Don't forget K2's cheeseburger

Muscle. Get down the gym and build up those legs. In the short term ease off back seat landings and butters or take lots of drugs.

Oh and Stump's Blizzard of Aaahs is still the best ski movie ever made.

MSP movies have their place. Yes they are no longer the new kids on the block, but their movies changed the face of skiing and we can't forget that - what long-term skibum didn't watch The Tribe and get blown away ? It was the movie that energised the whole freeskiing movement. MSP movies...

Final Cut Pro HD, and yes, some of us do shoot 16.

Suggest you post on the darksummer mag forum. Lots of line skiers and all brits... http://www.darksummer.co.uk I'd be more helpful but the last time I was in a london ski shop carving skis hadn't been invented...

Yeah, but look at how many people skate... I'm not dissing the small companies, all power to them, I just think it's unrealistic to think they will radically change the ski industry. One or two of them will probably make it, the rest will die and new small makes take their place. Meanwhile the...

And so you should, we're great. Incidentally the brit involvement is true, the money guy used to spend a lot of time in Verbier. and was introduced to the Armada projectt by a UK industry person (not telling who) in Verbs...

The move to tele-ing seems to have taken off in the long-term skibum community. Back in the mid nineties I'd be skiing in the snowpark and the only crew there were on snowboards, meeting another (alpine) skier hucking off jumps was an event. The first twin tips came along and a growing bunch of...

In another market more companies > more competition might make for lower prices, but if you think this'll happen in skiing you're having a laugh. The freeskiing market is still niche and the smaller companies just won't be able to benefit from the economies of scale that the larger companies...
