    FS: Nike iD gift card - $150 for $120 + Paypal fees

    I received a $150 Nike iD gift card for winning the TJ Schiller topsheet competition on here a while back - I only actually got the card a month or two ago when I met TJ in Vancouver, and subsequently found out that they don't ship to Canada. I'm based in Revelstoke and I can't be bothered...

    Tom Wallisch / Kombi Gloves entries

    I thought I'd make a thread to give everyone a bit more exposure for their entries to the Wallisch / Kombi competition, and also to ask if there's any contact information for the comp. I've got an entry, but I've slightly modified the template so I can show both left and right hands, and I...

    Panorama Park Updates

    Hi folks - I'm making this thread to keep everyone updated on the terrain park situation at Panorama in SE BC. I'm posting in Calgary/Banff as we tend to get most of our visitors from Alberta, and this forum gets more traffic than the interior. My name's Ian and I'm the park supervisor at...

    Weight trainning ?

    Actually, low rep sets are better at developing strength. If you do low reps (between 3 and 6 rep sets) with higher weight than you would use on, say, a 10 rep set, then you're going to be able to progress to more weight faster than if you go high rep. Higher rep routines are better for...

    Tramdock - PX12 Jibs

    Did anyone just grab a pair of these bindings from Tramdock? I got some and I'm pretty stoked about it, can stop skiing on shitty M11s in the park now. Nice price at 92 bucks as well! Only thing I'm worried about is the brake width - apparently they're default at 80 and my Fujatives are 85...

    K2 PE, Bridges or Tanner Halls?

    I'm 6'1" 76kg, and I rode 179 PEs all last season at centre sole recommended mounting point. I found them very heavy and stiff, and they don't really float very well in powder. If you're going to get them, make sure you mount them forward a bit (I'm remounting mine this coming season)...

    Ski video games

    Freak Out: Extreme Freeride by some Swedish company or something. Check it out on YouTube, it's pretty damn fun to play for a while. Scratches the itch a bit at least. Good luck finding a copy though! :/

    Good Ski Resort Jobs

    Seconded, that shit gets lame after the first week. Sitting there watching everyone have a wicked time while you get to stare at the bullwheel for hour after hour. Question: how's trail crew or park crew as a resort job? I'm heading back to the same mountain I was at last season (Panorama in...

    08 public enemyzzz

    While we're on the topic, would it be better to mount them at recommended core centre as per the diagram, or -2cm from actual centre (about 1 - 1.5cm of difference)? I have them at mid sole recommended at the moment, but it's way too far back and based on experience with my Fujatives, I enjoy...
