DAKINE Surf Pack with Wetsuit Pocket-Capable of safely storing your gear, all with matched fit and comfort.The DAKINE Surf Pack was also comfortable to wear for long periods (like waiting to board, waiting in line on the Lido deck, etc.). Even better, the side pocket was perfect for holding a large water bottle.
Product Information of DAKINE Surf Pack.
I used DAKINE Surf Pack while on vacation and am jubilant with it. Holds everything I expected it to with good options for an organization in the outer pocket. The sunglasses pocket is great, and the seam sealed pocket kept moisture from getting into the main compartment.

We purchased this backpack for a cruise so that we could keep all of the things we needed with us while off of the ship. The front compartment enabled us to store documents and make them easily reachable. The sunglass pouch did an excellent job of protecting sunglasses.We abused this backpack (dragged, kicked, sand and the sun) and it still looks new. We wish it to many years of use.
This bag is fabulous!! Great, durable material. Many pockets and pockets in pockets. Two minor things that could have made this bag better. 1- the straps to hold a skateboard are too small to support any longboard. 2- there is only one container that is waterproof, the whole bag isn’t waterproof. Other than those two things, AMAZING BAG!
Honestly, the best bag I have ever had. Prefer the colors and the inside front pocket is Aztec maroon! Can’t wait to use it for courses and the shore, the wet dry pocket in the back is an excellent idea!Cool looking backpack. Many of space. I purchased it for school, and it fits all of my books and notebooks. Unyielding and well made.The bag is beautiful, fits a lot of items. A bit heavier than what I expected and the whole bag is not water resistant.
Smith Pivlock V90 Sunglass revolutionised sunglasses when they introduced the interchangeable lens, and now theyAAAve done it again by creating the PIVLock V90 Sunglasses. This rimless, ultralight pair of sunglasses features detachable hanging temple arms and removable bridge piece that suddenly snap on and off to accommodate one of the three included lenses when lighting situations turn. The one-piece carbonic TLT lenses highlight a sweat-seal hydro coating to resist condensation as well as oils, and the hydrophilic nose and pantheon pads present a secure fit in any conditions.

Pros and Cons of Smith Pivlock V90 Sunglass.
I bought Smith Pivlock V90 Sunglass as there are no frame rims, which obstruct my field of view when riding in the “aero position” (leaning forward with curves in the aero bars). Other labels of glasses, no matter how cold, have framed rims that block my field of view when I ride in the aero situation. I would have to either crane my head upward to get a field of view (pain in the neck) or else accept the top frame rim of the glasses obstructing my view of the road ahead.
These glasses are a pleasure and even more so due to their variation in interchangeable/removable lenses. Diverse other styles because requiring popping or unlocking of sorts, these lenses detach the lens from the frame at the hinge itself – performing the swap from the sunny day lens to the dark day lens or the clear lens easier and quicker than anything I’ve used yet! Bravo! Five stars!!!!!
I’ve tried a lot of various brands to find the perfect sports related sunglasses, and these finally fit the bill. I run marathons and do the triathlon and need a good set of proposals that run and bike well without having to complain about them too enough. Swapping eyeglasses are cake, and the lenses themselves have been awesome and reasonably durable as well. My three favourite things about these glasses are:
1. The frameless lens is of particular importance on a tri bike when you’re in an offensive position so much comfortable to see up the road without the top of the structure getting in the way.
2. Excellent coverage. One I slide these babies on it takes all of about 15 seconds for me to forget I’m exhausting them as the coverage is complete with no light leakage. They protect well from wind and rain and become part of you after awhile. They’re light enough also, so I don’t even notice them.
3. Who stay in a dark sweater gravely, and these things stay glued to my face. The rubber used on the temple grips, and the nosepiece works well in putting the glasses from skating around, and I find myself adjusting them only occasionally, which is nice when you’re working out.
If that wasn’t enough, I lately lost my first couple after a bike ride one nighttime and was online the very next daylight ordering the same pair…I like them Smith Pivlock V90 Sunglass much.
I cycle about 23-27 hours a week and wear glasses as not only protection against the sun, but protection from objects such as bugs, etc. I have utilised Oakley Radar sunglasses for a considerable amount of time, but they fail me in one of my needed missions. I’m an avid time trial competitor, and when I compete on my time trial bike, I utilise a Kask helmet with a pull-down visor. Hence I do not need sunglasses when I am racing. When I am training on my time trial bike, however, I always find myself looking at the top rim of the Oakleys when in the aggressive TT position on my aero bars. The Smith Pivlock glasses are perfect for that mission. I now have an unobstructed, very comfortable view of the road when riding in that competitive, flat back position.
The lens can be changed in seconds between the three sets of supplied lenses, and the glasses and spare lenses/extra nose piece come in a nice, stable, large, very protective, zippered case. If I have one criticism about the glasses, it would be that in the hot, humid weather of the Florida summer, I seem to sweat under these glasses – something that I do not do with my Oakleys. Perhaps it is just a function of my face geometry.
The glasses are incredibly light (1 oz on my postal scale) hence very comfortable to wear. These are probably the best sports glasses out there, and at about half the price of the Oakleys, you cannot go wrong. Also, after searching the web, I found the best price to be right here on Amazon.
Harman Kardon Esquire Mini
Harman Kardon Esquire Mini
While it’s undeniably handy and sounds surprisingly good for its size, the Harman Kardon Esquire Mini hasn’t quite got what it takes when it comes to tone. It’s easy to use, has a long-lasting battery and some useful features, but it’s no Best Buy.
A slimline Bluetooth travel speaker that’s roughly the size of a large, big-screen smartphone. With its flip-out stand and hands-free calling capabilities, it’s the kind of speaker you imagine travelling executives reaching for in their plush hotel rooms.
Harman Kardon Esquire Mini
The sound is good up to a point, offering lots of detail. Unfortunately, there’s not much going on at the bass-end, nor the power you need to make music fill a big space. It struggles to bring classical music to life, and the lack of bass is evidence in many styles of music. It does a better job with speech, however, which sounds crisp and articulate or at least as understandable as whoever’s speaking.
Harman Kardon Esquire Mini
You won’t have any problems switching it on or connecting it to a smartphone or tablet over Bluetooth. There are volume controls on the speaker, while the Harman Kardon Esquire Min i button doubles as a play/pause button when you’re not in a call. It keeps a good hold of a Bluetooth wireless signal within the same room.
Beyond Bluetooth, the only way to connect the speaker to a source is a 3.5mm input.
Harman Kardon Esquire Mini
Get it charged, and the battery will last for a good eight hours, and thou container more uses the USB port to charge other devices, including your smartphone. You can also check battery levels quickly by pressing and holding the on/off button.
If you’re more interested in speech and hands-free calls than music, then this is a good speaker you can carry with you everywhere. Just beware the lack of bass.
Harman Kardon Soho
Harman Kardon Soho
These Harman Kardon Soho slim headphones may be one of the most stylish sets of on-ear models around, but they can’t compete with established rivals when it comes to sound and comfort.
The model we tested came with a universal in-line remote, most suited to Android mobile phones. If you have an Apple device, opt for the Harman Kardon Soho headphones instead they have a slightly different in-line remote, adding the functionality to skip back and forward through tracks.
Harman Kardon Soho
The Soho on-ear headphones are very portable, so are designed for people who listen to music on the move but don’t like the idea of headphones that sit inside your ear canal. They’re one of the lightest of this type we have tested and have an ingenious folding mechanism so shouldn’t take up too much room in your bag.
Considering Harman Kardon Soho has kitted out luxury car brands such as BMW, Mercedes-Benz and Land Rover with its audio equipment, we had high hopes for the Soho headphones. Unfortunately, they were short-lived.
Harman Kardon Soho
While they are certainly not the worst we have ever heard, they just don’t offer anything particularly unique and are a little bass heavy.
They are clearly well made and shouldn’t damage too easily especially if you store them in the hard travel case when not in use. There are also some features to help make life easier, including ear cups that fold up into the headband, and magnetic pads that sit on the ear cups to keep the cable in place.
Harman Kardon Soho
If you want so stand out from the crowd, these headphones also come in bright white or brown each with a colour coordinated chain.
These should only last bought if you rate style over substance if you fall into that you might also want to consider the Bowers & Wilkins P3. You’re better off checking out some of our Best Buy headphones.
HP Deskjet 1010
HP Deskjet 1010
HP Deskjet 1010 Printing costs look favourable with this printer, and print quality is reasonable, but it uses a combined colour cartridge which may increase ink costs depending on how you write.
It’s a no-frills standard colour HP Deskjet 101 0 printer. It’s ideal for printing sharp black text cheaply. Any printers strike theirs version covers if thou just write regularly. The uses ink that will never reach the paper.
This printer doesn’t seem to use any extra ink when occasionally printing, compared with writing the same number of pages in one go.
HP Deskjet 1010
That is low compared with most other inkjet printers we’ve tested and printing black text and colour pages out cheaper than average.
Text prints look sharp more like the excellent quality we used to see from Deskjet 1010 printers. Graphics prints look reasonable if a little soft and sometimes uneven. Photo prints lack a bit of punch.
HP Deskjet 1010
Print speed is good text prints at the fairly average rate of 7.3 pages per minute and an A4 photo is out of the printer in around three minutes, which isn’t bad.
It uses a combined colour cartridge. Whenever thou print a lot of one colour, you will have to replace the other colours when the first one runs out, which will have an impact on your ink operating costs.
HP Deskjet 1010
You’re limited to just USB connectivity with this printer so you have to connect it directly to the device yourself printing from, and there’s no USB cable in the box so you’ll have to buy one separately. It can’t print borderless 6×4-inch photos.
If you’re very looking as something cheap to print text from a single computer or laptop this Deskjet 1010 printer is a reasonable choice, but if you want to print from more devices, you’ll want a more versatile printer.
EPSON Expression XP 520
EPSON Expression XP 520
The pricier EPSON Expression XP 520 printers, but the XP-520 still turns out equally impressive photos and colour pages, making it a relatively cheap-to-buy.
It’s an all-in-one printer that can print, copy and scan, with wireless connectivity and the ability to automatically print double-sided pages. Its best asset is its ability to print great-looking photos and colour graphics pages containing text and images.
EPSON Expression XP 520
Any printers clean their print heads if you write only occasionally. The uses ink that never reaches the paper.
Printer
In our tests, this printer used 267% more ink when occasionally printing, turning the printer off between uses, compared with printing the same number of pages in one go. That is a lot compared with most other inkjet printers we’ve tested – as a result, black text and colour prints work out a little pricey, which may put you off buying.
EPSON Expression XP 520
Published photos and colour graphics pages are this printer’s forte – both look sharp. Office colour prints such as charts and spreadsheets come out a little soft-looking too, and block colour seems a little ragged at the edges. They’re reasonable enough, though. Text print speed on this printer is a little slower than on the XP-620 – 7.3 pages per minute compared with 9.4. However, across the board, print speed on this machine is reasonable.
As with many of the other printers in the Expression Premium range – including the similarly priced XP-620 – colour copies look great. Mono copies don’t have quite the same punch, but they’re OK, and the scanner function is competent.
EPSON Expression XP 520
Changing the cartridges in the printer can leave you with slightly inky fingers. It lacks the ability to print on CD and DVD – a feature of the higher-end models in the Expression range.
It has a small preview screen and can be set up to print on both sides of a page automatically. EPSON Expression XP – 520 prints great photos and colour graphics. Running costs are on the large side, although not quite so high that we can’t make it a Best Buy. Be mindful, though that this is one of the pricier.
Longboard Surfboards offers maximum flexibility when it comes to performance,” agrees enthusiastically and novice surfers. This style of classic longboard surfboard design offers several features for use in different navigation techniques. Based on its name, this is the longest of all styles of surfboards with a broad platform. The length and width of the ease of new surfers find their center of gravity and greater stability for experienced surfers to perform advanced maneuvers.
Product Description Longboard Surfboards
Hit the beach this summer with this 9 Foot CBC Foam Surfboard from Keeper Sports Products. This surfboard is great for beginners and intermediate surfers because of its “soft top” and the thickness of the board which allows for a stable, smooth ride. Board Dimensions 104″ x 24″ x 4″. Remember- If we make it, it’s a Keeper.
Longboard surfboards are available in different lengths, so be sure to choose the one that best suits your style and level of experience. Novice surfers can feel more comfortable on the short side for a long time. Ten platforms can be cumbersome and awkward to carry and difficult to drive if you are a beginner brand. Also, longboard surfboards are not comfortable in the water. The more proficient you become, the more you can get a card. The pilot can sail to the next level with the longest longboard surfboards and perform maneuvers, such as the nose-up and re-started while enjoying the stability of the long board.
Given the different administrative structures, but also, if you look at the longboard surfboards. A surfboard has compared the quality of fiber epoxy construction. Just like classic longboards surfboards, so that the construction of fiberglass. In support of this type of structure has a wave pattern smooth even with the predictable response. Please note, this kind of card can be very thick, so be sure to support weight under the arm, such as transportation. Epoxy boards offer a lighter material that is more earth friendly than its counterpart in the fiberglass. They are fast and agile in the waves, also provides a great brand. Decline in construction epoxy is that it breaks down more quickly when exposed to direct sunlight and may feel stiff in the water.
What happens if you opt for longboard surfboards made of the perfect combination of fiberglass and epoxy resin? You’ll be the envy of surfers and new veterans. Longboard surfing offered the best of both worlds when it made of NexGen. Highly regarded as the perfect combination of building materials, enjoying the mild sensation of epoxy resin without sacrificing provision and forgiveness found in a table in fiberglass. Longboard was surfing your way to expert level quickly with the smart design!
The HTC One Mini 2 is a large phone that narrowly misses out on being deemed a Best Buy. It hasn’t quite got the impressive list of features found on its bigger brother, the M8, and we would like it to have a faster processor and longer battery life, but it’s a decent option for those looking for a small Android phone.
It’s a scaled down version of the HTC One Mini 2 (mounted hair both regarding size and specification). It has a 4.5-inch screen, runs on Android and offers superfast 4G connectivity. It’s a sleek and stylish phone. The metal finish makes it slightly heavier than other phones of this size, but it does still lend it a premium feel. Its 4.5-inch screen is rather small by today’s standards, but that does mean it’s comfortable to hold in one hand, and your fingers won’t be stretching to reach the far corner of the touchscreen. It is worth noting that some might find the metal finish a little slippery.
HTC One Mini 2
It has the same 720×1,280 resolution screen which is the same as its predecessor. While we were a little disappointed that it didn’t get an upgrade, it still makes text and graphics appear sharp. It’s OK for watching the video, but sadly not the best we found it to be a little grainy and the motion could be smoother. And as with many phones, the display looks faded when you take it outside. The touchscreen is fast and responsive.
It has a 1.2GHz quad-core processor; it’s a little slow and, it won’t suit you if you want to play graphics-heavy games. But if you’re content with browsing the internet and playing the odd puzzle, it will be fast enough.
The works on the latest version of Google’s Android operating system (4.4.2 or KitKat). Android is much easy to use, although it will take a bit of getting used to if you haven’t seen it before. Unlike Apple’s iOS, it lets you customize the different homepages. It also gives you access to millions of apps, books, movies and games from the Google Play store.
HTC One Mini 2
HTC One has overlaid this with its Sense interface, so it looks a little different to Android phones from other manufacturers and has some unique features. The most noticeable addition is BlinkFeed, which pulls together stories you force be interested in from various news sites and updates from your social networks. Drawing on a tile will show you the article, tweet or photo in full-screen mode.
It has two front-facing speakers which provide reasonable call quality. And it’s good for listening to music while on the move, thanks to a decent pair of bundled headphones. We found they produce clear sound with an impressive amount of detail.
Battery life is good it’ll give just under 15 hours of call time, or seven hours of web browsing. That is an improvement on its predecessor but isn’t the best around. It’s also worth noting that the One Mini 2 is a tight unit, which means you won’t be able to replace the battery if it fails.
HTC One Mini 2
HTC has ditched the 4Mp ‘Ultra Pixel’ camera found on the M8 and the original One Mini, and equipped this with a 13Mp resolution auto-focus camera instead. Overall it takes good snaps. One criticism would be the flash, which isn’t powerful enough and makes for dark and slightly grainy photos in low light conditions. It’s acceptable for taking the occasional video too, although you’ll notice there is some stutter with moving subjects.
And finally, it’s good for those who like to take the perfect selfie, thanks to the 5Mp front-facing camera this has a higher resolution than you’d find with many rivals. It’s tricky to insert the SIM card; you’ll need to use your fingernail to prise it open.Is there anything else I should know? Of the 16GB of storage space, just over 10GB is free for use. And unlike the first generation Mini, it comes with a memory card slot, so you can add an extra 128GB of storage if you need to.
That is a stylish phone, with a bright screen and expandable memory. It could be speedier, and we’d like the battery to last a bit longer, but overall it does a good job. If you’re looking for something a little cheaper and don’t mind sacrificing this phone’s good looks, then also consider the more affordable HTC One Desire 610.

The Huawei Ascend Y530 is a reasonable smartphone if you’re on a tight budget. The price (around £90 or from £8 a month on a contract with no upfront fee) is very appealing, and though the features aren’t in the Best Buy league, they’re OK. But the little memory and mediocre camera are the main drawbacks.
The Huawei Ascend Y53 0 is a cheap and cheerful Android smartphone. What’s it like to use? It’s a bit smaller than many new phones. It’s relatively comfortable to hold (the textured rear casing gives some grip) and use one-handed. The 4.5-inch screen is a decent size for watching films or surfing the web, and though the resolution (854×480 pixels) is pretty modest, it’s adequate.
Huawei Ascend Y530
The phone runs on the familiar (to many) Android operating system. Android is easy enough to use (though it will be a shock if you’ve never used a smartphone) and lets you customize the different homepages. That isn’t the latest version (it’s 4.3, not 4.4) but still has the key features, such as Google’s excellent Maps and Mail programs, and lets you download millions of apps, books, films and games from the Google Play store.
Huawei Ascend Y530
Sound quality on calls is OK but dips when there’s loud background noise. Battery life online is above average (we managed almost seven hours from a single charge) but a little less so on calls (we managed just under 11 hours). The battery is detachable, so you can swap in a spare if you run out of power or easily replace it should it develop a fault.
The 5Mp camera is about average for a budget phone. It has auto focus and a LED flash, plus a limited range of camera settings, but the photos it produces are unlikely to set your pulse racing. We also found it easy to obscure the lens when taking pictures (especially in landscape orientation).
The video camera is of a similar standard. It’ll do the job, but the footage it records looks blocky and lacks detail. The Ascend Y530 has a primary forward-facing camera for selfies and video calls.Is there anything I should watch pay as.
Huawei Ascend Y530
There’s only a tiny (4GB) internal memory of which just 1.77GB is available to use. You can boost this by adding a memory card (up to 32GB), but some apps can only do saved on the phone itself. Once the internal memory is full, you’ll need to delete things to make space. Otherwise, the phone won’t work properly. The weak processor and limited RAM means that the phone will struggle to run power-hungry applications (such as games). But web pages open pretty quickly over 3G (the phone isn’t 4G compatible).
Ascend Y530
The headphones have handy controls in the lead but produce a weedy sound. Should I buy it? It’s a good-value option, but if you can afford to spend a bit more, we’d recommend our favorite budget option, the Motorola Moto G.
