Rossignol and Dynastars host company Quiksilver, is moving the east coast operations out west which according to the newspapers means the loss of 70 jobs... so how is this going to affect Dynastar athletes/reps. etc. ? what is everyones take on how this will affect the scene 'round the motha fuckin east coast?

Thats how we roll in Utah... don't worry... there will be more than enough people to fill those jobs... skiing out here is WAY bigger than on the eastcoast. There will be no shortage of qualified people.



We gonna whack it til the wheels fall off.

this really fucks those 70 people over. most of those 70 are in those jobs because they live and breath skiing and with their unemployment they will go out looking for other ski industry jobs which wont be there.

I don't know where i'm going or where i'll end up but i'm going fast.

Many VT skiers get their first sponsorships from D* or rossi because the people who work for these companies such as reps are at the mountains most days and they see the kids throwing down. With the loss of exposure to these people i bet you will see a lot less sponsorship in VT

I don't know where i'm going or where i'll end up but i'm going fast.

hey bigkstyle or whatever, there are just as many qualified people on the east coast as there is on the west. and of course skiing is bigger out west, you have more space.

^i know right, like, just put some of them on the ice in maine on a shitty day after the trail has been scraped off by snowboarders for 7 hours, when you fall on that, you go all the way to the botom or what ever is at the bottom

totaly, tons of west coasters come to VT with a huge ego, thinking they can dominate any thing someone puts infront of them... but the truth is they just arn't that good, skiing ice is something you need to know how to do, and those fool busters from out west just can't do it.

Little boys... i never said that people out east AREN'T as qualified... i said that there are plenty of people here that can run the business just as well as it was run out east. Relax kids.
