Impartial Advice

There are very few perfect products out there. We promise to point out all the negatives of anything we try out.

Extensive Research

There is a lot of gear out there and we can’t try everything ( we want to ). We thoroughly research any item we recommend. If we wouldn’t buy it, we won’t recommend it.

I grew up back east in Pennsylvania and learned to ski on a family trip to Killington, Vermont when I was 6. I immediately fell in love with the mountains and have skied across the US and Canada on the east and west coasts and the midwest. I have a Master’s Degree in Mechanical Engineering and Reliability and am a complete gear nerd. Nothing excites me more than trying out something new. These days I reside in Michigan by the Great Lakes and do as much skiing in the winter and paddling and sailing in the summer.

Craig Roberts
Staff Writer | Skiing

Craig grew up in Northern Michigan and spends an unhealthy amount of time these days skiing at Mount Bohemia. He has been known to take more than a trip or 2 out west. His favorite ski destination is Whistler, BC where he goes almost every year. He loves glade skiing and alpine bowls. Craig is a big fan of stand up paddleboarding and camping in the summer. If he can’t be on the mountains he’s out in the woods or on the water.
