[jp]DAKINEとのパートナーシップが決定してほぼ1年。ついに“モノ”が届きました。ymkn、Seth、Brad、DanのMTBガイドの面々はバックパック、ジャージ、グローブ等々を受け取りました。DAKINEのバックパックにはハイドレーションパックが付いているので、これでカビ臭い古いものともお別れです。ご存知の通りDAKINEはバックパック、バック、グローブ等それぞれのスポーツでベストな製品を提供しています。個人的には自分も日本に来る前にDAKINEでデザイナーとして働いた経験もあり、社内の製品に対する信頼度はかなり高いことも知っています。ゲストの使用率も非常に高いですが、MTBに限らずスノーボード製品も充実しているので、ぜひチェックしてみて下さい。[/jp][en]We have been working on getting a partnership with DAKINE worked out for a while now and today the product got here. Each of our main MTB guides YMKN, Seth, Dan and Brad each got a new Hydration pack, Jersey, Gloves and some other good stuff. We are stoked to be partnered with DAKINE who makes the best sports packs, bags, gloves and accessories that we know of. I personally use to work for them before I moved to Japan and have always believed in their products and they back their great gear with an amazing warranty. Please check them out if you need some bike or snowboard accessories.[/en]
