My parents recently moved to Mackenzie from Manitoba and my wife and I are going to be visiting them for xmas. We have been living in Colorado for the past few years and were wondering what it's like around xmas @ powderking? Is it worth lugging all the equipment through the airports to have the...

East Flatiron Circle park-n-ride west bound lane off 36. A few sick rail options that's definitely worth the attempt. I have lived nearby for a couple of years and wished I had moved here years ago when I was young enough to think about trying it. Buses don't run all night, so the parking lot...

They look sick, anyone have any info on them?

No, they were all wood last year too. They haven't changed at all. They talk about different features in some things but its the same ski. Just has different lengths this year.

Ya, and do you have pics of the pants too

Look in the picture of the patrol ace, the beanie on the right hand side come with the helmet and is made to wear inside it or take it out.

Why would you worry what other people have their DIN set at, you care too much. Let them do what they want. You do what you want. Some people would rather not pop out unless absolutely necessary cuz sometimes you can get more hurt when it does pop out. Some people want them to pop out for any...

They have three models, two flexes. 85 and 95. The Kreation is the blue one with 85 flex, Kaos is this years one basically with 95 flex and the pro model is the one that has the leather wrap and also 95 flex. They all come with different liners and different cushionings.

Everyone is definitely different but I had almost an identical problem as you. I rode FS' and wanted a pow ski. So I got the BC WRS and I love them. I have the 04/05 FS and I find my BC's are better everywhere but in the park and moguls. They are probably a little lighter than my FS' too. They...

There is a huge personal preference here. You can find the manufacturers suggested DIN setting and figure it out from there. Its whatever you are comfortable with. I would suggest trying lower and working up rather than starting high and working down. For the people who say its ridiculous to...

I have the BC WRS and they sound perfect for what you are looking for. I ride almost identical to what you are saying you do and they are amazing skis. Great on groomers and in the park. They are actually just as good in the park as my old 04/05 FS' and they are better everywhere else. Brigades...

Ya, Moseley helped our sport out a lot. He helped mogul skiing out hugely. They now no longer have the most restricting rule ever with no inverts, basically thanks to the dinner roll.

The SPK's definitely have a race base. And they were originally designed as the team pipe ski. Same ski as the "Foil's" dumont won the pipe comp on a few years ago. And same as the CR and Candide labs. Also the same as the 1080's withe the orange top sheet and all black bottom with just the...

The baker meets standards, just the hard hat doesnt. The baker is a great helmet, its the first one I have ever worn and yesterday was my first day using a bucket but I really like that helmet, super light and everyone gave me compliments. Fits grreat with my crowbars too. Not so good with my...

The SPK is the new CR lab. Same ski. Just newer and uglier graphics. Next years are sweet though.
