BradFiAusNzCoCaCrimewave by Crystal Castles…. Came on in a playlist and it’s giving me a major flashback to a ski movie segment. Can someone help me out??
RparrI have never in my life experienced shinbang. I have no idea what it feels like
nobody has. it was all a big marketing ploy by the executives over at full tilt. now they all have yahts, pop bottles with models, and have fuck you money. they disbanded to k2 to avoid the legal troubles.
GayWolf420The XT3 140's look ridiculous but that boot sounds awesome. But we don't need the eyesore 80s totally rad bro eyesore colorways. Midnight blue looked way better on those.
This seems like the general trend for 130+ flex boots. You NEED to let people know that your boots are stiff as fuck. 120 boots get the gray/black understated look

The Salomon blue is a nice shade for their stiffer boots. Noticeable but not too flashy.
I have some ideas about this season with our parks and with the rail jam. Hopefully there are some cool rails that were built during the offseason and people who are good at driving cats. Granby Ranch needs to come back to the old days.

fredyferlGonna start doing street spots history videos. Filming the first one tomorrow, excited to finally start, had the idea for a while
will this include snowboarding as well? Always like seeing what boarders have done on spots. Everytime I send my snowboard friends street clips from skiers I always get a reply of a snowboarder hitting the same spot.

I want to include snowboard tricks also, a lot of the time for a spot a snowboarder will have it it first and then a skier will hit it the next year. I just don't want to make skiers look unoriginal, even though I think it's the case sometimes as we have the option of copying snowboarders, where snowboarders don't really do this
yo dawgs was cleaning my room and decided to keep my skis in here, they've always been in the garage before. might be a dumb question but is there anything I should know? my room gets very humid in the summer altho I got a dehumidifier, and it's like underground and no windows lol ;n; idk like should they be in here or wut
also lowk did not clean mine from last spring, can I just wipe them down with a wet paper towel and call it chill?

My skis have been chillin against my wall for like 6 months and they seem fine. Just don’t store your skis clipped together during the off season cause it can mess up the camber

There’s really nothing wrong with them being clipped together. That doesn’t do anything to the camber. Ideally you don’t want them strapped together under pressure which can put way more compression on the camber pockets.

clean em and throw a thick wax on them and let it sit and absorb into the pores of the base. hit it with a scrape right before skiing them.
Just bought plane tickets to go skiing out west for the first time in my life. I'm unbelievably excited, is mid December a good time to go to Keystone? I'm tagging along on a trip with some friends so its already planned, just wondering what to expect.

Are you going to be at Sugarloaf this year at all? I've met big 1337 and feel like I need to ski with you

they will for sure have a decent amount of run open and top to bottom skiing. they got a new gm/coo and the emphasis on the parks will be a roll of the dice this year but i would imagine that they will have some sort of setup but its not gonna be like the ranger park they had in 2011 which was soooo sick for early season/low snow years. another toll of the dice will be how much snow we get then.
keystone its self is pretty sleepy as far as the town goes. the goat is pretty sick i guess. would recommend getting out and about in the county as the rest is built up for sure. breck will have the best night life just take the free bus there and uber back or something. dillon and silverthorne keep growing snd have a ton of food options. friscos a sweet town as well and they have ten mile music hall too. any trip with friends will be fun though!
Yeah keystone will be decent at that time. I skied there December 5th with my dad last year and they already had a decent amount open. Only lifts that weren’t open were Bergman, Wayback and Outback. You’ll have fun for sure. Maybe I’ll see you out there! I once bumped into @partyandBS randomly at keystone.

Keystone is the best early season skiing in CO imo. They open in like a month

Praying you get to go ski in the west during spring one day

Nice congrats. Just got my tickets bought for my Jan CO trip. Can’t wait to get back out there.
I’m most excited to try out the new mogul skis I got. Always been curious what they’re like. More camber than I’ve ever seen on a ski but also not super stiff.
Got watch the Canadian team trying out their new mogul skis down here at Valle Nvado

Woody.Acting like Nick geopper didn’t go to windells. World class ski academy
Yeah I honestly don't care if he did or didn't I just thought it looked funny on paper, also I looked in to "cork tech" and that shit looks like a pyramid scheme lol
Went to the level1 show in Seattle last night. Lineup was gas and met Parker White. Colby Stevensons proof was fucking insane, ender went STUPID. Probably one of my favorites from the showing. Stand corrected was absolutely savage. Same with delirium. Crazy work. Sammy C's Project wasn't finished but what was there is a cinematic masterpiece as usual. Amazing experience. Deff going back next year.
Anyone ever tried a heel harness like they sell for hard boot snowboarding? My ankle is really narrow and I’m weary to spend money on a zip fit again since it didn’t fit the first time and I don’t have anywhere to try them on.
FruitBootProhe still learned his fundamentals lapping a midwest hill park lol
Sure he learned how to hit rails there but acting like he’s this Midwest born and raised Olympic level skier when he paid 70k a year for a ski academy is mad funny

He was literally born and raised in Indiana and had dubs before he even moved out west to attend Windells, which by the way, he did not pay for since he got a full ride there.
Nobody's pretending anything, the story is as good as it sounds and if you wanna hate on him, hate on him for reasons that make sense, like call him corny or hate on his style or something.
Not trying to harass you or sound like I'm glazing but the kid worked his ass off and it's annoying that ppl still try to find ways to discredit it. If it was as easy as going to world class academies, I'd love to see Jed Waters, Garrett Whaley, Bennie Osnow, Gnoza brothers, Young Snow, Ryan Funke, Brolf, Ben Bodett and other dudes X Games / Olympic medals.

^^if you’re riding solo it’s pretty easy gets a little bumpy in spots and you’re hauling ass. Probably about 2.5 minutes up. You gotta wait till it stops up top. One person kinda holds it a lets the other people off. Which can be sketchy. Helps to be good skiing switch cuz you sorta have to back down and out of the way while the one person holds the thing until everyone is out of the way. You can get a shit ton of laps in and traverse over to some for real terrain fast and easy
