OPTP Pro Foam Rollers - Full Round 36" x 6" Blue Marble Review

OPTP Pro Foam Rollers - Full Round 36' x 6' Blue MarbleThe blue marble and green marble OPTP foam rollers are the best that I have found. They are worth the money, most of the other products out there are too soft for effective use and wear down quickly. My gym has this type of roller for member use and I had to buy one for home. I run and work out daily and when I thought I pulled something in my knee a trainer asked me if I rolled out all my muscle groups in my legs. When I rolled out the leg with the troubled knee, I felt the tension release and my knee has been fine since. Tight muscles contribute to all kinds of strain and injuries. If you work out at any level, you should own a high-density foam roller. Rolling out your muscles has more health benefits that I can list in this review, but bottom line- you will feel better, it helps prevent injury and is much better than simple streching.

Brunton ComPro M2 Pocket Transit Military Compass with 0-360 Degree Scale Review

Brunton ComPro M2 Pocket Transit Military Compass with 0-360 Degree ScaleI admired this compass for almost 30 years since I first saw one sitting on a fire direction officer's table at a gunnery range at Fort Bragg.In later land navigation training we were told not to question the accuracy of the course as it was set up using an artillery compass.At that point I pondered how I could hope to successfully complete the course with a battered Army lensatic compass.

The Brunton Pocket Transit series of compasses are some of the most accurate hand held compasses in the world. They were only surpassed in recent decades with the introduction of affordable hand held GPS units and electronic compasses.

I have owned quite a few compasses, but the Brunton is the Cadillac of compasses.I have gone through several fine lensatic, matchbox, and baseplate compasses over the years.Although my trusty Army lensatic compass outlasted them all, and indeed assisted my navigation during the first Gulf War, it is little more than a hardened toy when compared to the M2.

The M2 compass, sometimes called the M2 Artillery Compass, was the U.S. Army's standard artillery and mortar compass since World War II.The original M2's were the commercial versions of Brunton brass or aluminum -cased compasses with military stampings.Brunton compasses were originally designed for surveyors, miners, and geologists.They were a very practical choice for the US Army artillery where accuracy spells life or death.In fact all of the Pocket Transit compasses are designed to fit on special tripod mounts for improved professional accuracy.

The compass degree dial can easily be adjusted for magnetic declination.The unit also has two sets of fluid levels. The compass needle itself is jewel balanced and rapidly points north when the case is opened.The inside of the compass is not liquid filled so there is no threat of errant air bubbles appearing over time and interfering with the movement of the directional needle.

The pocket transit should not be mistaken for an expensive lensatic compass.In the strictest sense it is a directional compass.Unlike a standard Army lensatic compass, where the user holds the compass in a fashion where the lid of the compass is positioned away from the user and aligned toward the desired direction, the M2 can be sighted using sights on either side.The thing to remember is with the M2 the north end of the needle indicates the degrees at which long sight is pointing at the target, where as the south end of needle is the back azimuth.The other difference is that unlike the Army lensatic compass the M2 does not have a magnifying lens imbedded in the site.

Though the Brunton Pocket Transit Compass can be used like a lensatic or prismatic compass, it should not be mistaken for one.The fact that it is a precision surveying compass poses a few shortcomings for those who are used to the ease of a lensatic compass:
-First: The Army lensatic compass (or similar model) has a magnifying glass in the site aiding in reading the degree dial.The Pocket Transit has no such aid as the degree markers are fixed to the inside of the compass and not free floating as in the lensatic compass. For me this means wearing my bifocals to read the tiny degree markings when using the compass for orienteering.
-Second:The compass needle is very sensitive and is easily diverted from magnetic north if you are near clusters of electrical high tension wires or within 75 yards of railroad tracks with overhead electrical lines.
-Third:The pocket transit is not luminous.If you are using this compass in the dark you will need a light source.

The M2 version of the Pocket Transit Compass is just one version of Brunton compasses of this particular class. As such it can be confusing when evaluating which compass to buy.The product descriptions read virtually the same for the different models.This sometimes makes it difficult to determine which of the Pocket Transit compasses will meet your needs.In the case of the M2 compass the listing noted incorrectly -- probably because it was a cut and pasted from other model entries -- that the compass came with a leather case.Not so with the M2.The military version of the M2 came with an olive drab plastic case.This is the same case that comes with military issue M2 compasses.

The other primary difference between the military version and most of the other Brunton compasses is that the M2 version is housed in a durable OD green composite (i.e plastic) casing.There are one or two other Brunton Pocket Transit compasses that likewise have composite casings.If you are set on an aluminum body compass instead of the composite material, check the photo carefully. If the upper lid, the section that contains the mirror, has holes around the inside of the lid then the compass is housed in composite.The solid lid is for the aluminum body.Composite has a lot of benefits in that it is light weight and durable.The OD color runs throughout the composite so it has no finish to wear off.About the only drawback is that the composite version is not servicable.It is not repairable because there is no way to access the inside of the compass without cracking the plastic casing.

Alas, my days of navigating across trackless desert and through dense dark woods are over.As such I probably added the Brunton Pocket Transit to my collection a couple decades too late. Still it is great to have a precision navigational aid that does not rely on antennas, batteries, or DC power from the car.

Product Description:
Housed in a G.I.-issue composite plastic case in an olive drab color, the ComPro M2 Pocket Transit compass is designed specifically for military applications, yet still delivers the same great results as Brunton's consumer-grade compasses. The M2 incorporates a cast NdFeB rare-earth magnet that's precisely balanced on a sapphire bearing. The powerful magnet, which resists demagnetization better than other types of magnets, seeks magnetic north remarkably quickly and allows for faster readings. The compass also takes vertical measurements to +/- 90 degrees (or 100-percent grade), with 5-percent grade scale increments. Add in waterproof O-rings and you have an ideal compass for almost any on-the-go application.
Professionals will delight in the M2's high degree of precision, with an azimuth and vertical accuracy of +/- 1/2 degree (with 1-degree graduations). The accuracy is further improved by the short and long sights and the precision-aligned mirror with convenient "see-through" sighting capability. As a final bonus, the compass offers magnetic declination adjustment when traveling through regions with magnetic variations, allowing for east or west declination settings to 180 degrees.
The M2, which boasts a 0-to-360-degree scale and comes with a durable leather carrying case, is backed by a one-year warranty.

FLIP SKATEBOARDS "HKD" Complete Skateboard 7.5" HOT! Review

FLIP SKATEBOARDS 'HKD' Complete Skateboard 7.5' HOTI searched all over the web and found this to be one of the best deals for a higher name brand board(as opposed to a blank)I bought this board for my son, he is an intermediate level skater and his Big Store Brand board wasnt cutting it anymore. He was having issues doing tricks and it was determined that his board was the problem, that is parts were lower quality thus lower performance so we decided to buy a better board.

I was very pleased w/ the selected components as well as the overall quality of the deck and especially the grip tape

I wish the add made it clearer that you must assemble the board, though i figured this was the case as the picture shows parts and not a complete board, so FYI assembly is required but all you need is basic house hold tools like a socket set, a screwdriver and maybe a small hammer or rubber mallet if you dont have a punch to push the screws through the grip tape

I purchased the item late one night, it shipped the next morning so two thumbs up to TGK though their shipping was higher than others and had it in hand in 3 or 4 days

I definately recommend this board for those upgrading from a big department store type board and who are looking for a deal to fit their budget

Product Description:
In the winter of '96/'97, while everyone was riding 6'1" thrusters featuring Slater's elf shoe rocker and long before the "retro fish" craze, two kids attacked the North Shore and beyond on 5'5" twin fins. The subsequent action ended up being tossed together for the 1997 video "5'5" x 19 1/4" and Other Oddities."What started as an addendum of random recent "fish clips" has turned into a magnus opus of epic proportion. Over 10... or 8... or 12 years in the making.Starring Chris Ward, Aaron Cormican, and Mason Ho putting sub 5'6" boards to their limits. Also featuring sections from Shane Beschen, Kolohe Andino, Dane Reynolds, Jordy Smith, Ryan Carlson, and Ol' Mr. SL9er himself.And for the first time ever seen, Cory Lopez and Ian Walsh weaving through some of the longest tubes ever captured on what "Surfer" Magazine dubbed "The Holy Grail of Surf Scores."

Molten Super Touch Red, White, and Blue Japanese Leather Volleyball Review

Molten Super Touch Red, White, and Blue Japanese Leather VolleyballI have this ball (only in blue) and have been using it twice weekly for about 14 months. It is the perfect ball for causual or competitive play. It is slightly softer than the Men's ball (Pro Touch) and is great for co-ed play. I personally like the Pro Touch better, but most of the people I play with like the Super Touch because of the fact that it's softer while still retaining the bounce and control of the pro touch. If you want a ball that hits hard, plays quick, and yet isn't quite as hard as the Pro Touch, this is the ball for you. Plus, this ball is made from genuine leather so you know you're playing with a "real" volleyball and not a "Nerf" ball like some of the other brands.
