Everyone likes a win, and if you win the new Red Mountain sweepstakes, we're talking about a WIN. They call the trip a Radical Reset and Red is pretty much the perfect place for that. Deeply embedded in the community of Rossland, BC, Red is a...
If there's one thing Sunshine Village provided us in abundance for Gear Week this year, it was weather. We had sun, we had snow, we had warm days, we had freezing cold ones, we had wind, and often a combination of several of the above in quick succesion. Thankfully, that made for a perfect...
IF3, Newschoolers, Street Movies, and TRH Bar MTL, it's a foursome that's been doing the deed for some time and certainly seen it's share of things best left unsaid. We're ready to go OFF this thursday with @Dr.Zorko mc-ing the event, and he'll be tossing out a bunch of NS swag and other...

Our final ski category at the Newschoolers Gear Week can be an absolute bastard when it comes to testing because a fair test requires the weather to play ball. Powder skis are made first and foremost for skiing 3D snow, and can be found lacking...
Next up from our annual week of smashing up gear at Sunshine Village, All-Mountain skis. We have a fantastic crew of testers, and thanks to our pals @sunshinevillage, we had an incredible variety of terrain to test skis on, which is fortunate because All-Mountain skis are a hard category to...
Newschoolers Gear Week at Sunshine Village has become an annual fixture at this point. We have a fantastic crew of testers, and thanks to our pals @sunshinevillage, 100% Eyewear & Dissent Labs (and perhaps most importantly the benvolent snow gods) this year was the best yet. We invited Powder...

Looks like NS kicked off a trend in the ski industry. F*ck the MAN maan (we jest). But in pretty huge news, the Beast of the East is entering a new chapter in its storied history with its upcoming sale to a passionate group of local passholders. The...
We held off on posting this one, because we didn't want to skew the outcome of the poll. However, now that it's over we're stoked to announce that two of our nearest and dearest, Jamie Walter and Carter Edwards, made up the final two in the snow category of Ikon's photo awards. It was a neck and...

The vision for the re-emergence of the Silver Belt was simple: create a competition-like environment but remove the high-intensity pressure on the athletes. Then, have the best skiers in the world come to partake. Yes, there are still podium spots, but when the athletes are judged by their...

You know how sometimes there’s that one friend you invite to stay for a night and somehow, years later, they’re still living on your couch? Yep, that’s kind of what we’ve done at Sunshine Village (@ShredSSV...
Nothing is quite like Unrailistic. The craziest rail features, the world's best rail skiers, and some total curveballs. It's a clever event too, it's pretty out there but unlike the invitational contests (Kimbo, SuperUnknown) and big bucks events (Nines etc), it really does translate to...
On the 25th and 26th of April, the world’s freeskiing elite will convene to compete on Jesper Tjäder’s ultimate course at the much-anticipated Red Bull Unrailistic event in Åre. X-Games and Olympic medalist Jesper Tjäder promises an array of even more audacious and sizable rails designed to push...
