Dakine's 2011 line up of riding gear is looking really top notch and we wanted to share some of the men's line up with everyone and how better to do that than to get one of their riders to stop by with his newest kits.

Dakine is based out of Hood River Oregon and are making real headway with their new clothing line up. Last year they showed us their line up in it's infancy and I'd say it's a teenager now and really finding itself in the industry. Dakine has a lot of real world clothes that riders seem to gravitate to and really want to wear while riding, heck I'm even seeing some racers hang up their pajamas and put on Dakine gear instead for it's clean look.
Gully wakes up from his late night at the What's Next premiere to go over some of the bangers in the Dakine line up with us,
Dakine makes the best packs in the business for shooters, and here's why.
Chances are, whether you ride with it or not, you have a pack. If you ride with your pack, it's essential that you can carry water, some snack food, and a few tools and a spare tube, as well as anything else your non-pack toting buddy is going to need to get out of the woods. That last part is debatable, which is why I request that my buddies bring some cash on the ride, as backcountry spare tubes can go for a pretty penny.
DAKINE, the leader in action sports accessories, is proud to announce that three of its top mountain bikers, Geoff Gulevich, Andrew Shandro, and Thomas Vanderham, have signed-on to ride DAKINE bike clothing in addition to its packs and gloves.

Check inside for a look at the new packs and gloves from Dakine:
Dakine is best known in the mountain bike world for their packs and gloves, but for 2009 they have launched a full line up of clothes for us riders. They have had jerseys in the mix for a few seasons, but now the shorts are following suit and creating some really nice kits. We were able to wrangle up Dakine team riders Geoff Gulevich and Emily Johnston for a fashion photo shoot at the indoor show.
Today in Hood River Oregon, Dakine's Chico Bukovansky was presented a plaque from the Mt Hood National Forest Service for his and Dakine's support in maintaining 150+ miles of trails for multi-users. District Forest Service Supervisor Mike Hernadez gave a very informative speech and announced that the 'Knebel Springs Connector' will now be re-named the 'Dakine' trail.
Fresh Meat is always about the nice new shiny bits that we're trying out or want to show you from around the industry. But what about when we get hungry or need some stuff? Sometimes you're on a road trip and forget things, like gloves. So you go to the local bike shops and you drop your hard earned cash on parts. Here are some of the parts that I've bought on recent trips or seen and thought-hell ya I want/need that for one of my bikes or for me to make my riding more enjoyable. Have a look at the Shift Strike gloves, the Lizard Skin's Charger grips, Dakine's Cross X gloves, North Face's Jacket, Chromag's Seat Post Quick Release, Sombrio's Forensic Glove and of course my Goodyear MTR tires.
Since I wasn’t expecting many gifts for Christmas of 2004 - I decided to be my own Santa and get myself some post-Christmas gifts. So back in February of 2005 I placed a nice order for some Dakine goods: Ordered a few bags, packs and they threw in some gloves, jerseys and decals. So I guess I did get some gifts after all :o) this was my first time using Dakine products and let me tell you that I wasn’t let down.
