With it's high price, complicated logistics, and language barriers, planning a trip to the distant Patagonia can feel extremely daunting. Many people put an eighteen day trip to the end of the world on their bucket list or Pinterest board and it haunts them for years as they wait for enough money or a free schedule. Sure, there may seem like a lot of obstacles, but when we’re talking about watching the sunrise hit the towers of Torres del Paines, we believe it’s worth it.
We're not careless, or some modern traveling hippies. Heck, we’re simply a group of social workers, marketing directors, nannies and construction workers, but we believe Patagonia’s awesomeness is accessible to anyone who wants it bad enough.

Mounting your own disc snowboard bindings lets you fine-tune adjustments for a perfect ride. We show you how to determine your lead foot, position your bindings on the board and then install them. Shop REI’s selection of snowboard bindings at http://www.rei.com/c/snowboard-bindings.
Transcript:
Mounting your own snowboard bindings let's you fine tune adjustments for a perfect ride. You'll need a number three Phillips head screwdriver and the hardware that came with your bindings. First you have to figure out which foot goes at the front of your board. This is called your lead foot. Let yourself fall forward or have someone gently push you. Whichever foot you catch yourself with is likely your lead foot and will go at the front of your board. You can tell which end is the tip by the direction of the logo.
Before you mount your bindings, you and the decide on your stance width, or the distance between your bindings. A slightly wider stance often makes for a more stable ride, while a narrower stance makes for faster edge to edge transitions. If your board indicates its center mounting position, that's usually a good place to start. If you don't see this indicated, use the set of holes in the middle of the group. Remember, you can always adjust your stance width later if you find the center mount is not right for you.
Mount the binding for your lead foot first. You can tell which binding is which by their curve, just like your boots. Also, bindings always buckle on the outside of your foot. Remove the cushioning bed and set it aside, but leave the section under your toe in place. Now center your binding over the holes you'll use and place the disc on top. Make sure that the long slots are facing the same direction that your feet will go. Next you need to set your binding angle. If you don't already know your favorite angles, it's best to start with your lead foot set 15 degrees forward. Again, you can always adjust this angle later. Each mark represents three degrees, so line up the arrow with the 15 degree tick mark. Make sure you choose the mark that points your binding toward the tip of the board and not the tail. Next, lightly insert the screws and washers diagonally in a start pattern to keep the screws straight.
Once you have all the screws in, put your boot in the binding to make sure it's centered over the board. The goal is to reduce or eliminate toe and heel drag as you turn. It's especially important to make sure your toes don't hang over too far. When it's centered, remove your boot and tighten the screws until they're snug. Make sure not to overtighten and strip the screws. Finish up by replacing the cushioning bed.
Now you can repeat the process on your back foot. Your back foot should be set at a slight backward angle. Try six degrees. Again, make sure the binding is pointing toward the tail. To recap, determine your lead foot and start with that binding. Loosen up the binding for your lead foot at 15 degrees forward. Make sure your boot is centered over the board and tighten the screws. Repeat the process for your back binding at six degrees back.
Waxing your snowboard is the best way to protect the base and keep you gliding fast over snow. In this video, we give you a quick, step-by-step guide to waxing your snowboard at home. Shop REI’s selection of snowboard tuning equipment at http://www.rei.com/c/snowboard-tuning-and-tools
Transcript:
Waxing your board regularly is the best way to protect it and keep it performing at it's peak. You'll need clean towels, rubbing alcohol, your favorite wax, a plastic scraper, a set of brushes, and a waxing iron. Because the iron you use at home could burn the wax or your base, it's best to use a specifically designed waxing iron. Place your board on your vice. If you don't have a vice you can use a couple stacks of books to balance it. Make sure your bindings are tucked out of the way. Use rubbing alcohol and a clean towel to prepare the base for wax. If your base is visibly dirty, brush it off with a wire brush before using the alcohol. As always, make sure you brush, wax, and scrape from tip to tail.
Heat up your iron until it's just warm enough to melt the wax. Then drip a zigzag line of wax up and down the board. If the wax begins to smoke the iron is too hot. Let it cool before starting again. Work the wax into the ski from tip to tail, and make sure it reaches the edges. If it doesn't, add more wax. Keeping your air moving at an even speed is key. You should see a trail of molten wax about 3 to 5 inches behind the iron. If you move too fast the wax won't fully penetrate into the base. If you're too slow you could burn or blister the base material. After three or four passes with the iron, you should feel warmth through the top sheet. Let the whole board cool completely back to room temperature.
Once the board is cooled use a plastic scraper at a 45 degree angle to scrape off the excess wax. Use long overlapping strokes with firm, even pressure, and move from side to side to cover the whole base. Because most boards are slightly cupped, you may need to flex the scraper to get to the wax in the middle. You know you're done scraping when you're not getting any more wax shavings. You'll want to remove the wax from the sidewalls and edges as well. Make sure to use the short end of the scraper so you don't dull the scraping ends. Next comes the brushing. The base of your board has tiny channels called structure which move water out as you ride. Brushing clears the wax from the structure. Make several full-length tip to tail passes using your nylon brush. Use good even pressure and keep brushing until you're no longer seeing wax dust coming off.
Finish up with a good polish with your horsehair brush. The more passes you make the better the result. You can't brush too much. To recap, start with a clean base. Spread wax thoroughly over the whole base. Scrape the extra wax off, and finish up with your brushes.
I tried to do an entire backpacking trip for $200 or less! Over the course of ten years working in the outdoor industry, I’ve had access to affordable, high-quality gear and been able to test and ask questions from the experts around me before choosing to buy. I’m so grateful for this experience, but I know that for many people, backpacking and hiking can be quite an investment. I challenged myself to start from square one, acquire all my backpacking gear and take a trip - all for under $200! If you have an REI near you where you can rent gear, I highly recommend that. $200 is enough to take an amazing backpacking trip with great gear if you have access to REI rentals, but for this challenge I decided to see how far I could get without renting anything. Watch the video to see how that turned out... :) I hope you enjoy my $200 budget backpacking adventure!

Every snowboarder gets some base damage at some point. Big holes that expose the core usually need to be repaired at a shop, but smaller scrapes and gouges can easily be fixed at home.

Everyone gets some base damage at some point. Big holes that expose the core usually need to be repaired by a shop equipped to weld in new base material, but smaller scrapes and gouges can easily be fixed at home. You'll need clean towels, base cleaner, rubbing alcohol, a metal scraper and a P-tex candle. You might also need a wire brush and a razor blade.
The repair will work best on a clean base. Start by using your scraper to remove any extra base material from around the gouge. Stubborn spots may need a razor. Brush off any dirt, debris or built up wax. As always, make sure you brush and scrape from tip to tail. P-tex won't stick well to a wax base so use base cleaner around the scrape to remove wax from the area. After a couple minutes the base cleaner will have done its job and cleared the base of wax. Now you can use rubbing alcohol and a cleaning towel to remove residual base cleaner.
Light the P-tex candle over your scraper to keep it from dripping on your work area. As it heats you may need to relight it a couple times until it's hot enough to drip regularly. Hold the candle as close as possible to the gouge without letting it touch. If it's to high the P-tex will be dirtier and may splash off your base. If it's to close the flame may burn your base. Let it drip in until the hole is completely filled. You can use your metal scraper to sharpen the candle when it starts to droop, and of course, never cross a lit candle over your skin. When all the gouges are filled, stub out the candle on your scraper and set it aside to cool. Keep in mind that it will stay hot for quite a while. It's normal for the repair to look bumpy and uneven at this point.
Once the base is cooled you can use a metal scraper to remove the excess P-tex for a smooth, flush finish. You can also check for any low spots that you may have missed. Just repeat the process to fill them in. To recap, clean the base and remove extra base material from around the gouge. Drip P-tex into the hole and allow it to cool completely. Once it's cooled, use a metal scraper to remove extra P-tex and create a smooth finish. Once the base is finished, it's time to give it a good wax.
