VANS AT HOOD
Spada and I just got back from a real quick, but fun trip to Hood to check out the Vans and Pro-Tec snow line up for 2012. Vans invited a bunch of shops from around the country over the last week to preview and get to try out the new gear on the snow, while putting us up in the historic Timberline Lodge at Mt. Hood. Luckily we were in the last group of the week and ended up the ones with all the fresh snow too. I rode the Wiig and John rode a pair of Vans/Holden colab boots. We were both pretty stoked on the fit and feel of the boots during the day we got to ride. The rest of the boot line looks pretty solid for next year too. Pro-Tec has some great colors on the way and some of the lightest helmets I have seen made. The fit was on point too along with plenty of great tech features incorporated to provide better venting and fit for many different brand goggles. Thanks Andy P, and everyone from Vans, Pro-Tec for the preview and the hospitality. Nice to have met and ridden with the other shop guys too from Damage and Francisco up at Stratton. Hopefully now the 2-3 feet that fell over the last couple days there finds its way here somehow.
