Exactly. They add balance. In freeskiing this means people wave their poles around (which you hardly notice cuz they are so thin) rather than their arms. No poles is harder, especially harder to be steezy, but it forces you to ski without mistakes and inevitably to flail less in the end.

Or you can just move your weight and hands forward and not ski backseat. Poles are from a time when skis were straight and thin. Now that skis are shaped, superfat, and sometimes even rockered, you can also surf the snow and then you don't need poles. Again.. Ever seen a snowboarder needing a...

you mean 1915 ski mechanics. I've never seen a snowboarder need to pole plant.

The cheapest from Holland is to go with one of the budget skiing organizations. www.sportura.nl www.husk.nl Most Dutch people go to Mayrhofen (there's a cheap train deal that takes you there). Mayrhofen is pretty sick. Or you can go to Mayrhofen with Saiko, they offer really sick trips...

It's amazing the amount of bullshit that is posted in this type of threads. If you don't know what you're talking about: shut up. Davos is in Switzerland, not Austria. Davos is most definitely not gay, it has some of the best snow records in the alps and the snow is really light.. It's not too...

fuck the pipe cleaner man it's marketing gimmick for wannabes (Armada's new target market). AR6 is excellent. Since you're only mentioning jumps and rails, not pipe, you might wanna look into a fatter ski (which you center mount). Otherwise just get the cheapest you can find, there isn't much...

That quote is about snowblading, and if you have to look down to see your poles you don't even know how to use poles. Picture a snowboarder riding with poles: that's how gay you look.. holding 2 shafts for no particular reason except maybe the comforting feeling of giving 2 guys a hand job...

It's funny how they market that shit as the first, the tallest, the biggest, the best........ while Les Arcs - La Plagne did the exact same thing years ago. And those 2 mountains are twice as tall as Whistler. That lift is called the Vanoise Express and it's the gayest thing in the alps

Global warming will cause an Ice Age in Europe. Everyone needs to understand this.

This article talks about Arosa, Switzerland. During the past month Arosa had the most snowfall it has ever had since 1954.

In winter season Les 7 Laux and Avoriaz have better parks as far as France is concerned.

The amount of nonsense posted in these threads is ridiculous. Avoriaz is not even open on the date this thread is about. Laax is nowhere near Val d'Isere, it's probably about 10 hours drive as it's completely on the other side of Switzerland.

Les Deux Alpes is pretty far away, 3 hours. Les Diablerets is also 3 hours away and has the sickest park right now, that's Switzerland, but right across the border from France. There's an article on it on the front page of this site. But seriously, with the amounts of snow it's been shitting...

Laax has a park that is not on a glacier (2200m) and is sick right now. Easter Switzerland / Western Austria has the most snow right now. No need to mess on glaciers with this much snow.

Take a train to Zurich and hit up any of the amazing resorts....... Laax, Davos, Andermatt, Engelberg, ... there's even a direct train to St. Anton... doit.

Way to go dude. - I'd also like to see you make a film, any budget. - Pep, Eric & Andy made one of the most spoken-about movies is skiing history, doesn't matter if you like it or not, they achieved something, and you didn't. - The video section of your profile is empty. Again, if you think...

Some of these trendwhores are retarded. How does expensive HD cameras and stupid branches floating in the picture shot after shot consitute great cinematography? It does not. Optimistic has mindblowingly good cinematography. Picture This looks nice for a trailer, but watch the movie 3 times and...

goddamned n00b. Picture This isn't even that good. Optimistic, Thanks Brain and We're People Too are WAYYYYY better.

Surface Watch Life are super light. So are Rossignol Scratch FS WRS. To whoever is saying Armada or Völkl: NO. Keep in mind that bindings make up a great deal of the weight.
