Gear Review: Olicamp Kinetic Backpacking Stove
"Then, there’s the Olicamp Kinetic Ultra stove. At just 1.7 ounces (as in the weight of 10 quarters), it’s a lightweight (check) backpacking stove built with ultra-strong titanium (check) that’s made to work with any isobutene-propane gas mix (check)." --Summit Daily

"The edging of the Cypher Codex behaved exactly what it was billed to do. I was only able to send the Farley problem called Dope (v8) while wearing these shoes." --Climberism Magazine

Gear Review: Beal Cocoon Chalk Bag
"I never thought anyone was thinking critically about engineering chalk bags, but Beal came up with an intriguing way to open and close a bag more efficiently: rather than closing with a drawstring and toggle like virtually every other bag on the market (even those “after-market” Crown Royal sacks), the whole mouth of this bag snaps shut in an instant." --The Climbing Zine

Gear Review: Peregrine Saker Sleeping Bag
"I zipped into the Peregrine Saker 20 sleeping bag on a rainy, 30° F Texas evening. I was plenty toasty in Peregrine’s bag, and I’m sure it could handle even cooler temperatures." --Seattle Backpackers Magazine

Video Review: Singing Rock Penta Climbing Helmet
"This [Singing Rock Penta] is an ultralight helmet that won’t break the bank! An all foam construction with a thin shell makes it super durable and the light webbing harness and buckles are usable and functional." --Rock Climber Life

Video Review: Peregrine Zip Bags and Sacks
"These [Peregrine Zip Sacks & Peregrine Mesh Top Zip Bag ] are very ultra light and could easily be used in backpacking but i found them best used around car camping for the sake of family stuff all getting mixed up and causing stress and a big juxtapose of gear all over the place." --Trail and Mountain
