    Do skinny pants still exist?

    Niche outerwear discussion time. Haven't replaced my skinnys for a few years but now the time has come I'm struggling to find a new set with good water proofing. Any suggestions? I've had these Holdens for way too long

    You can resurrect one thing from skiings past, what do you choose?

    Been thinking about this a bunch recently on downdays, I'm getting old and feeling nostalgic. So whether it be it a ski graphic, a contest or even a feature, what would you choose to bring back? I'd probably go with JOSS or yearly movie drops with no leaked footage (premiere hype was insane)

    Whistler Blackcomb closed

    Closed until April 19th but can't see them opening back up for a couple of weeks. 2 years on the bounce with no spring park skiing. Dammit

    NS facebook over posting?

    I've noticed over the last few weeks that the NS facebook posts a metric ton of content everyday. However it seems that some of the posts aren't stacked in regards of quality. When you notice there's been about 23 posts in the last 24 hours it strikes of overkill and buzzfeed-yness. Don't get...

    Could the ski industry run a successful 'King of the Road'?

    Having followed it for a few years via Thrasher and more recently VICE, I've always wondered if skiing could pull this off? I know freeskier did something similar a few years ago but it seemed so watered down in comparison to Thrashers challenge book. Who would the teams be? Challenges...

    Boot fitters of NS, whats the strangest problem you've had with a boot fit and how did you solve it?

    Been boot fitting for a few months now and had an elderly gentlemen come in with charcot foot (the metatarsals soften, arch collapses and end up fusing together leaving a large boney area on the inside of the foot) note: it's a grim google search ended up putting him in an APEX boot as it was...

    New color names

    just wondering if it'd be a good idea to have certified ski techs as a different color name on here so that when people ask gear questions they can distinguish between pople who may be guessing and people who may have experience/be able to help more (downside could be liabilty for advice but...

    Can we stop pushing small children so hard to ski?

    I'm over coaching (I think). I really enjoy skiing and thought that sharing my stoke with people would be fun. After 4 years away (instructing and general skiing) from the UK I came back to coach some freestyle at the indoor slope. In that time the vibe seems to have completely changed from...
