Pros: Compact, long battery life, easy to use, its a Canon...
Cons: Not so easy to use with gloves on, the zoom feels backwards (but that is just us)

Ok, so Canon is breaking some barriers with this little piece of technology. We got our hands on one of these during the '07 Mountain Bike season, by the time the snow flew, we had 3! The point we are making here is that these are extremely versatile cameras that not only shoot 10 megapixel still images, but it also shoot 720 p HDTV video. Don't rub your eyes, you read correctly. HD baby! You can be the envy of all your YouTubin' friends with the hottest looking ski vids.

Pros: Made from sustainable wool, doesn't smell, doesn't itch
Cons: not too many colours to choose from, costs more than a tank of gas!

We some of this Icebreaker gear a season ago and one of us (names unmetioned) decided to try going a year without washing it. Well, we all survived and the piece of clothing did not smell at all! We can't say enough about this stuff except for that you can only really afford to buy one piece a year because it is a little pricey. However, awesome performance and great tempurature control.
