first of all...there was a scratch ad where it had a pair of skis and a snowboard falling in love, and it said, 'scratch, when skis meet snowboards'. what the hell rossignol? that is the worst ad ever, period. then, i saw the oakley ad from like 2 years ago where jon is stalling on a chimney. hmmm. fine, so they arent up to date. but the thing is, it's 4 dollars more expensive than other ski mags, and it has old material, and crappy ads.
therefore i think im never buying 2 again.

I don't doubt this, because he asked me if i wanted to come over to his house and gerbil. I insisted that he come over to MY house, since the whole thing seemed weird. As a practical joke, i attached a bucket of water to the top of the door so that when he opened it, I beat him with a mannequin leg.'-Skydaddy

Why would you buy a magazine based on their ads?

Yesterday scientists for Health Canada suggested that, considering the results of a recent analysis that revealed the presence of female hormones in beer, men should take a look at their beer consumption. The theory is that drinking beer makes men turn into women. To test the theory, 100 men were fed 6 pints of beer each within a one hour period. It was then observed that 100% of the men gained weight, talked excessively without making sense, became overly emotional, couldn't drive, failed to think rationally, argued over nothing, and refused to apologize when wrong. No further testing is planned.

sometimes when im running water to wash dishes or something, i think about how lucky i am to have such simple access to running water and how some people will never know such a simple pleasure.

then i let it run for awhile, just because i can.

yeah im a sucker, i bought it from chapters, $9...also, this from the nov. 2003 issue, they had an article on the mikey d and pep crevasse jumping expedition, and at the end, it said, 'catch the trip on the big screen in MSP's latest release 'ski movie III, the front line''.
so yeah, this mag contains rather old material. good material, mind you, but a season late...

I get the mag for free and I love it. The only thing I read outside of school.

2 freeski is the best mag out there. We get old ones because they're imported from Europe, and because Europe is a little slower on their shit. Sick photography, interesting articles, well written. Yeah I (heart) 2 Freeski.

I bought a french one while in europe (i don't speak french). I recognize that gay rossi ad, but shit, it's just an ad. I liked it because it had some different photos that didn't look like they were just taken from some movie. And I needed my fix for skiing literature.
