As in any other sport, or life in general, there are good days and bad days. Some days are tits deep blower, every turn you make seems to force a childlike grin out of you as if you were skiing for the first time. Other days are not so great, maybe it's a little crusty, the snow too sticky, the...
Racist shit for the boys
A lot of people are worried about offending other people if they say something racist. That never really was something I worried about. My biggest fear when I say something I shouldn't is somebody actually agreeing with me. Nothing will shut you up faster when trying to...
Do you remember the first time you clicked into a pair of skis? You cruised down the hill at 0.1 MPH but you were "flying". That feeling of freedom only increased as you gained confidence and technique.
When all the other shit in life hit the fan skiing was there. An outlet, a passion...
I've been reflecting a bit and thinking about how lucky I am to have gotten into skiing. Skiing and snowboarding had a beyond positive impact in my youth. I was literally getting dropped off with a cooler full of PBJ sandwiches at opening, and picked up at closing. Many times they closed early...
I just sold my mini ramp. It was hard to even list the thing, but it went to a super rad mom. Her 9 year old son had just gotten into skating and is out on his board every day. Going into the summer she wanted to buy the ramp so he could get outside and skate at home. I let him take some test...

When I was coming up in skiing, I was still naive enough to think I was still...
EA Announced skate 4 today. Although not in anyway a skiing game, a bunch of us have passed the time through the hottest days of summer, playing the hell out of the previous skate games. Hell, we had triple corks dialed on the mega ramp before skiers were getting them around. Maybe we should be...
I'm not any good at skating, hell I'm not really good at snowboarding, and unfortunately at this point I'm terrible at skiing.
The thing is all 3 of those things have brought me a lot of joy. Skiing being the OG got me into the mtn life and eventually into snowboading. Snowboarding has kept me...
Lesh has made a point to market himself as a bad boy, and his gear the same way. Everything from girls, to crazy stunts, and ridiculous headlines. There's nothing wrong with that, but at what point does trolling and advertising become legitimate douchery?
You've probably heard of him by now. If...

War of Rails
War of rails was fairly short lived but it brought some creative features, and quality skiing. An event most of us(other than a...
