hey dallan, yep that's right, they still haven't found the american snowboarder who died along with 3 canadians that day in the avalanche. they searched for days but had to give up. not even the avalanche dogs had a chance. about the steepness of the terrain at the arlberg: for austrian...

you don't know what you're talking about. the arlberg (the big ski area st. anton belongs to) is no more dangerous than any other resort with backcountry skiing. actually it is somewhat saver even that other resorts, because the backcountry is constantly tracked out which packs the snow and...

2nd try, sorry: http://www.freeride-center.at

i ski in sölden - park is good (especially during the summer camps in june/july - they make a bigger effort then) but if you're used to parks in the US you might be disappointed. the sick thing about austria aren't the parks, it's the endless big mountain (freeride) opportunities. no one to...

no, i meant the glacier near my home town in austria. it's called sölden - well known for its freeski camps and parks.

I'll post it as soon as I get it.

yesterday - conditions on the glacier were great with 50 cm fresh powder - i punched a hole in my chin with my right knee. we were taking pics of a cornice and it was already 4 pm, didn't concentrate and jumped way too far into the flat. I didn't have a hope in hell of breaking my fall. Thank...

Hey go for it! I'm a ski guide in Austria and love my job. You have to be a person who can handle a lot of responsibility though but it is very rewarding. And don't base your decision only or mainly on the money factor, you can't know what's going to happen in your life before you're ready to...

I used to think exactly along those lines like: hey why go to a stupid freeride comp (big mountain in this case but no diff), I don't need a panel of judget to tell me if I can ski or not! But now I see it differently. comps are such great events to get new impulses: getting to know amazing...

you guys think that atomic triplets will be accepted as a cool park ski 05/06?

you wont be disappointed - this is a nice video of one of the most important freeski comps in europe. http://verbierride.com

^yeah that's right, but their lady's boots are designed for warmth and comfort, not for hard skiing i think

wann nächstes jahr? für den ganzen winter oder was?

I've been to slovenia once for the red bull snow thrill in kanin (bovec). the good things are: very cheap, good value for money, friendly people. bad things are though that they don't get that much snow (they get their snow from the south, that isn't all too much) and there isn't a park. you...

hey bartski, are u looking for good park skiing or what are you interested in?

that's easy: I won a freeride cross sponsored by Atomic and the first prize is a ski of my choice. I dont have any twins so I'm looking at getting the triplets. The next question is though, do I get Triplet urbans or HP. Atomic told me the urbans are stiffer under the boot since it has 2 edges...

the length of my ski boot is just a little under 300cm. my normal shoe size is USA 7. why do you recomend the 171s?

Mikee, would you agree though that having the shorter skis at the beginning is a lot easier and helps you progress faster?

I'm looking at getting atomic triplets but am not sure which length yet: 163cm or 171cm. I am 168cm tall, weigh 57kg, female and beginner in the park. Would appreciate your opinion!
