Ski of the year in some mags - I'm not surprised!
Review of Rossignol Bandit B2 Skis by

Advantages: Go anywhere do almost anything - on snow, of course!
Disadvantages: Snow melts :o(
...and B3. It turns out that the B1, B2, and B3, are the successors to the Bandit X, XX, and XXX, respectively. The reputation of the original Bandit series is legendary and living up to it will be some feat. Exceeding it will be miraculous. However, according to this magazine, the Bandit B2 did exactly that in comparison to the Bandit XX. In fact, they called it one of the best ski's they'd ever tested - Ski of the Year 2004, no less. And another skiing magazine agreed! Impressive.
I was now intrigued. I rang my favourite holiday company and asked him to book a demo pair for me.
So there I am, in a French hire shop surrounded by people getting boots fitted, etc., being handed a pair of 170cm Rossi Bandit B2's with Rossi 110 Axium hire bindings on. Normally they'd come with Power 120 S-Plate bindings, but being demo skis you can't be too...

Your shins saved!
Review of Nike Tiempo by
kingbill
Advantages: Stops your shins from breaking!
Disadvantages: smell after a while!
...Shinpads are a vital piece of equipment when it comes to football. From the world cup down to the Preston Sunday League Division Four. All players must wear Shinpads.
The main reason for this equipment is it hurts when you get kicked in the shin as the shin is made of two bones (tibia and fibula) and they have only skin for protection. So no real protectection. They also break pretty easyly so the shin pad provides massive protection for this tender part of the body.
Anybody who sees the likes of Steven Gerrard lunging in with two feet and Mo Sissoko aswell as Michael Essien and of course the famous Roy Keane can see the need for a suit of armour although this would not be practical so the shin pad is the most comfortable padding available.
Onto the Nike Tiempo. These were my first choice a short while back as they look very sturdy...
