» VO_79 - Ski Reviews - Are they useful

I think ski reviews are extremely useful, just as long as the reviewer is coming in at a non-biased approach so an honest review is possible.

Mitch, you reviewed some gloves a while ago, called CZiP from Vaughn Outdoor. You stated two problems with them that I ran into myself. The first problem was the fingers dangling down in front of your camera lens unbeknownst to you, and the second was the transition of remembering to un-zip instead of take off the glove.

I wanted to point out the strap around the wrist of your CZiP gloves. Notice that this strap has velcro on it, and is there to secure the open portion of your gloves out of the way. That solves that problem. Next, remembering that your gloves unzip so you don't have to take them off... well, only time will teach you this habit. Here is the kicker, wear your CZiPs for a while, then try putting on a normal pair of gloves that you have to "take off" every time you need to use your fingers. You will then realize how useful these strange zipper gloves are.
