When the Winter season rolls around and the snow begins to fly people all across western Canada seem to get a feeling of excitement that is hard to recreate in any other way. It is unmistakable and comes to us in a way that is more genetic than anything else. We are born and raise to not only handle the seasons changing but to embrace them and enjoy them as best as we possibly can.

When you earn your stripes by taking whatever Mother Earth throws you way there is a certain balance that comes to you in your mind, body and spirit. This is something that is uniquely Canadian and has made us famous the world over for our heart, our spirit and our determination. It is also something that is envied by people who are not so fortunate as to have been born in this wonderful, beautiful, harsh, unforgiving country of ours.

People like Likka Backstrom, also born in a northern area, clearly sees the benefits of adopting certain mentalities that we are inherently blessed with. So when he went into the offices of Electric Visual to design his newest signature goggles he had some very Canadian influences in mind. For example he knew he needed a large viewing area in order to see all the back country he would be tackling, so he chose the iconic EG2 as his base. Then when it came to putting his personal spin on it he used colors and patterns that go with nearly any kit and will look great under any conditions.

So whether your identity is adopted or natural, do you duty as a Canadian and get into your closest Spareparts store and check out the new Electric EG2 in the Iikka Backstrom pro model. Or head to our website, www.sparepartslife.com where you can see one of the biggest selections of Electric Eyewear anywhere in this great country of ours.
