The Curated Take

By the Expert Community

I took this hood out on different weather days to see how it stood up. Pretty great on a mild, sunny weather day. Wasn't too hot and helped keep the hair out of my face while riding. The material was perfect for under my helmet as it wasnt too heavy/ thick and didnt make me sweat.

Also took it out on a colder, windy day of riding. The face mask was great for keeping my face from freezing and was easy to pull up and down. Did not ice up super quickly like many face covers seem to. I did need a beanie along with the hood as the hood itself is not very warm, especially with the wind.

The material is super soft and feels good against your face. Doesn't chafe like some hoods do. Fits really well under a helmet.

Ideal for
  • Great for keeping face covered from biting winds. Easy to pull up and down.
  • The moisture from breathing doesnt instantly freeze solid like other hoods
  • Soft material, doesn't chafe
Not ideal for
  • Not meant to be a super warm hood. Would recommend a beanie with hood if its really cold.
  • Hood by hairline could be a bit longer to help cover the forehead more

The Blackstrap Hood is the ultimate balaclava facemask for skiers, snowboarders, and snowmobile riders. This high-performance accessory sets the industry standard in comfort, protection from the elements, and style.

Key Features:

  • Patented Tri-Blend Fabric (Milled in the USA): The Blackstrap Hood features a unique blend of synthetic materials that are breathable, moisture-wicking, lens-safe, antimicrobial, quick-drying and machine washer/dryer friendly.
  • Wind rated dual layer Exo-Hinge neck and face: The Exo-Hinge construction provides an extra barrier of wind protection while remaining breathable for maximum comfort.

I had an absolutely amazing experience with Edward! Going in to buying skis I had no idea what to look for and super anxious about finding the perfect skis. He gave me great recommendations and guided me every step of the way. Super attentive and overall a great resource! If you are paired with Edward you’re in great hands! I couldn't be happier with my purchase. Thank you, Edward for everything! You truly made the experience amazing for me from offering recommendations, answering questions, and supporting me throughout the process! You’re the best!!!

This guy will answer as many questions as you can throw his way- even if you ask the same question 5 different ways. NEVER felt like he got annoyed with me. Super knowledgeable and if he didn't know the exact right answer he said he'd find out and did quickly. I don't expect anyone to know everything, and I respect when someone can admit it and know where to find it. I'm still asking him questions even after my purchase lolHighly Recommended!!! Thanks Brenden.

Josh helped me figure out exactly what it is that I needed. Ive been a skateboarder for 20+ years and he has helped me transition to snowboarding by guiding me into the direction that most fits a person with heavy skateboarding background. He explained the gear and everything. He listened to my story and helped me define a setup from just that information.

I am truly grateful for the time Daniela spent taking care of my many questions as I decided on equipment for skiing. There are so many measurements to deal with (Daniela mentioned ones I didn’t even know I needed to know) it was frustrating. She held my hand, and I’m confident I have something for my skill level. There are settings I know I will need some pro help on like DIN settings. I’m looking forward to hitting the slopes with my new gear. Thanks Daniela!

Jarom was responsive and understanding. He made sure he understood what I was looking for, and helped explain what he thought would be a good fit. When I approached him with another Ski, he was quick to assure me that it was a good ski, but also why he thought the one he chose would be a better fit. I really couldn’t have asked for a better experience

Dave was FANTASTIC!
5 /5
I was in the market for a new snowboard and bindings for the 2024 season. I have had the same set up for about 10 years now and was ready to invest in a solid set up. I filled out the Curated questionnaire and was lucky to land Dave as my Curated expert. I chatted it up with Dave on what I like to do on the mountains and within 20 min I received his recommended line up of boards and bindings. Dave took the time to provide a detailed description for each board/bindings along with a personalize video as well which was so cool! Literally feel like I’m friends with the guy now, ha! I ended up going with the T. Rice Pro with the Union Falcor bindings. PUMPED for the 2024 season to rip it on my new setup! Dave is the man 🤙🏼
