RTL’s Gift Guide for the Last Minute Shopper - #3 Nerf N-Strike Vulcan EBF-25 Blaster

Festive, Gadgets, Home, Kids, Mens, Reviews, Toys No Comments »

On the third day of Christmas my true love gave to the Office Worker/My Inner-Child:

Nerf N-Strike Vulcan EBF-25 Blaster

What takes six D sized batteries, is about as stealth as Roseanne Barr at an all-you-can-eat buffet, will simultaneously have you live your childhood Rambo/Predator/Commando/Unreal Tournament dream/fetish and will make your other office mates jealous with envy while ducking your soft yet automatic wrath?

Nerf N-Strike Vulcan EBF-25 Blaster. That’s what. Go out, buy one, and truly understand that you are holding in your hand a belt driven, fully automatic soft-shelled weapon of least destruction. But it enables your ability to fill that almost closet postal service level rage and releases it in a soft enough to never cause bodily harm - eyes and crotch shots still need to be avoided - but hard enough to make your presence known - back of the head shots satisfy like no other.

RTL’s Gift Guide for the Last Minute Shopper - #4 Prada Infusion D’Homme Cologne

Cologne, Fashion, Festive, Mens, Reviews 1 Comment »

I’m a day late with this one due to some unforeseen issues, so Monday will have the #3 and #2 last second gift guide offerings.  Sorry for that guys.

With that said…

On the fourth day of Christmas my true love gave to the Scent Aficionado:Prada Infusion D'homme Cologne

If your idea of a cologne is Axe body spray, it’s time to graduate to something less offensive and more intimate. Prada Infusion D’Homme is a very clean, close-clinging scent that smells very fresh, almost like good, french milled soap with a hint of incense and citrus. And once sprayed on, it dies down to a point where if you hug a woman, or get close enough to make contact, you’ll be smelled gently; not something that announces your presence like some of the more bright, loud colognes out there right now.

The only drawback though, you’d better be a confident man with the ability to be “sophisticated” - holding out your pinky finger while eating a Big Mac does count - to pull this scent off. There’s a bit of a hint of iris in the scent too. So think of it as you’re the nice, sophisticated man with a clean scent… that had a run-in with a fresh cut bouquet of flowers. It’s not overly flowery, but it’s there. Read the rest of this entry »

Freebord releases all new G3 Trucks and Deck Designs

Freebord G3 Decks and Trucks - new designs

It’s been a while, but I had an article about the Freebord “skateboard” that honestly, while riding it, seems to share more with a snowboard than a skateboard. Even though I was a huge skateboard fanatic growing up, the years have seen me shift to more snowboarding - it didn’t hurt as much if I fall.

Freebord’s rapidly growing community of riders is constantly pushing the sport forward and inspiring product advancement. In response to growing demand and rider feedback for a more aggressive setup, Freebord has improved and redesigned the trucks to provide enhanced durability, strength and responsiveness for riders of all levels. The trucks were developed by a team of snowboarders and product designers, specifically engineered for technical precision and better control.

“We have always worked very closely with snowboarders, surfers and skaters to design boards that meet their rigorous riding styles and deliver a ride that keeps them stoked year round. This process was no exception,” said Steen Strand, Freebord founder. “Seeing how fast Freebord is growing and how hard the riders are pushing it, it became clear it was time for us to push the innovation envelope once again.”

Decks:

Freebord also released today three new series of deck graphics in varying sizes: Elite, Haze and Riot. Light, responsive, and solid, these decks are designed to bomb the steeps with total control and stability while still being light enough for airs. Suitable for riders of all weights and heights, all of Freebord’s decks come gripped and are made with 7-Ply, Canadian rock maple.

Truck Features:

  • T6 cast aluminum base plates and hangars
  • Wider base plate footprint for more responsiveness
  • Flat hangar design and extended bracket for more stable grinds
  • Locked-in base wheel bearing for improved durability
  • Redesigned base wheel bracket with no-slip adjustment notches
  • Larger, higher grade base wheel for added durability
  • Well, falling while on your Freebord will still hurt (that’s incentive to suck less), but the sensation of snowboarding in the middle of the summer still should be enticing.

    Prices start at around $229.99. Hit up Freebord’s site for more information.
