They haven't updated the online store in a mad long time, they need to lower the prices of this past years shit and then get all next year's shit up too. I mean, look at Jibij, they have their shit together.
Anyone know what the deal is?

Because I can use paypal when I order from DS, so then I can just order shit without my parents knowing.

I'm sure they are hella busy with a whole bunch of shit, remember ds is directly related with plehouse, not to mention they aren't only a ski shop, but also a skate shop. On top of that they have two shops to run, along with catering to international clients. They got a pretty busy schedule if you ask me.
But ya, they should start updating their site in the next couple months once skiing starts picking up again.

^^ that makes no sence. (what you said does.. but the theory doesnt) if you are such a legit company (2 freestyle sports, 2 shops, and an online shop, you should know your shit. THUS they should be ontop of everything with the knowledge and ability to do this.. they should have the site constantly updated.

But at the same time realize how much money it costs to run and maintain everything d-structure does, two shops, production company, two websites, local events, etc...Now think about how much money is in skiing and rollerblading, and it's probably not as much as you would imagine.
It's not like I know anything I'm saying for a fact, but I'm just trying to make sense of it. I'm sure it's not cheap to have a webmaster constanstly updating the site, especially in the off-season when not many skiers purchase skis + equipment online.
I'm sure they'll get the pre-orders up when the larger movie companies start offering theirs. On the other hand they'd like to promote their own movie exclusively for a while before others, that's just commmon sense.

All thos extra things have two things in common:
1. They cost money
2. They MAKE money for the company.
They wouldnt have the extra shit if it all had to be payed for by the income from one shop, your turn to think about it.
Also, there may not be assloads of money in those sports to the naked eye, but NS has over 80000 memebers that have to buy shit every year. There may not be a lot of prize money going down and maybe its not as much of a big buck industry as other sports, but there is deffinetly eneough money in those two sports to support a company, there aren't many ski shops online remember.
