My "Seal" of Approval

I would like to introduce a new review system for the my gear review blog…..a star rating if you will. It seems that I will forever be known for the hilarious race picture from my first tri. I happily mock myself and proclaim the “parachute jacket” as my seal of approval!


  • 1 parachute jacket: Not worth your time or money….avoid at ALL costs!


  • 2 parachute jackets: Use only as a last resort when no other options are available


  • 3 parachute jackets: Meh…..I could take it or leave it


  • 4 parachute jackets: Pretty good, I would probably buy it and may recommend it to a friend, but not the best eva!!!!


  • 5 parachute jackets: OMG…you’ve gotta freakin’ try this. Quite possibly the best eva!!!!
