RETURN OF THE HAZMAT

Like everyone else at the beginning of the year I was flat broke and had to wait 5 weeks until the next pay packet so, what do you do? Ebay of course. Sold a load of gear! Would I miss it, yes I would!!!


One of the items I sold was a yellow hazmat suit, I loved it but, it went to a good home...... to a fellow 'gear head'. Well today I got  NEW ONE!!!! Orange Resprex suit, rubber inside, large and with fitter boot and gloves. Oh and the other thing......BRAND NEW!!! Well sort of, should I say never used until today ;-)

SNOWBOARDS AND GEAR

Another of my gear-head kinks is Snowboarding. This if for all the guys who enjoy the slopes and also the gear!

I've been Snowboarding for the past 18 months since we had a local  indoor, real snow venue open up a few minutes drive from home.

I'd like to take this time and say I have always been into this gear including ski gear for a long time but, with the opening of my local venue its become a place where I can wear gear and be a part of the action.



 I cannot comment myself what other guys who go to the indoor slope think but, I can bet that well over 50% of the other lads that go have some sort of kink into the gear.  This is only a sample of what I wear on the slopes. I do however have one more kink with snowboarding! I would love to snowboard in the open in a wetsuit. We will see if this happens in the future PMSL.
