Yep, it is soon Christmas and you and I do not need to work. Great! I will stay at home, read books and go skiing and snowboarding few times. I will have a long vacation, almost two weeks. It is about one week for Christmas and I have not found all the presents. I have discovered different products in Amazon and in our local stores but I am not done yet. I found many interesting Christmas gift ideas and I decided to share those with you, because you might be in a similar situation; looking for the last minute gifts. Oh, also remember to check out my previous Christmas presents ideas!

Christmas Gift Idea #1: Warren Miller’s Storm DVD

Every skier and snowboarder loves to watch DVD’s. Warren Miller’s DVD’s are great and this one definitely rocks. It is a freeride movie that brings some of the best mountain sport athletes to awesome places, such as British Columbia and Antarctica. Storm is a DVD that for sure would not be a disappointing present.

Christmas Gift Idea #2: Snowboarding Magazine Subscription For One Year

Skiing is great and snowboarding rocks. If you or someone in your family is into snowboarding, a one-year subscription of Snowboarding magazine could be a great present. The good point with magazine subscriptions is that they last more than just one day. In case of Snowboarder you get nine issues, which is like nine presents :) Check out Snowboarder magazine subscription! It is a good magazine and right now it seems to be very cheap!

Christmas Gift Idea #3: Heatmax Hand and Body Warmer

Have you been freezing in mountains? It really feel annoying. Heatmax hand and body warmers provide a quick help in case you start freezing. These are a pretty good and valuable present for skiers and snowboarders. If you start freezing, you just place the warmer to the freezing are and it starts warming you. I have used these since 1995 or something and I really like them.

Christmas Gift Idea #4: A Knitting Beanie

This is something women like, a beanie. I like this type of beanies and I purchased a pretty similar one for my wife. I am not sure if she likes it, but I hope so.. Anyhow, I recommend this beanie for women as a present. If you are looking for a present for your wife, check out this beanie, a valuable and long-lasting Christmas present.

Yeps, these were my four additional Christmas gift ideas. Take a look at my Previous Christmas present recommendations as well if you have not done it yet. I wish you a merry Christmas and nice time with your family. Soon it is time to take it relaxed and enjoy the Christmas, but first the presents..

  1. Take the beanie a step further and get one that protects your head like a helmet, but still looks sweet! I got this from their website: Utilizing the incredible new StructUre and d3o technologies, Ribcap is designed for athletes that prefer not to wear a helmet, but would still like to protect themselves. d3o and StructUre are revolutionary new materials that are soft and flexible during normal use, but upon impact their molecules lock together, stiffening the material and absorbing shock! The material then softens again immediately following impact! By combining a wool cap with these materials, Ribcap makes you look good while providing you with excellent protection!


  2. Yeah, makes sense. Thanks for the tip, Jeremy!
