Hello, the ACL topic has been beaten to death but I haven't found a satisfactory answer to this specific question so I am returning to the dreaded newschoolers board to see if anyone has useful advice. I did my ACL last spring and my 9 months will be up on March 2nd. I normally ski about 50%...

Noticed this at the start of the season and have skied it a fair bit, almost certainly was like this at the end of last season too. 2nd time I've had this happen, first time didn't notice it until a shop refused to remount. Because of this I didn't stress it, also homie told me it was common and...

Wtf, how does it only have 200 views after a whole day. Such a banger, don't let it get buried

Does anyone know if there's any preseason hike parks that get set up at any of the north van mountains? I don't have any pvc myself but I'm always down to shovel. If anyone wants to give something a go tomorrow or sometime this week lmk!

I just moved to Vancouver to attend UBC (2nd year but 1st year actually here due to covid) and I know no one. Looking for fellow NSers in the area to mtb/hike/do other cool stuff with in the fall and then obviously ski a shit ton at whistler and seymour as soon as the snow falls. Drop a comment...

I am actually gonna be on campus (hopefully) for my second year at UBC next winter and am looking to be ready to finally ski up there. I am definitely gonna buy a whistler student pass when they go on sale and that's gonna be my go-to whenever I have a full day off of class but I also wanna...

Has anyone skied both of these skis? If so, what are the main on-snow (and in the air) differences between the two?

I'm not stupid, I go to a bootfitter and I know the best boots are the ones that fit. My homie is thinking about buying touring boots for his new boots so he can upgrade his P15s to the cast system if he wants. He's been skiing 140 flex plug boots forever since he used to race and wanted to buy...

It's a store in Finland and they've got a good price on an item I'm looking to buy. Has anyone ever bought from their online store, especially if you're in the US? They definitely look like a legit company but I'm wondering how the shipping/customer service is if anything goes wrong.

Really great film- this is the perspective more people (myself included) need to have. Go out and vote- lives will depend on it! purplemountainsfilm.com **This thread was edited on Oct 5th 2020 at 2:43:21am

6 years ago today, we lost two of the biggest legends in their lanes of the sport Go watch some endlessflow and poorboyz segs for some major inspiration and to pay your respects! Pictures from Bjarne Salen

Seriously considering pulling the trigger on the CAST preoders but not sure what else to pair it with. Definitely looking for a 50/50 setup. My ideal would probably be the moment deathwish ( @cydwhit ) but would probably want to cut other costs in the setup if I got those. I would prefer to get...

Almost definately gonna be going to UBC for engineering this fall and figured I'd throw out a few skiing related questions I haven't found adequate answers for and see if any of you guys who go/have gone there can answer them. Do you need to have a car to get to north van/whistler to mtn bike...

I'm in slc to visit the U and I'm gonna ski snowbird tomorrow and alta saturday. Have never been here before and don't have anyone to ski with. Anyone want to show me around? Looking for the sickest cliffs and best trick jumps. I promise I won't slow you down

I broke the brake on one of my pivot heels, and I have an extra heel so I figure it would be easier and cheaper to switch it out than buy new brakes. Can I just undo the screws and put the other heel in the same holes? Should I just put epoxy in, or do I need some sort of insert to make the old...
