I think it is safe to say that over the past few years, one of the biggest innovations in outdoor adventure has been the introduction of the helmet cam. Sure, we've had the ability to record our adventures in the past, but it was usually with bulky, heavy equipment that wasn't a lot of fun to use. But now days, rugged, inexpensive, lightweight video cameras have become the norm, and as a result, we now get amazing video, captured by professional and amateur filmmakers alike, with astounding regularity.

Hanna didn't have a choice, when her father first put her on a plastic pair of skis at the age of 3. Then she went the way of a classic alpine ski racer until the age of 18. Thanks to the racing experiences and alpine racing competitions, Hanna has a pretty smooth but at the same time sportive and radical skiing style. Her skiing skills made her an ISIA-skiing instructor and to a writer and journalist for a German speaking Freeride Onlinemagazine. Since then the 25-years-old German started venturing on ...

If you see people in action during training (it’s easiest to observe in a traditional weights/cardio gym), it’s not hard to notice that theres a massive difference between the majority who are having a ‘light’ session to say the least, and the much smaller proportion who are really working their bodies hard. As an aside, If you do see those people in the gym who look like they aren’t trying - don’t scoff inwardly (or outwardly!) at them - not everyone goes to the gym to work hard. Some people

For active, outdoor enthusiasts, the hydration pack just might be the greatest invention ever. The ability to conveniently carry our water with us no matter where we go or what activity we're doing, has made our ability to play and work outside much easier. Over the years, the hydration pack has evolved to the point where they are now lighter, easier to use, and more ergonomically designed to fit our bodies. They've even become specialized to the point that there are now hydration packs built for specific

As an outdoor adventure and travel writer, I'm fortunate in that I often get to test some amazing gear. I'm regularly sent backpacks, sleeping bags, tents, clothing and more, and while I'm often impressed with the gear I test, I seldom see something that is truly life changing. That is the best way to describe the LifeStraw however, which is a product that has the potential to change the world. The LifeStraw is one of those products that is so simple, you wonder why someone didn't think of it sooner. It
