Equal pay for Equal work. Make the girls compete against the boys if they want to get paid the same.

So classic. Looks like Peter Bauer (one of the Amplid founders) is holding onto his snowboard carving days! It is a sick looking boot though. I like what they've done to dress it up.

Hate to be a buzzkill here, but these are NOT NEW boots. These are old Raichle Snowboarding hardboots that were then made into ski boots by Raichle, then turned into freestyle boots by LINE, with the LINE Transfer (blue boots, circa 2000). Amplid has just tweaked the buckles on this version...

This may have been one of the dumbest comments I've ever read on this site...are you suggesting that Moment is in it to lose money? Do you really think that the people who live and work in Austria making Atomic's skis don't ski or don't care for or have a passion for skiing? Atomic was started...

First!

Atomic produced two films this year with Kris Ostness. One is a freestyle team movie called 44 Days which Ostness shot exclusively. Skiing Is _____. Is a film that was partly shot by Ostness, and completely edited by him with other footage from various sources like Red Bull and Nimbus that...

I think it will be available for download on Freeskier and Atomic's website. You just get it automatically with Podcast.

Charley is a sick skier. He definitely throws down. However, there's more than being a sick skier that companies look for when they look to spend money on sponsoring a skier. It's also about whether or not that athlete is out in the marketplace like in the magazines, and whether or not that...

^^Yeah, he doesn't grab on the 180, but he also wasn't trying to on that. A 180 over flagstaff is super gnar. That jump has one of the sketchtiest inruns in the gap scene. You make a hard right at like 40mph seconds before entering the point of no return on a snow bridge across a gully right...

^^Dude you're crazy...Becker is the man and he's pushing his own style instead of watching all the videos and then spending a year trying to copy what all the other pros did the year before. Also, he held his grab for soooo long on the step down 9 he did. Respect.

There's 2005 Lines on ebay, no reserve, and only 2 days left.

Check out ebay...there's 05 1260s, Skogens, Motherships, and Assassins

While I agree that we need more creativity in this sport, and the big brands like Rossi, Salomon, Atomic, Head, etc. aren't giving them to us, I would like to point out that Kris Ostness has already made three of the MOST creative films in ski or snowboard history. His films also included both...

No, Kip Arnette started Electric. This is the same Kip Arnette that started, you guessed it, Arnette sunglasses. He sold Arnette and started a new company.
