Serious "look how they massacred my boy" vibes. The boot makes no sense at all, if you want to tour on a Krypton buy Lupo pros, its such a simple and easy alternative. Maybe there aren't many people like me who are interested in a ISO-soled, burly alpine boot, but there cant possibly be more...

Saw some snowboard kid pull a sick tweaked out method under the lift yesterday. Got me thinking, snowboarding has a ton of grabs that look cool straight aired and skiing seems to have like none. In my mind a good method is pretty much the only one. Maybe a really shifty-ed safety?

https://www.vaildaily.com/news/employee-passes-restricted-at-vail-this-weekend-reservations-full-uphill-access-closed/ Another feather in the cap of the sadness machine that is Vail Resorts. While we all probably thought something like this would go down seeing it actually happening is...

Site's password protected, I'm guessing till I get it. So far its not Moment or moment. Or if anyone wants to just tell me what it is would be coo http://www.mmntskis.com/

Broke my heel piece smoking a rock, skis are ok but need to replace the bindings. Guy on the lift suggested I replace them with a binding with the same screw pattern, saying something about just using larger screws, is this a good idea? I would have thought a different screw pattern would be...

Its obvious the xgames have gotten completely stale over the last several years, and even though the real street segments are a godsend they dont have anything to do with the actual live events. The harley thing up the halfpipe last year was wack, and most of the new events theyve tried to add...

Noticed this photo popping up around the internet again and need to get to the bottom of it. Every time this makes the rounds Summit people get a big kick out of it, reposting, crying face emojis, etc. Is it humanly possible to be more ignorant? The folks in Aspen would GLADLY pay for a wall...

Have heard some concerning things about boots using Grilamid in the construction, like its not difficult to put dents in the shell and easy to deform the toe and heel pieces from normal use in alpine bindings. Curious if anyone has experience with this, I've never personally had or heard of...

Tails of both skis delaming, just noticed in the spring. It was my 1st year on em and the website isnt clear on exactly what sort of defects are covered

Total nightmare scenario is unfolding before my eyes here and its only November, yikes. Put in an order for skis at a brick and mortar shop couple weeks ago with the brand rep there, filled out the paper form signed sealed delivered I'm yours right? Not a chance as I get an email from the shop...

Saw their insta post a week and a half ago, wondering if anyones got theirs yet, and where'd you get it mailed to?

Insane clip, spots music and skiing all so on point. Figure this has to be an easy done deal, unlike last year.

Havin a hard time with dudes with iphone gimbals and the guys they follow thinking they have the right to blow by everyone else waiting at the drop, knuckle, whatever. Nobody on instagram gives a shit about your switch 5

If we all do them at once it has to work. New England counts too obviously its working for you guys

Building off a earlier thread on passes, the mountains have been really stepping up their bullshit game over the last several seasons, and anybody with two eyes and an intact long term memory has noticed. The weird thing about resorts going overboard with all the signage and slow patrol and...
