I may have cross-country skiied in high school, but the slopes scare me. If you're anything like me, you'll prefer the snow in the safety of your own home. That's why Hammacher Schlemmers' Virtual Reality Snowboard is totally my thing.

All you do is put your foot through the strap of the board, place the wireless headset on your head, and you're ready to perform cool tricks on a snow-capped mountain. You'll experience sound effects and full-color 3D graphics. The virtual reality game features multi-level play for competing against other boarders, as well as a volume control and automatic scoring and timekeeping.

The board and headset are made of ABS plastic and include earbud headphones. Purchase the Virtual Reality Snowboard for $59.95.
