Yup, I agree. Fresh is the place to go.


I heard the Mountain Magic knows a thing or two about boot fitting though.

come on, we're not that bad are we? although i must admit, if your a resident in these tourist towns, it must be annoying to have your mountains invaded upon year after year! is that how you guys feel?

I'm cool with the Aussies, for the most part are like Canadians. The fucking Brits with their snowblades and jester hats, who then insist on getting drunk and singing on Banff ave at night.

well hopefully we show some respect to your town when we invade it annually.  you guys must be pretty devo'd about the whole rcr thing hey?

i know i was.  the three lane set up they had last time i was there was incredible.  going to miss it deeply.  especially seeing as though ive never been a fan of the shine.  too open for my liking

hows your seasons going anyway? much riding for you locals?

A few years back I got some boots from Monods, and I'm not sure who did it specifically but they did a terrible job of boot fitting. Gave me a boot that was way too wide and long for my foot. I had less knowledge about boots then so I bought them, but they could have done a far better job.
