    Boston Mills/ Brandywine

    Shout outs to Akron people! Really, BMBW is trying their best. Boston Mills really just started putting park stuff out. They don't have much but it works. I have been skiing their since age 2 and it hasn't changed much except for the park. I don't go to BW as often but I think I will be going...

    Anthem Vs. Suspects

    Depends on what your skiing. Suspects are stiffer and less wide. Also as a person on this forum stated that his cracked his Suspects on the first day. It's hard to compare the skis. Anthems have more "butterability" then the Suspects and have a wider underfoot. Personally I enjoy a wider ski...
