I want to buy my husband the best hiking maps as a gift. He is an avid hiker and is always talking about how great it would be to have some of those. I don't know a lot about the options available out there, and I am hoping for a little advice backed by experience.

I would like to know if there is an warmth rating for the Pinetree gloves. Does anyone know where I can find this info?

I'm interested in the techniques used to rate snowboards. Any info to share on this topic?

Is the Elastic super long longboard surfboard wood or glass?

I would like to know the materials generally used in the snorkeling equipments. Unfortunately, I am allergic to silicone and need to make sure the strap around the neck won't be a problem for me.
