    Zermatt has shit for park in the winter. The shapers are only there during the summer.

    Parks in switzerland?

    The best park in Switzerland is in Laax, hands down. The parks in Portes du Soleil are also very good but less well maintained. Saas-Fee is pretty good. Pre-season and end of season Les Diablerets / Glacier 3000 is really sick, as wel as Kaunertal and Schnalstal, which are technically Austria...

    GAP YEAR HELP!

    First of all this thread is cracking me up. British and Aussies telling you how important it is to drink. Then a Kiwi telling you that Aussie has no mountains, but quietly admitting New Zealand has no girls.. it's so funny. Truth is Argentina has way bigger mountains than New Zealand, a TON...

    06 AR5

    nope they're pretty stiff. I've owned the 06 AR5 for a season, I was very happy with them.. it's a very good park ski. The AR6 are a little wider, which is why I like them better...... but if you can get the AR5 cheap and don't have powder, I would go for it. The graphic is sick.

    Massive, reasons, or turbo? ++++karma

    I have only seen Reasons and Turbo... and I liked Reasons the best. I liked it a lot. The Japan segment is sick and the segment with Eric and Pep is so much fun to watch.

    I've just realized...

    You cannot be worried about the way you look when you spend all your money trying to ski all summer long on glaciers and in the southern hemisphere, and travel, and ski new places, and meet your skiing buddies all over the world... I'd rather pass on a flashy new outfit and use the money to buy...

    Summer skiing in Argentina

    NZ generally has less powder but better parks. You should have a look at the 5th Hunting Yeti webisode, they have shots from Australia, Argentina and NZ and give you a good idea of what kind of skiing you'd be doing in each. http://www.rip.tv/video/view/34865 season runs from June to October...

    NS super slow, uses so much resources

    ok changing the settings as mentioned above helps a lot, at least on the Linux machine, thanks a lot :) on my Mac its still unusable, I suspects some scripts are messing up on it because its old and non-intel? Either way I'm getting a new faster mac next week so that should fix the problem i hope.

    Summer skiing in Argentina

    The better resorts in Argentina are Cerro Catedral (in Bariloche), Les Lenas and Ushuaia. Catedral has a bit of everything (above treeline bowls, awesome treeruns, park...) Las Lenas has some crazy steep scary freeriding. Getting a job would be very hard and pay pretty much nothing. Salaries...

    The pages load fast, this is not the problem, but for example scrolling down a page has a very big lag...
