I love the coverage of the OR show. First and foremost I am a backpacker but being a gear head runs a close second... Very close. 

All gear is great by me. 

I personally want to thank all of you for going out there and taking the time to forward some of the "highlighted" gear and info with us. 

They need to have an OR show in Pittsburgh lol. I would be like a kid in a candy store at one of these.

I think the coverage of past shows has been great. Lots of Photos and videos is always a good idea, though I definitely look for the hard information and specs. Getting a real visual idea of the product is important, and few things are more infuriating that a lack of real spec info. 

I like that the focus is on the new and noteworthy advances in tech and gear.  

I vote for the next one to be in Chattanooga! I mean, its a green city, with a nice big convention center, tgat sits on the Tennessee River, is surrounded by ridges, mountains, and has some of the best whitewater and rock climbing nearby :)

Good suggestions folks!  Alicia and I have been preparing furiously, and this OR looks like it will have a lot of interesting stuff!

Always interested in new gear. If not to purchase just to see whats the new trending ideas.  If we could get links to new company XYZ's web site that would be awesome.  That way we could do all the researching and window shoping our little OCD hearts desire.

Thanxs for all you do!
