Breitling - Emergency Watch

Updated Nov 6, 2007

2 people recommended this item

Description

I am sporting my new Breittling Emergency and I totally love it. Granted and fortunately, I generally don't need an emergency distress beacon w/110 radius on a daily basis, it is still a good feeling to know I could let any plane flying overhead know exactly where I am and that I needed help asap. The breitling Emergency is designed to offer downed pilots an additional beacon in case their plane crashes. I am not a pilot but I am a mountain biker, climber, and surfer, sports which often take me to places where there are few other people around. If I ever crash hard on my bike and am off the trail in a heap, stranded climbing, or, as was the case when I surfing in Indonesia, afraid our boat was going to sink after hitting a reef @ night 100 miles off the coast of Sumatra, I would be really glad to have the extra beacon on me.

plus, the Breitling Emergency looks cool (I got it w/an orange face). Stylish enough to wear w/a suit but still sporty. Has an alarm too which is a must-have feature for me.

evolv Evo Rock Shoes

Updated Mar 23, 2007

Description

I love the Evolv EVO's. After years of using super-mushy/soft-soled moccasins, the EVO's offer a bit more structure and pointing ability. I do miss being able to curl my toes the way I can in my Moccasyms, but the precision I gain w/the EVO's makes up for the lost malleability.

Also, the EVO's are super-comfy and go and off super-easily. Even though they are synthetic, they don't get that super nasty funky smell so many synthetics do.

GNC Pro Performance® - Mega MRP™ - Chocolate Drink Mix

Updated Nov 24, 2006

1st to recommend

Description

OK- this stuff is a bit of an acquired taste but I happen to really like it. It tastes like chocolate (which is not true of many "chocolate" sports drinks), it mixes easily, and it fills me up. Plus it seems to work and has lots of protein. I often drink one of these 20 min or so before surfing or beginning a climbing session and it keeps me going throughout.

Parallel Sound

Updated Oct 24, 2006

1st to recommend

Description

These guys are great electronica DJ's/artists. They definitely know how to capture your body w/their beats and take you for a ride. Funky, often fierce, complex but accessible, and endorphin-pumping. I love these guys' music when I am running, biking, or pulling down at the rockwall. Also good for getting into my own world during a session work session. I definitely want to see these guys when they tour LA (via John Digweed)

Orbital 2 by Orbital

Updated Jul 23, 2006

1st to recommend

2 people recommended this item

Description

These guys totally rock. I have seen them live. Anyone who tells you electronic music is not exciting live has obviously not seen an Orbital show.

Orbital 2 is another classic. Less ambient and more in line w/the minimalist style of composers like Steve Reich or tribal drumming, Orbital takes the discipline of layered percussion to new places w/their powerful beats, rich sounds, and somewhat tongue-in-cheek humor.

Need to get fired up- listen to Orbital 2. Halcyon is a particularly beautiful and haunting track.

Electronica to live by
Updated Apr 16, 2008
My favorite electronica albums- these works have endured and get better the more I hear them. Some are older, some newer, some more techno, others more ambient, but all will take you to a new world
