    Womens rights rant

    So you're saying that stay at home Mums are lazy? My Dad stayed at home when me and my bro were young and I don't doubt that it was hard work, probably harder than being a stay at home Mum or going out to work because it's still not seen as a normal thing to do, even more so 20 years ago...

    Tight pants

    Haha, did you join NS just to ask this? I have no idea, maybe they enjoy the support it gives their manbits? Maybe it's because they are emo and like to cut themselves? Maybe it's just because they like how it looks!?

    New ski boot company??

    Wasn't there a thread about Amplid doing boots now? I have no real knowledge but I would guess that the reason there are more 'core' boot brands in snowboarding is that snowboard boots are easier and cheaper to design. It's not like you can just expand your crocheting and tshirt company into...

    UK/Europe Freeski Camps

    Cheers man, will be looking into that for sure. 2 jobs isn't too bad when you're saving for something fun, I seriously wonder how the people I work with stay sane though, no more offices for me after this! On a tangent, has anyone coached for any of the camps? Pros only? I have American and...

    UK/Europe Freeski Camps

    Glacier 3000 in Nov looks so sick, it handily fills the post summer/pre winter gap (I believe some call it autumn, or even fall?) as well! How much did accom and passes cost you guys? I'm heading out to 2Alpes for six weeks mid June to the end of July, not planning on doing any camps as they...

    Odwalla

    Odwalla is tasty, but for smoothies I prefer Naked, I actually miss them when I'm not in the States. Odwalla bars are great as well, there's a carrot cake one that is particularly awesome.

    Uefa Champions League Final

    So, who do we reckon is going to take over from Grant then? I want Mourinho, at least he's entertaining. As for Ronaldo being a diver, I think he's got better, he also does actually get fouled a lot. I would say Drogba is worse, partly because he's built like a tank yet seems to have the pain...

    Rossi trixie

    My ex had a pair this season and liked them a lot. They looked like a very different ski to the scratch though, cap construction I think and a different sidecut. They seemed very light and flexy, maybe more of a beginner/intermediate ski?

    Uefa Champions League Final

    I'm about to go work in a pub where we are showing the game, it's going to be super busy. I reckon Man U are going to clinch it, very hard to call though. Did anyone on here watch the FA cup final? My local team won, the entire city went nuts.

    FUCK i have mono

    I had it back in March/April, it hit me pretty hard. I thought it was just a cold to start with so when it got a bit better I went back to work (ski instructor), after three days back I was feeling like death. I had a week in bed barely able to swallow my own saliva or speak, then a few weeks...

    Manufactured Reality

    More than Rolling Stone can give me, that's for sure. Why didn't you just post a link? Do you have any take on all this?

    FR bike advice?

    I just got a Commencal Supreme 6.2, going to take it to the Alps for the summer (ski park in the morning, bike in the afternoons), can't wait. Haven't ridden it yet, so can't really reccomend it, but bought it based on some good reviews, plus a really cheap price for last years bike. The rest of...

    Paddy Graham

    Jesus man, look at what you quoted, 'I'm not saying he doesn't rip'. I'm sure he's a sick skier, just not someone who is up and coming like Paddy.

    Drinking age in China

    Retarded, really? For suggesting he visit some parts of China that aren't quite so crowded (they're still very crowded, just slightly less so) as the rest of it? I'm not saying I saw everywhere, but those were the places I liked most, and most people I met there agreed, what's wrong with...

    Drinking age in China

    Just read that again and I messed up, Guanxi and Yunnan are generally less touristy, but Hainan is actually the most touristy place on earth, it's fun, but absolutely crazy.

    Drinking age in China

    You will not have a problem getting served in China, there was a Swedish family staying at one of the hostels I stayed at and their kids (15-18) were out getting drunk all the time. Beer from shops is dirt cheap, it can get a bit pricey in bigger clubs in the cities, but if you chat (or try to...

    PLEASE Help me save my Favorite Canadian Television show...

    Based on the Douglas Coupland book? That could be cool, but I gues it won't make it to the U.K.. Signed.

    Paddy Graham

    No, I wasn't sure that was him, 'cause the skier was tagged as 'pikey'. Not saying he doesn't rip, just that he's unlikely to set the comp scene on fire in the U.S.!
