    CAST Toepiece Wiggle

    Hi folks. Just got CAST mounted on my K108s that previously had shifts, and the shop pointed out that the alpine toepiece has some wiggle when locked in. It goes away when the boot is in, but with enough force it can still click a bit. It’s more significant on one ski than the other. I noticed...

    Ski Bag to Fly With

    So I've never taken my skis on a plane before, and am finally going to invest in a bag that I can check and not fear for my skis. I know the Dakine Fall Line is mentioned a lot, but I don't know if I'll always be traveling with two pairs of skis and I know it doesn't have straps - is it...

    Line Pandora 94 right for girlfriend?

    Hi all. So my gf is riding on some ancient carving skis like 10cm shorter than her and while she says she wants to get more into skiing, she’s pretty timid (comfy on blues but trees/blacks are a decided effort) and I think the sticks are holding her back. She really wants to learn and get...

    Modifying gloves?

    So I picked up a new pair of gloves this season (the Oyuki Tamashii) and the cuff is awkwardly loose, and weirdly there's no way to tighten them beyond a totally ineffective zipper. Already wore them a couple days so I don't think I can return. Seems like it could be an easy enough fix to sew...

    Mountain-oriented jib ski to complement Kartel 108

    This season I got some K108s as my ski for riding all over BC, put shifts on them and have been riding them 50/50 resort and backcountry. Plan was to ski my old bacons and ar6s on the small local hills for jibby days but I love the K108 too much that I end up just riding them instead. But since...

    Binding Heel Tab Broke - Critical or Not?

    So on my old Jesters the tab of the heelpiece you step on to click in snapped off almost at its base. Didn't notice until after the day of skiing, and didn't have any issues riding. I can still click in by stepping on the little nub that's left. Anyone had this happen and if so, thoughts...

    Help me find an indie song

    So I heard the intro to this, and was immediately reminded of some song I know I've heard, that I want to find. Only the intro has anything to do with the one I'm thinking of, which has a sort of piano that follows that chord pattern. I feel like the lyrics have something like "you hold my...

    What do you think the most artistic ski edit/production is?

    Title says it. That thread on photography as documentation vs. art got me thinking, most ski films hardly stray from the pure documentation side of things. But some do a really good job of communicating the rider's individual style, or take a completely different approach to the filming/editing...

    What's a good casual camera bag/pack setup?

    My regular backpack I use for school needs to be retired, and I feel like I could use a camera-friendly pack for daily use to school, that would also be able to hold a bit more gear for photo adventures. I'm after a pack that can hold a 13-inch laptop, can hold at least a camera and a couple...

    Coachella Live 2012

    So I didn't see a thread on this yet this year, and it seems suiting that NS should have one created. Discuss the shows, how much you wish you were there, all that. By the way, M83 is killing it so hard right now. http://www.youtube.com/user/coachella/live

    In desperate need of help brainstorming photo project

    So I picked my topic and started shooting for it, but I only have 5ish photos I like, and need 10-20 for my series. Totally at a loss, any help would be awesome. The topic is how society often fails to see the big picture, and as a result misses out on important perspectives. Eg. listening to...

    FS: Akai APC 40 Midi controller

    Running short on funds and finding that I haven't been using my APC enough to justify keeping. Great condition, everything works. Really sad to let this go. I think I used the license for the light version of Ableton Live that it comes with, so I don't know if I'll be including that. I'll...

    FS: Extra ticket to Pretty Lights and Mt. Eden show July 1

    So yeah. Pretty Lights and Mt. Eden dubstep are playing at Celebrities this Friday. Canada day, July 1. The friend that I was holding the ticket for can't go, and none of my other friends can either, so I have an extra ticket if anyone wants it. $30. Thought I'd hook up an NSer before going on...

    The Indie dance/ Nu disco / Electropop music thread

    I feel like this music doesn't get much exposure, but there have to be a bunch of people who like it. Share up. I'll try to keep this going if people get into it.
