Gold Medalist

Art of Nordic Skiing
$29.95
It is a big step forward in cutting edge presentation of XC images and educational materials. Combining loads of hot shot footage and a pumping alt.rock soundtrack, both the video and DVD are a perfect presentation or backdrop to a club potluck, overnight trip, or snow dance party. Mostly promotional in nature rather than oriented to technique, that is enough right there to separate this beast from the pack. There is something for just about anyone. The DVD puts them eons ahead of the rest of the XC pack) has tons of extra goodies. A great time-eater on airplanes destined to get your whole area of the plane craning their necks (we know, we tried it :-). - Cross Country Ski World and American Cross Country Skiers

Finalist at the Banff Mountain Film Festival and chosen by Vancouver International Mountain Film Festival in "Best of the Fest" tour.

The Vegetarian Sports Nutrition Guide: Peak Performance for Everyone from Beginners to Gold Medalists
$18.95
I bought this book in hopes of weight training and still be a vegetarian. To find the information you have to browse through the pages back and forth. The recipes are thrown in between other information, they are hard to find and keep them organized. It seems as though the information is just thrown all together randomly without any kind of specific structure or plan. Everything is all over the place combined with a bunch of complicated words and unnecessary information. Also information on certain supplements and plans are "Out on the jury" meaning the author has no idea, proof, or real recommendation of wether it works or not. In my opinion if you don't know if something works for sure... don't write about it in a 'guide'. It's silly. I wouldn't buy this book and I do not recommend it. In fact if I could return it, I would. Right now it's just going to the trash can.

This is actually my second one. The first one got so much use over the course of 18 months by my daughters, the ball became oblong. They will hit the ball practicing their swing every day. Love it...

These were my first Cross pens/pencils, and so far the work very well. The larger size is easier to work with also and makes writing more comfortable.
