					<description><![CDATA[Intended Purpose: The Scandal BOA helmet delivers a feather light, low profile helmet with the option of the BOA fit system for a more custom fit. Appearance: I ended up demoing the Scandal BOA helmet in the pearl white colorway which is definitely white and clean. I would have preferred the purple or black option personally since they aren&#8217;t as bright but the white was a good combo for any goggles I rode that day. Fit: I&#8217;m not sure what size I rocked the Pro-Tec Scandal BOA helmet, probably a medium is my best guess. I did notice right away that even thought the fit wasn&#8217;t as tight as it could be, the BOA helped create tightness once adjusted and delivered a better fitting helmet for the day. Goggle Compatibility: I used the Pro-Tec Scandal helmet with the Oakley Canopy goggle for the day. The fit was good, the goggles have a pretty big frame but they still fit well together. Features: The Pro-Tec Scandal BOA helmet is designed with the BOA fit system for a more custom fit for different head shapes with on-the-fly adjustment.

Currently Riding: Salomon and Bonfire products Currently I am: a single speed mountain biking fool Shay: Tell us a little bit about yourself Rob: I grew up in New Jersey then lived in California for about 8 years where I learned how to snowboard and mountain bike, from there I moved to Steamboat Springs in 1994 and have been living here ever since. Shay: How has snowboarding or skiing change your life? Rob: Snowboarding is actually how I got my job at BOA, so I guess it was a significant catalyst of change in my life. Shay: How did you get your start in the industry, who or what opened up more opportunities for you? Rob: Right after BOA started I was approached by my friend Caleb who at the time ran BC Surf &#38; Sport in town and he mentioned that a guy named Gary Hammerslag was looking for snowboard boot testers for this lacing system he invented. That was pretty much it and I have been involved with the company ever since. [&#8230;]]]></description>

[singlepic id=5361 w=400 h=300 float=] Shay: What was your first set up? Brett: My first set-up consisted of my Sorel’s locked down on a Morrow Spoon Nose. I loved that board and am jazzed that they brought it back this year. Shay: What is your current set up? Brett: Currently I am riding a Palmer board with Ride bindings. That is the only permanent part of my set up. The boots get rotated as I am always testing new configurations and part combinations. Shay: What was your first job? Brett: Cold prep at Chi-Chi’s and then selling skis at a big box retailer. But in my field? Designing refrigerators for Amana. Shay: What’s a great day of snowboarding to you?
