my new ones have a seasons pass thingy doo-hickey.....siiiick.

and they have magnetic pockets.......siiiiiick.

No I dont work for Sombrio, but hey I needed you all to know.


and oh yeah, the DB RaceFace knee pads are my other favourite thing right now.......

My ReignX is super fun as well, shameless plugs I know, but maybe if everyone typed in their 3 fave new things that would even the score abit??

I got a couple pair of the Pinners. I like the stretchy material and not overly baggy fit. Plus they are highly water resistant..so far.

Word to that!! I actually have a pair of convertible Answer motocross pants that have the legs that zip off below the knees. Heavyweight cordura but breathes insanely well, and when using them as shorts, ventilation isn't much of an issue anyway....

I wear a Sombrio Disciple 3/4 sleeve jersey, though. Best jersey I own.

^ I hear you on that one.... I have a pair of Sombrio Pants/Shorts where the legs zip off... and they are still going strong.

Super heavy duty while staying flexible.

hmm the girls stuff isn't posted on the updated site but I saw all the 2007 gear during the beer/sale thingee a while back....looked stylee for sure - will have to get ahold of the newer stuff to put to the test - already have Sombrio shorts and jerseys and me likes but I still think the boys stuff is designed WAY better.

as for my new 3 fave things?

That sounds awesome! Not to mention I don't have a vest at the moment...hmm...:idea:

My 3 Favourite things? Very very tough.

iPod - Not because it is an iPod, but simply because it has so much good music on it, a great way to relax.
Banshee Chaparral - A bike that can go anywhere, and take anything I can throw at it.
Nikon D70 - Not actually mine, but I can use it almost as much as I want and while it isn't current or top of the line, it is quite capable and lets me capture so many beautiful scenes and moments.

I'm starting to put some trail time on my Pike, and Motion Control is awesome! I guess coming off an 02 or 03 DJII anything would seem awesome, but I'm def feeling the Pike.

I'm also enjoying the new-to-me metal driver I've started using on the golf course. I don't golf much, but it's my first time using a metal, and I like it!

I also like how the RF North Shore ISIS cranks I bought years ago are still going strong on my minuteman. Good product.

My 3 fav new things.
1) Black Market Riot, I love the geo on this bike for pretty much everything.
2) Etnies Bastien shoes, I've always loved etnies shoes.
3) Canon rebelXT, having lots of fun with this.

Has anyone here tried Royal Racing? I'm considering purchasing a jersey from them...

boohoo 100 bucks for a helmet are you kidding me?? Its your head. Plus 5 yrs ago you couldnt buy a good helmet for under 200 bucks, its funny now you can buy a BELL FF for 100 bucks, and thats what Ced, and Wade ride in.

05-12-2007, 01:27 PM
...and Wade ride in.

what is he up to? Since he no longer appears on aregular basis in the "press"...just curious. i know he is still ripping, but for me vids such as Todd's series and the like (and of course this website) are the number one info source.

I knew I was going to get crapped on for that comment, but thats the thing, an all mountain helmet or a full face for a c-note, plus I already have my skate style bucket

whatevs just think that its a small price to pay for comfort and safety..

be haapy that you can buy a sweet all mntn lid and a full face for 30% less than we used to pay for a Giro SwitchBlade. Those things were like $350 retail.

We all make fun of them now, but we all used to own one lol.

The Pinner shorts are absolutely awesome. The fit felt a bit funky at first, but after I got used to them - man, best riding shorts ever!

Looking forward to trying some of the '07 product...

Riding shorts? Shit I wear them all day and go hiking in them. My Mother-in-law said they were nice. Usually the death knell for clothes, when a retired person says they're nice.
