so believe it or not the loft shop is getting overran with so much freeski stuff. this year alone we are adding 4frnt, line (hard and softgoods), k2 twins, oakley outerwear/goggles, helly hansen, giro, (better) roxy (for you girls). shits looking amazing. if anyone has any questions about products or anything. feel free to post them in here.

hey sorry its been a few days since i've posted, i've been out on knee surgury. i'll check everything price wise once i go into work again.

Joy, I don't know why the only all female ski company that sponsers so many up and coming girl park rats, and constantly changes their skis to keep them at the best technology and quality rubs you the wrong way, but hey to each their own

Brian, the fujatives should be much cheaper than vertical drop just because they use MSRP where as the loft shop uses MAP pricing. also they'll be 10% off at the swap. and buying the skis at the loft shop gives you a discount on your mounting price if you choose to mount down in the tech shop

Ski_Always, i haven't had a chance to look at the dakine gloves yet, i've seen them but just haven't gone through the boxes. i can tell you we have some more sick level gloves this year. but i'm sure we'll have a ton of great dakine products because they are super good quality. and as always, if you see something you like online but we don't have it, we can special order it for you.

And Casey, i'll try to remember to check that pricing for the giro helmet shipping once i get back

in my opinion they represent womens skiing the wrong way. i understand they sponsor burke and i was real bummed when i heard she left volkl for roxy. and yes they are constructed by dynastar so they can't be horrible skis. but they are going to attract the wrong type of girls into freeskiing. girls who ski because the graphics are "cute" and because it's what their boyfriend does and because dad can afford their wicked expensive setup. i LOVE to see girls progressing and stepping it up, but nothing revs my engine more than girls skiing for any reason other than they love it and nothing makes them happier. sorry i'm going into a rant. i'll cut myself off. i think i am the only female in here, so i apologize once again. and as you said ben, to each their own.

Iv got to get my skis remounted so rough estimate how much would it cost at the swap to take off old binders, fill holes, mount new binders, fit to boots.

lsquared, we don't have a lot of oakley outerwear considering this is our first year with them but we can always special order

i.liquor, any company that will come will be at the swap. we tell every rep about it and its up to them if they come. usually the bigger companies will come, but sometimes the smaller ones will come to get their products out there

ski_always, i can't remember the exact price but it should be no more that 35-45 dollars

I heard that the loftshop was going to have LINE products. Is this true? And will you have ski tshirts/hats, ski movies, and magazines? that would be sick as hell.

Buttered Toast,

Absolutely! I'm super stoked on all the LINE products we have this year. It took some convincing, but I got my bosses to bring in LINE. We currently have the invaders and shadows in, and we should be getting in some chronics, celebrity's, and possibly anthems. And don't forget you can always special order through us to ease the delivery process and put the burdon of shipping on us. We also have the "i am a skier" T, and the pollard T. and the Ape hoody. But that's just our line products, we also have a huge amount of t-shirts, hoodies, and accesories of all your favorite twin tip companies.

as always we also will be getting in ski movies, we haven't ordered them yet because i haven't had time to sit down with my boss and discuss which movies we are going to order. Don't worry though, because i'll be sure to get all the faves for this year. And i also won't forget about the boarders, i'm really excited about the new mackdawg productions film this year.

As for magazines, we have actually gotten in all our freeskier shipments this year instead of last when we just got octobers issue. So if you don't have a subscription and you need a place to get all the past issues, you can get them here.

lsquared,

Regretfully we won't be getting salomon helmets this year. we do have an account open with salomon because we do sell a few of their bindings each year, so possibly we could order it for you. Helmets have just recently become a hot ticket item with park riders where as before it was only racers and families that purchased them. so we are just starting to bring in more helment companies. this year we'll have giro, red, boeri, and marker. but in future years to come we'll start adding more to the list

i think i'll wait a while to try to add bern to the list. they've only recently been stepping up their game such as making the baker an actual helmet instead of a hardhat. i realize people like the look of it but there are so many other tried and true brands.

also for people who aren't afraid to rock a burton brand, i overlooked that we also have R.E.D in

I'd just give a call before you plan on going. There's someone who is always there pretty much. i left around 11:30 last night and there were still workers there. so just call and make sure someone is there. Neabz up there can contest that the loft shop is packed to the brim so were not actually ready for a huge crowd to come it, but a few people is fine. you just have to mind the mess
