Default i need to buy some snow gear

goggles, jacket, gloves, pants, and boots for blading

goggles and boots i'll probably have to find at a B&M store to make sure it fits right. but everything else i can get online.

anyone know good sites besides amazon?

I would say B&M on the jacket, but your area doesn't stock snow stuff like the midwest.

brb ... I'll look for coupons.

check b&m like sportsmart or big5 (if you've got them)...

they've had some kickass deals there. i got my friend a nice ass setup for <$200 (board, boots, bindings)

they also had goggles for $20 last time i checked (orig $50)

i'll let you know if i see any online deals.

duct tape can come in handy for sealing those leaks
