The links provided will patch you through to our great pals at evo, where all of the items listed below (and loads more) are available for purchase. Don’t let winter slip away, friends. Get after it.
Jibber’s Delight
This new combo from anon. is built for comfort, compatibility and style. The cylindrical-lens anon. M3 Goggle utilizes Magna-Tech — eighteen corresponding magnets at nine connection points that join frame and lens — for what we deem to be the fastest quick-change mechanism on the planet. Three-layer face foam provides the ultimate cushioning and wicks away moisture, too. Full perimeter venting built into the M3 pairs seamlessly with passive vents on the all-new anon. Helo 2.0 helmet, ensuring a welcome breeze to your dome.

The MFI Hood Clava is an adjustable stretch fleece hood that magnetically attaches to any pair of MFI compatible goggles (including the M3). It’s a swagger-loaded and stylish option for those who prefer to shred sans helmet.

An Editors’ Pick three years running, Henrik Harlaut’s pro model, the Armada Edollo Skis, (formerly named the Al Dente) is the playful skier’s dream. EDollo was given free reign to design this ski to fit his style and it shows. “Butter my bread, man these are playful!” exclaimed one FREESKIER ski tester. “These make me feel like I have dreadlocks and can do nose butter double corks,” said another. At 98 mm underfoot, it’s a wide ride—ideal for those who surf the hill. Nose rocker lends to a catch-free experience, too. “Damn, this thing rips. Unreal how enjoyable this ski is,” gushed another tester.
