Hi Folks,
Try as I might to avoid it, the Snow Peak tractor beam may soon have ahold of me. I have been nosing around the SP website - using an iPad Pro - and am having trouble shopping. The vast majority of the items I click on display the product pictures, but not the item description or pricing. Am I missing something? Is this stuff so special that I should just submit proof of funds with an offer for the item I want ??

I answered my own question. The SP website displays all images and information when accessed from a computer using full sized display monitors, but not from an iPad.

I sent a message last year and need to follow-up. I unfortunately broke my mine while cleaning it. I have purchased 3 other stones on amazon trying to find one that will work. I need to put some more effort into finding a correct fit. Its tough, the SP one is smaller size and thin with a ridge that allows the grabber to holf onto. One stone i had was too smooth, another too thick...still looking...

I'd love to see a scan of the old 2008 snow peak items. Especially the old IGT stuff.
They used to sell stuff sacks "barrel bags" made for the IGT items (1U, 2U, etc....). I always wanted to see what bags were supposed to go to which items.
I flew out to Brooklyn NY for the Grand Opening of Snow Peak's newest store!

hmm…I think I know what you are experiencing. I too like to drool from time to time at the Snow Peak goodness displayed on their website. I’m using an iPad Mini. I find that when I click on an item photo on the general catalogue pages in order to take a closer look at that item, the first thing that pops up on the item specific page is an enlarged photograph of the initial “catalogue” photo that first attracted my attention. If there are more than a couple of photos of the item, scrolling with my finger just flips through the item photos but doesn’t scroll the page to the pricing and details. With the Mini I just have to make sure my scrolling finger is waaay off to the side of the page before I start scrolling and that’ll scroll the page up and down rather than just the photo section. I think the problem is the majority of the item photos are shot on a white background and the webpages also have an exact matching white background. It’s hard to determine where the border between the photo section of the page is and the actual page itself. Because of this it’s just a simple matter of where your scrolling finger ends up on the webpage as to whether you’re scrolling the page or the photos. Could it be this simple? That’s my experience with the Mini. I haven’t tried it on a Pro. YMMV.
