key to waxing your snowboard in a timely fashion. So, before you can begin to wax your board, you first need to get all of your tools together. You can start by getting a work bench to place your board on. Alternatively, you can use two crates and place your board between them.
When waxing your snowboard, most of your effort we be directed towards scraping the excess wax from the board. Because of this, you need to make sure that the work area is at a comfortable height for you. Tools you will need include a scraper for getting rid of excess wax on the board, an iron to melt the wax, abrasive pads for getting rid of old wax and dirt, and polishing pads for smoothing out the wax and giving it a nice sheen. It also doesn’t hurt to have a drop cloth to make clean up of the old wax easier.
And, of course, you will require wax. Snowboard wax has different formulations depending on where it is to be use. Basically they are formulated for warm weather, cold weather, and all purpose weather. Choose the wax that most reflects the season and the temperatures in the area in which you will be snowboarding.
Before purchasing your snowboard wax, read the instructions on the package. It should show the temperatures for which the wax is formulated. If it doesn’t, however, the store personnel can help you in choosing the correct wax for your area. Unless you are a professional or the temperatures in your area are extreme in either direction, you will probably end up using the all-season snowboard wax.
Spread the wax over your snowboard. Once this is done, you will need to smooth it out with your iron. The aim is to make sure that the wax seeps into all of the tiny crevices in the base. Different waxes require different temperature settings. Make sure that your temperature setting is appropriate for the wax that you are using.
The last thing that you want to do is to burn your snowboard. One way of protecting it from the heat is to apply the wax to the entire surface of the board. It is important that you keep the iron continually moving and don’t let it stay in place for too long. Think of it as ironing your clothes.
When you are done ironing, don’t start scraping the wax right away. Let the wax set and harden a little bit, and then start your scraping. Depending on the wax and the temperature in your shop, you probably won’t have to wait more than about five to ten minutes.
Watch the amount of heat you apply to the wax on the board carefully. If it begins to smoke, your iron it too hot. First of all, it means that the chemicals in the wax are starting to separate. When this happens, wax is no longer really wax. It has separated into into its various components and no longer performs the function that wax will.
A second reason for not allowing your wax to smoke is that it can destroy your base to the extent that it is no longer capable of accepting new wax. So watch your iron temperatures carefully and avoid ruining your wax job.

Why You Should Wax Your Snowboard
When you buy a new snowboard, it will probably come pre-waxed. But, as you might expect, the wax used won’t be of very high quality.
