Isaiah Burkhart

Isaiah Burkhart served in 3rd Battalion 75th Ranger Regiment. Almost four years of my time in 3/75 was spent in the sniper section. In all, I spent over 11 years in military service. I am a firefighter/paramedic and hold a Bachelors of Science in Biology from Oregon State University. When not working, I spend most of my time rock climbing, mountaineering, mountain biking, trail running, and occasionally picking up heavy objects.

What is Tactical?

I was inspired to write on this subject due to recent comments I have seen floating around the web, labels attached to products, and some general dogmatic views on all products labeled tactical. So, what is tactical? When it comes to products, “tactical” has absolutely nothing to do with their appearance, but their functionality in helping accomplish […]

Review: Giro Feature Mountain-Bike Helmet

Review: Giro Feature Mountain Bike Helmet

The Giro Feature mountain bike helmet was designed for the trail/all-mountain rider in mind, but works for all disciplines of riding (unless you require full face protection).

The Giro is light and comfortable enough to go largely […]
