    Nixon The Rotolog Watch - Mens

    Get In Style Now!
    The Nixon Men's Rotolog Watch is the timepiece you never knew you wanted, but now you can't live without it. Get the only watch inlaid with real walnut, or choose from brightly colored enamel Rotologs if you're not the ‘wood is good' type. The Rotolog watch face spins past a small window to indicate the time. Nixon's latest offering is pure style; the band even has a seamless butterfly closure so the inlay or fill wraps all the way around your wrist. *Available for US shipment only.

    Bottom Line:
    Have the sickest watch on the block with the Nixon Rotolog.

    What you thought:
    I love it! Coming from a watch enthusiast, for 200 bucks this is a great purchase! I own several expensive watches none however attract the attention I get while wearing this watch. It is a little heavy, but very comfortable. Its craftsmanship is excellent and it has a great clasp. - jabone74

    I just personally like the urban organic feel to it. But if you're also looking for something that differentiates itself, this holds it down. Within the first two weeks, I've received a lot of compliments on this watch. - C Dub

    This is a nice watch. I got the watch very fast and I wouldn't mind ordering from Snow Extreme again. - Mosdef312

    Skiing in Greece

    Discover Greek skiing while it's still a secret
    For updates on current conditions, check the Greek Snow Report link following this article.

    Greece is full of secrets, and one of the best is the selection of pristine mountains covered with winter snows. Neglected by many skiers addicted to better-known resorts in Switzerland, France, and Italy, Greece offers low prices and a good variety of slopes and ski centers. Relatively few foreigners ski Greece, and even avid skiers in other nations may be unaware of the Greek alternative. I once mentioned Greece as a possible destination to a British skier who looked at me as if I had just suggested that the permafrost on Mars was just right for cross-country skiing this year.

    But this may be changing. As ski resorts in the Balkans begin to draw more visitors, friendly Greece, already loved as a summertime getaway, is starting to attract more EU visitors and a scattering of Americans in search of inexpensive, unusual skiing. It may not stay a secret for long.

    Skiing in Greece is a bargain compared to most other places, with lift passes costing only a few dollars a day. Recent prices at Mt. Parnassos, the best-developed resort run by the EOT, include a 7-day pass for about $90. Other prices are similarly reasonable.

    The archaeological site of Delphi is near the Mt. Parnassus ski area, and enjoys a second season providing apres ski in a village that takes on even more of a storybook quality when dusted with snow. Nearby Arachova also offers lodgings, shops, and a healthy hand-made sweater industry.

    Just three hours away from Athens, Mt. Parnassus is easily accessible and generally offers skiing from December to March. A dozen lifts and a big spectrum of slopes make this the skiing hotspot in Greece.

    Here are some links to the information you need to start planning a Hellenic skiing holiday.

    Atomic Alibi Snowboard


    If you want one snowboard to ride the entire mountain in any condition, look no further than the Atomic Alibi Freeride Snowboard. Head to the mountain early to hike a ridge before the lifts open—Atomic CNC mills the Alibi's core giving it a high strength-to-weight ratio. It'll be light on your back on the hike up, and it's low swing weight makes popping fast turns in the morning pow a snap. When the pow's been destroyed head to the park and stomp a five over the last table, butter onto a few boxes, then point it down the groomer to the lift barrier jib at the bottom. Atomic made the Alibi Freeride as your one-snowboard quiver. As part of Atomic's elite line, the Alibi Snowboard has a lightening-fast 7200 base and a carbon top sheet which is super lightweight and will maintain its pop for years.

    Bottom Line: The Atomic Alibi is the one quiver snowboard that's made for riding all season in any condition.

    Your Thoughts on this product:
    So I needed a new board, and I have been hearing good stuff about Atomic. So I decided to give the Alibi a shot. This board is one of the sickest rides I have been on. I haven't found anything this stick won't do. It holds an edge better than any board I have ever ridden and has unreal pop. I totally recommend this board to anyone who wants a sick freestyle board that will still hold any speed you put into it. - yellersnow

    Nidecker Pro 800 Snowboard Binding


    A favorite of Nidecker team riders like Mikko Rajkangas, the Pro 800 is a highly responsive all-mountain snowboard binding for boarders who need one setup to do it all. The key to the Pro 800's versatility is Nidecker's Lateral Dampening System. This integrated baseplate allows lateral flex to absorb shocks while it increases edge-to-edge control, giving you excellent turning power. With a hollow highback for reduced weight, the Pro 800 increases your board's performance without excessive bulk.

    Bottom Line: The Pro 800 takes charge on any terrain.

    Your Reviews
    They have only been used once but worked well. They don't have wrist straps which come in handy when you take them off on the chairlift. My hands were still warm when wet, but in below zero weather I would use handwarmers with them. - O.R SNOWLINE MITTS

    Technine Team 1 Snowboard Binding


    Technine team rider Darrell Mathes designed the Men's Team 1 Snowboard Binding, one of the most high-performance binders in Technine's line up. Burly extruded-aluminum ratchets and a 6061-aluminum heel cup are built to last. Customize the Team 1 to your fit and style by dialing in the micro-adjustable toe and heel ramps and the fully adjustable heel cup. The hidden forward-lean adjuster yields a clean highback that won't catch your cuffs. Embroidered suede ankle and toe straps and a tattoo-style rocker rose logo on the highback add some GnR steez your set up. The Team 1 comes with Technine's contoured, molded Baltimore Toe Strap, in addition to a standard toe strap, for maximum control and sensitivity. Accomodates men's boot sizes between US 8.5-12.

    Bottom Line:
    Aggressive snowboarders should get on the Team.

    Great response from these bindings, though they are a little hard to put on. I increased the forward lean by one notch and found that carving was very fluid. I recommend them to everyone. - Anonymous

    Nitro Suprateam Snowboard


    If you need one board to ride hard all over the mountain, look no further than the Nitro Suprateam Snowboard. A favorite of Nitro team riders like Lukas Huffman and Shin Campos, this board can tear it up from tabletop to cliff drop. The Suprateam has carbon and Dyneema-reinforced wood core to give you just the right amount of flex and lots of pop. A progressive sidecut gives you incredible control whether your straightlining a backcountry booter or linking tight turns in the trees.

    Bottom Line: One board for the entire mountain, and the entire mountain for you.

    Your Reviews:
    Fast? You want fast? Well get yourself one of these babies! Skier chaser? No chance. You'll be leaving skiers in your wake! I replaced my Icon Wallpaper for the Suprateam expecting to go slightly backwards in ability, due to the stiffness of this board. No way! Within 10 minutes my confidence and ability had increased 100%. This board attached itself to you like it's a part of your body and almost forces you to pull off tricks you never even tried before. The pop in this board is immense. I was ollieing at least twice, if not three times higher. I was spinning twice as fast. After 10 minutes I was popping 360 ollies I'd never even attempted on my old board. Oh, and did I mention it was fast? Real fast. But it all seems so stable that you don't mind. - JAYMZ

    I did about a months shopping and research before I splurged on a new board. This is what I came up with for the price. I got it in time to take it to Copper for a weekend and it rode it like a pro. The next weekend I took my spring break up to the Tetons. This baby handled rocks, trees, summits, and parks like it was born to blaze through it all. I highly recommend this board for anyone and everyone. Why are you reading this? Buy it now. - weissct

    Great board, ultra fast and stable at high speeds. Awesome shape allows to ride regular and goofy with no problems. Great pop off kickers, haven’t tested it in the park yet but sure it will handle fine. Everyone should be riding a Nitro Suprateam! - phizzle
