Uncut, Uncensored & Unconventional

I hate fake gear reviews. That's why I started filming mine. Then I got it in my crazy head to start asking people if I could interview them about their gear. Before too long, I amassed a giant library of gear reviews.
  
Initially, I started a new site at OutdoorEquipment.com, just featuring this. But soon decided the reviews were better put here, for you.
  
I hope you enjoy and subscribe to my YouTube channel!
