Posted by admin to Outdoor Sports, Silver Seeker Metal Detector on 2008-03-27, 10:45:45

Silver Seeker (SS1) is a user-friendly metal detector for any weather condition, easily detecting precious metals like silver and gold buried up to two feet deep.

It was once upon a time that Black Beard the pirate ravaged the waters of the Caribbean upon the decks of the Queen Anne’s Revenge, a fast and sleek slave ship commandeered for the purpose of the pirating trade, but quarter was given to those ships that surrendered and a code of honor was set forth.

Where did he hide his treasure? Did his crew spend it all? Did they simply die in the pursuit of even more bloodshed after going into retirement for so many months only to die in a hopeless battle among the inlets of Ocracoke Island NC, flat broke?

Or is there still hidden treasure below the sands of our very shores? Chests of bloodstained and stolen Spanish coin? Pearls and Jewels?

No one knows for sure where these reckless souls may have stored their wealth if even they ever did see such riches, but in truth, the real fascination with searching for buried treasure is in the excitement of searching, not the find itself.

It need not cost us years of archeological research, nor many days perhaps even months of studying navigational charts or maps to go on a treasure hunt, each find has a story, and the story itself is worth every second of anticipation, every moment of that adventure.

This professional metal detector by Bounty Hunter, detects up to two feet deep, the waterproof search coil will submerge seven inches underwater, even saltwater.

It has two audio tones, discriminates between useless metals and precious ones as well as paperclips and coins or even different kinds of precious metals.

When we look for lost pirate treasure in the sands of North Carolina or across the stretches of old gold mining ghost towns in the far west this summer, a metal detector can really set the mood for adventure and story.

This metal detector is easily settable to certain frequencies for terrain that comes with mixed mineral traces, has a headphone jack for private listening, requires two nine volt alkaline batteries, measures 20.5 x 6 x 9 and ships at 1 lb.

Silver Seeker metal detector is the perfect tool for fun in the sun, even if all we find are old chains and anchors, or fools gold, the fun is not just in what could have been found but also the story each and every find has to tell, be it an old piece of rigging or pickaxe, arg!

The Bitterroot dome tent is made by one of the most reliable names in the outdoor industry with a 7 foot high center and 11 by 11 feet of ground space, the dome design giving it the impression of being larger on the inside and smaller on the outside.

A total of 121 square feet, Bitterroot will fit two queen-sized airbeds side by side, and should prove more than comfortable with extra leg-room for 4 adults or 6 children.

This simple assembly is really fast with two people and comes with shock-corded fiberglass poles and a ring/pin system weighing a total of 25 pounds.

Be sure that eitherone person just carries the Bitterroot or you are moving around in a vehicle, because 25 pounds is about all a person is going to hike around with for any given distance, unless they are intentionally putting on extra pack-weight for sports endurance.

This is more of a summer tent, (great for keeping flying bugs and crawling critters away) but it should hold up in late spring or really early fall as well.

Heavy winds and heavy rains are going to really damage this thing though, so the more punishment you put it through the faster it will need to be replaced, but if well kept, and used properly, this tent could be with your family for a whole generation.

If you are taking an outdoor road trip down Route 66 with the family, or camping with the Scouts, Eureka Bitterroot six person dome tent is spacious, made from durable quality that will hold up through three seasons, keep you free from mosquitoes and most importantly; keep you dry if properly used.

Ripstik Caster Board was designed for snowboarding-like action on the street, a snowboard/skateboard hybrid that enables snowboard like curves on smooth, skateboard surfaces. You rip this stick!

The ultimate in downhill skateboarding, Ripstik Caster Board is a snowboard on paved slopes. Ever felt the gush of wind in your face as your adrenaline was pumping while speed is kicking in? Your board is going faster and faster without breaks down pristine peaks of unending white snow…then suddenly, summer arrives

In summer, snowboarders get out their skateboards, and it just isnt the same feeling. Ripstik Caster Board does what the first skate boards offered surfers in the off season, a way to get close to that same feeling of adrenaline, on the asphalt.

This sleek performer comes with a pivoting deck, 360-degree caster trucks, spiked traction pads, kick tail and nose, concave deck design, 76mm polyurethane wheels and precision ABEC-5 bearing casters to put up with far higher pressures than skateboard bearings ever handle.

Supporting up to 220 pounds, for children 8 years of age and up, it is important that you use protection with Ripstik Caster Board, especially around the palms, knees, elbows and head, as it will allow your body to stay healthier longer, with less risks from injury.

In the end, how much protection you use is a personal choice that each person needs to make on their own, but as any expert in adrenaline sports will tell you, you only get one pair of knees, and recovery takes longer as youget older, so be nice to your body, please.

The smarter kids will protect themselves while still having fun, the not so smart kids on the other hand, will probably spend most of their time getting hurt instead of getting those adrenaline rushes, and where is the fun in getting hurt?

Ripstik Caster Board comes with a how-to-ride DVD that will make it faster to learn, and start carving up those downhill slopes in the city, in fact, the carving motion propels the Ripstik forward even uphill or on level surfaces as needed.

Measuring 33.5″ long x 10″ wide and weighing 8 lbs, Ripstik Caster Board comes with a 90-day warranty and should always be used with proper protection to avoid unnecessary injury (wear helmet and pads for safety, please).

Snowboard in summer on the asphalt with Ripstik Caster Board, the latest in downhill skateboarding that gives you the feel of a snowboard.
