DJI Mavic Pro Drone ($999)

2017 is the year for me and drones, I’ve been more involved with the community and starting in January I’ll be starting a YouTube channel with my drone work. Last year I wanted the DJI Inspire 1, which is still an incredible drone. This year, I’ve been wanting something more compact, and the DJI Mavic Pro offers just that. With stunning 4k, strong base, and a beautiful app, it’s the perfect drone to get started with.

Sony a6500 Camera ($1398 – body only)

Sony’s newest mirrorless camera is about to hit the market. This beauty packs a punch for how little it is.

  • 24.2MP APS-C Exmor CMOS Sensor
  • UHD 4k Video
  • 5-Axis SteadyShot inside Stabilization

And also, true autofocus in movie mode. Starting price is $1,400 and at that price you’re getting a lot.

2x Acer R240HY 23.8 IPS Monitors ($119.99)

I love borderless monitors. With the speculation of the iPhone 8 being possibly borderless, my world could be all borderless. In terms of casual gaming and excellent color and video editing, these monitors are very inexpensive, light weight, IPS / LCD, and borderless.

Boosted Board (Start at $999)

We’re talking the fast skateboard that can get you around town and kind of look cool doing it. Boosted Boards are pretty awesome, great battery life, long board type frame, can handle most street terrain, and not have to worry about parking or spending high amounts every month on insurance.

Stanley Cup Tickets

Now my Sharks made the finals last year, an awesome thing to see on TV. But being there would be such a crazy even more hyped experience. Now will the Sharks make it back to the cup finals this year, we’ll just have to see. Either way I’d love to see playoff hockey in action as it’s something I’ve never done yet. Playoffs are always more intense than the season.
