    Help me out, what’re some skis almost as soft as my Blends? I don’t think anything can possibly be softer but what skis are close?

    Where to ski in Utah in two weeks

    I am going to check out University of Utah and do three days of skiing in the area from February 15-19 and am wondering if some mountains are doing better than others with the weak conditions over there. I'll be with my dad and brother, and while I'd prefer to go to Brighton so that I could lap...

    Careers for a skier/outdoors person

    So I’m heading to college in the fall and am plagued with the decision of what to do with my life. I’m indecisive and there are plenty of majors that sound cool, although I’m leaning towards civil and environmental engineering. Out of curiosity, does anyone on here have a cool or unusual job...

    Are all Full Tilts generally the same?

    I feel like almost all of the 99 last full tilt boots are the same thing, besides a cinch powerstrap I can’t find a single difference between the first chair 6 and the Wallisch pro. The classic and drop kick also seem the same besides the weight difference of ~50 grams I think. I’m genuinely...

    For Sale: 2018 Solomon X-Pro 90 CS 27.5

    I’ve skied in these boots five days and simply would rather get more full tilts after experiencing a regular boot for the first time in a while. I haven’t modified them in anyway. Nothing wrong with them. Dm me offers if interested, I’m thinking around $250

    New Park Ski Help

    I can get discounts on Armada, Line, and Faction now from my work and need a new park ski. I'm 5' 11" 150 pounds and need help deciding between the Candide 1.0, ARV 86, and maybe the Chronic. I ski like 80% rails and 20% jumps, this ski likely won't ever leave the park so all mountain...

    Where to mount GoPro for first person POV

    I just got a hero 5 black for Christmas, my first GoPro, and was wondering what people thought looked better for Candide style, first person, all mountain shredding; helmet or chest mount? And also whether helmet mount is annoying with the extra weight overhead?

    Jester vs Griffon

    I’m looking for advice on whether or not it is worth buying Jesters over Griffons. I’m ~5’ 11”, 145lbs and need bindings for my pow skis to huck cliffs and ski fast, steep terrain. I will only be skiing on a DIN of 7-8 but I get Marker bindings pretty cheap and am not sure if I would have to be...

    AT Frame Bindings vs Daymakers

    I’ll be skiing mostly inbounds but hope to do some tours next season in Utah and need help deciding between some AT frame bindings or griffons with daymakers for my J Friends. I’ll be skiing mostly inbounds but getting frame bindings would save me money and would be convenient. What performance...

    Cool Everyday is a Saturday Style Jacket

    Pow Ski Help

    Okay, so I'm trying to do some research on what type of powder ski to get and looking for help and opinions. I've never skied anything over 100mm waist wide so I'm not sure how fat I should go. I'm also 5' 11" like 145 pounds. I'm looking for a powder ski that: -I can still ski the mountain...

    Boots for a skinny leg

    I've had ft classics the past two seasons and after a solid hour or so of riding they always would loosen around my leg so that there was gap to fit fingers between my leg and boot liner. I don't necessarily need a park boot but just something soft enough to be forgiving on jumps. I tried on...
