I want to tell you that your product is perfect for the activities I'm involved in. I have never been so stoked about a clothing company as I am about Loki. There have been many times that I have launched in nice weather thinking that I wouldn’t need gloves.
It’s always those days that you get way higher and have the potential to go farther then you thought, but have to land because your finger and face can't handle the cold. And with Speed Flying it easy to forget a glove or drop it while getting your camera and other gear ready. B.A.S.E. Jumping is done throughout the year.
I don't usually jump with gloves on but I often find I need them for the long hikes up. I then find I have no where to put them when the time comes to jump, I have even lost a pair on opening shock.

The 3 Peaks 3 Weeks Challenge
The 3 Peaks 3 Weeks Challenge is an annual all-female climbing event which aims to summit three of Africa’s highest peaks in three weeks, raising money and awareness for the three key issues currently facing Africa; environment, education and health.
The climbs of Mt Kenya, Mt Meru and Mt Kilimanjaro aim to raise awareness for these peak issues and to support and encourage grassroots community organisations in Kenya and Tanzania who are focused on environmental, educational and health development.
3 Peaks 3 Weeks is organised in partnership with Save the Rhino International. SRI collects and distributes raised funds on behalf of 3 Peaks 3 Weeks to the three pre-selected organisations in Africa and assist with event management and logistics.
3 Peaks 3 Weeks is about dedication, motivation and inspiring individuals to climb higher and push harder for Africa's future than they ever thought possible.

Ski Mountaineer

Accomplishments:
Multiple first descents in the BC Coast range, all by sled or foot access and climbing. Spent several years on the Freeskiing world Tour with a few top 5 finishes. Several film appearances with Team 13, Blacksmith Productions, Rage Films, and Red Bull Media. For the last few years have been trying to see what is possible with a powerful sled, a strong freeride background, solid mountaineering skills and a lot of motivation. For me, the best part is all about finding the special lines. The hard part is the searching and exploring, figuring out approaches and safe climbing routes, figuring out how not only to get a sled into these places, but how to get it out as well. By the time you are skiing, most of the hard work is already done.
"I have used Loki Outerwear on countless missions in the BC Coast range including a multitude of first descents and I have always been dry and warm. Everything we do up here involves either a long sled ride thru technical terrain and deep snow or a long ski tour. When you are that deep on something as unreliable as a snowmobile and are traveling really light its nice to not worry about staying dry if/when the weather turns."
Favorite Loki:
"The Levity Jacket kept me dry through the worst storms I have ever seen while on Mt St Elias, and the Loki Mask was a great thing to have close at hand. Its reassuring to know that no matter what you drop out there, your mitts and face mask are part of your jacket."
