    Candide Skis reviews

    They came out like 2 years ago at this point and still no official reviews from here, Blister, or anywhere...??? The only thing I could find was a First Impressions video by Skiessentials. Anybody here skied any of them?

    Armada Kimbo

    Anyone get a chance to ski these or talk to someone who has? No idea what to expect from them. Are they most like Bdogs or Strangers or...? Also come to think of it, I heard jack shit about the Short Pants Paradox last season, wish someone had reviewed it

    Are there any homemade bib pants

    Just ripped a huge tear into the bottom of my bib pants so I'm gonna need to get new ones soon. Do any homemade brands similar to R3evaluate, Kysen Hall, Woofbiz, etc. make wide cut bib pants?

    Twintip that slays bumps

    Looking for a ski that is fun in early winter + spring conditions. Really good in bumps and has the capability to jib in the park or wherever else. Armada Stranger might fit the bill.

    Fusion between monoski, waterski, and race snowboard?

    What if there was some kinda monoski that had staggered bindings like a waterski instead of bindings right next to each other? Maybe a forward-facing snowblade softboot binding in the front, and an angled step-on binding in the back, so that you could push it like a snowskate and then carve it...

    Eileen Gu went to the Met Gala

    Bruh https://www.instagram.com/p/CdFR_sFsQ3f/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_link Idk what to think about it, looks like she is the public face of women's freeskiing and maybe freeskiing in general at this point.

    How to keep sagging bib from falling down over shoulders

    I ride my bib looser and sorta sag it, but naturally it falls off my shoulders when I do that and ski. Doesn't cause a huge problem while riding but the crotch can get low to a corny degree. Does anyone do anything specific to secure your bib to your shoulders no matter how much you let out...

    After skiing Outsiders I can't imagine going back to a ski with less rocker. Even demoing ARV98s in 171 size felt like there was too much camber, I just wanna be able to swivel on a dime. To hell with catching an edge, ever. What skis out there have as much rocker as the Outsiders when you...

    Why is everything a parachute nowadays

    I fw parachute pants, but what happened to “heavier” looking baggy jackets like older Salomon, Armada, Oakley, Saga? We gotta get some indie companies on those

    What do I do with my skis if the same chunk keeps coming out

    Chunk on the edge of one of my skis came out after the edge had been epoxied a while ago. Got it epoxied again so that it'll work for the rest of the season, but that's expensive and it's likely to blow out again at some point. Should I learn to DIY epoxy and just keep doing that until the...

    Skiing’s POC problem

    Legit have been wanting to discuss this: We all know that the vast majority of skiers are white. The obvious reasons for this are because of economic inequality between races etc. But also, as far as I’ve seen (anecdotally), POC generally opt for snowboarding, especially black people. Why is...
