Don't get me wrong, I love the brand and they still make awesome skis, but I've seen far too many jerries and dentists on them lately. Perhaps that's a good thing for the brand overall as they progress into the mainstream and reach a wider market with deeper pockets. They're still my ride or...

Comes complete with fanny pack, apex ski boots, and N95 mask for the 3 minute bus ride!

On some super cold days recently I've started wearing latex gloves underneath my mittens and found it works surprisingly well for keeping my hands warm. Has anyone else ever tried this?

Alright NS, let's hear the best, most ridiculous, jerryish, or just plain weird conversations you've had on the chairlift. This was today: Guy on chair - Do you know what ON3P stands for? Me - I think it means on north 3rd street Portland, where they're from Him - Ohhhh so they're one of...

Was near the end of the day, not busy figured why not give it a go. Only afterwards did we realize anyone downloading had a direct view straight in.

Really liked the CT 4.0. Did they rebrand it as something else or what would be the closest thing now?

Nothing worse than a black toe first day back on skis.

Was just at Keystone and it was truly a sad sight. Not a single feature, not even any snowmaking started. I get that they have to prioritize opening runs at this point, but it seems almost that there's no intention of having a park at all. While we've seen this at other Vail resorts this is a...

Seems to be a major trend no matter where or what the snow conditions are. Copper and Breck for instance are 5 miles apart as the crow flies and generally get the same amount of snow. Copper now has the entire front side open plus a couple bowls, while Breck hasn't yet opened peak 10 or 6, just...

All I seem to see on here is Look at this, Pivot to that, but I'm not sure if I get the hype. To me they seem heavy and unwieldy. I've recently started mounting my skis with Tyrolia Attack/Adrenaline bindings and I've been really satisfied with their reliability and ease of stepping in and out.

So please ns, stop spamming me to buy one.

Did anyone else cop this year? I'll be there the 17th-19th this month, and might extend my trip if conditions are good. Would love to meet up if anyone else will be there.

Planning a trip to Utah next week, and I saw that Snowbird has no parking reservations and Alta is first come first served. Anyone have experience this year with getting to LCC? Also what's the general Covid situation in Utah? Are people wearing masks and being safe, or do they still pretend it...

Well travel is fucked and to make up for it I've been contemplating trying to do a season in Japan next year (that is if travel isn't still fucked). Just wondering if anyone has experience or advice in doing this - where to work, what kind of jobs are there for foreigners, how to get a visa...

My ON3P Kartels have been drilled 3 times already and the spot they're mounted in right now sucks. It's been a rough go between shops and bindings - first shop couldn't figure out how to mount my Tyrolia Adrenaline bindings after drilling holes, so they bought me Marker F12 Tour bindings and...
