I bought these for $60 and a sixer 10 odd years ago. When I acquired a pair of the rare and much-coveted Nordica W105′s soon after, the old 977′s seemed like the perfect match for the big...

You?re probably thinking about summer now. There isn?t much snow left and the beach, a cold Tecate, some dream pop, a tan, and an ice-cream sandwich sound pretty damn nice...

Will the next Silas Chickering-Ayers please stand up? Here’s a look at some of the names we’ll be seeing in the next couple of years.
Johnny Collison is one of my favorite young skiers. He has great energy, tons of confidence and tons of style. If he keeps competing, someday he’s going to put it all together and win one of these. In the meantime, it’s fun watching him come close. Here’s a look at his finals run from the 2012...

Back in the ’00s, Marc Andre Belliveau was one of my favorite skiers to watch. His ability to trick in big lines, revert to switch at high speed, and jib off unlikely obstacles made him one of a kind. In 2006 he lost the use of his legs in an accident in British Columbia. After...

Garland Davis is the only person that knows the recipe to the Last Run Inn bloody mary mix. The drink is so popular at the Snowbowl bar, he makes the secret blend in 6-gallon batches. On a typical day, he?ll sell about 130 pints of...

Ed.’s Note – Associate Editor, and lifelong Giants fan, Mike Rogge bet Editor Derek Taylor, who’s rooted for the Patriots since Steve Grogan was getting sacked, on this weekend’s game between the New York Giants and New England Patriots. It goes without saying, Rogge has the G-Men and Taylor has...

Halloween is possibly my favorite holiday, offering the layman the chance to dress up and inhabit the personality of someone weirder, sketchier, more handsome, or more of a drunk than their usual persona. But this time it was Mother Nature, who donned her La Niña costume and came...
One POV edit is not better than the other. I love all the POV edits the same. Well, maybe not all of them. Helmet cams have given a generation of skiers the ability to document their radness. We, the people of the Internet, are here to reap the benefits. Inspired by a Facebook post on Powder’s...

I had to turn the bird chirping noise off the TweetDeck application this morning. It’s true, I enjoy overseeing the @PowderMagazine Twitter and Facebook accounts. Aside hand-written letters or riding a chair lift, it’s easily the best...
When was the last time we updated this blog? Forever ago? Yeah, that’s true. For you readers out there, here’s a quick look at a new backpack Powder’s Art Director Mike Taylor and DAKINE designed together for the 40th anniversary of the magazine. -Mike Rogge

For me, the scene at Mammoth Mountain really took off when Tanner Hall and Pep Fujas started filming segments there back in the early 00s. It’s where tricks were not just thrown for the first time but more importantly were perfected with style. While Hall and Fujas may have moved on from Unbound...
