    Anyone have news about the dude who broke his back in Anomaly?

    That makes him a dude in my book... But to be honest, I can't name more than about 4 or 5 top skiiers. Do names like Tanner Hall ever show up in mainstream media in America? Sure has hell never hear or see anything about them in this part of the planet... except for X-games and that's only if...

    R.E.D audex

    It's probably the same quality as listening to a factory corolla car stereo... it's alright but it's not breathtaking. I use mine with my Nokia 6275i mp3 phone and it works good but I'm trying to sort out some sort of handsfree set up for myself for answering calls. At the moment I plug the...

    Anyone have news about the dude who broke his back in Anomaly?

    There's a whole segment dedicated to Mark in Anomaly and we get told that "the scariest part about the situation now is that he still can't feel his legs". Seeing as it was all filmed straight after the accident, I'm just wondering if anyone knows if the guy has made any progress? cheers

    Goggles because of Looks?

    I fully thought this thread had something to do with buying goggles based on bindings... just that captilization of Looks did it for me. I kinda need some new goggles soon coz my Scott goggles are getting all frayed around the strap. Will try get another season out of them. I guess it's pretty...

    JVC or Panasonic camera?

    Actually na, low light performance isn't where 3CCDs most notably differ to single censors. And the dudes who are hating on JVC don't know shit either, JVC are up there. Get the Pana tho, GS is good, 3CCD is good (for colour reproduction in good light), tiny lens but that's where the money goes.

    Help! - Which skis should I buy?

    One great thing about Armada skis is that all their different length skis are made proportionately equal. For example, 176 is going to be slightly narrower than a 181. I don't think there's ANY other companies out there doing this for all dimensions (correct me if I'm wrong)

    What to do for 15+ hours on a plane.

    Yeah I hooked up with an asian model on a flight to Australia once, she was on my same flight home a week later so that was awesome... I'd say wear a suit if you plan to get drunk, they'll think you're some sort of high roller so won't cut you off too quick :p

    What to do for 15+ hours on a plane.

    Get to the airport early, look for the hottest girl who looks like she might be on your flight, talk to her, ask if you can sit next to her (you don't wana get stuck with the sick fat guy with the baby etc.)

    WHO ON NS PLAYS FOOTBALL?

    Except if you're in New Zealand, then football is Rugby. Though, much more often it's called "footy". Yeah, makes no sense to me either. To me (I'm from England but live in NZ)... football = Arsenal FC, Barcelona, Real Madrid etc. soccer = I sometimes call football soccer but only when I'm...

    Kidney Pads?

    Anyone else wearing a kidney belt for skiing? I'm thinking of getting one, not sure whether to get a snowboarding one or a motocross one (or is there a skiing one?). I used to use one for motocross and it saved me a few times. Armada or someone should produce them...

    Help! - Which skis should I buy?

    Na man, do you realise how light this person is for his height? he's 167.6cm tall and weighs 56.6kg... I'm skinny and I'm 4cm taller and I weight 71kg... 171 would seem clunky to him. 166 would be perfect.

    Help! - Which skis should I buy?

    Given your height and especially your weight (56.6KG?!) I would say get the 166 Armada AR6.

    Haha its still there and still hurts

    I hate injuries like that. I've had a dodgy knee for about 3 months now... it's hard to explain, but basically it hurts just below my kneecap a lot if I stand on that leg and bend my knee as much as I can. I also have a messed up index finger, on the join nearest the nail. I think it's broken...
