Spyder Boys' Groove Backpack:
Editor's Choice awards don't come easily, but the Groove received Freeskier Magazine's thumbs-up in its inaugural season. Amplify the scene simply by plugging your iPod and turning up the beats. The Groove's front panel is essentially a lightweight amplifier; NXT "exciters" within the front panel throw out clear audio at an impressive volume level. The Groove runs on three AAA batteries, and accepts any MP3, music phone, or music device that uses a headset prong. There's no worries about bringing your Groove into the terrain park or backcountry hut; snow compatible waterproof material keeps your cargo dry.
