    Silly, but necessary question

    So, I want to buy a hockey jersey to ski in (www.jersey101.com...maybe not authentic, but god dammit, they're like 1/3rd the price), but when I look for sizing info, it only says the chest size and doesn't describe how long it will be. So I'm wondering if anyone knows how long they tend to be...

    Booster Straps!

    So after skiing for three days last weekend...on my local golf course and in my backyard because I couldn't get out of New York in the insane snowstorm that was battering the entire northeast (ironic, right?), I have what some might call hella shinbang. To be clear, I would never call it that...

    Dude, Ritalin SUCKS.

    I'm on 20 mg right now to try and help me focus on my work...my heart is thumping, my left arm feels like it's going away, I just feel exasperated, and lastly, I'm still on NS refreshing the "My Threads" page a billion times a minute. Fuck this shit! Does this happen to anyone else?

    HELP ME WITH MATH!

    I have a study sheet due tomorrow for my test on Tuesday that counts as a portion of the points on the test, and for the life of me I cannot understand what the fuck the multiplicity of a zero in a polynomial function is. Please, somebody with pre-calc knowledge explain this to me?

    My 2011 quiver: question

    So I have decided to buy a pair of Moment Rockers. I am 5'9" exactly (175.26cm) and weigh about 140 lbs, but by next season I will probably have put on a lot more in muscle (P90X ftw). So my first dilemma is: do I buy this year and get a 181cm ski, or next year and get a 178cm ski? Keep...

    Minnesota Nice

    Once upon a time, a certain NS front page article said that Minnesota Nice would be free on the interwebs. Now I can't find it anywhere, not even for sale. I can't even find CPM Films or Fresh Productions. I want to see this movie! Can anyone lend a hand?

    LDC Pants

    I'm looking for new pants, and I'm really interested in LDC's new Redux pant. I am 5'9" and usually wear size 30 x 30 or 32 x 30 pants (depending on the brand). The smallest size LDC makes is XL...don't ask me why...would these just be stupid big? I want baggy and loose, but not out of...

    Rocker Length

    Some of you may have read my thread from earlier in the week (A-Bangs vs. Rockers). I have decided to settle on the Rockers. But now the question is, what length should I get? They come in 171 cm and 181 cm. I am about 5'9" - 5'10" (175-178 cm), so I thought it would make sense to get them...

    Outdoor Graduation

    So I just finished watching it, and I really love what Voleurz did. They made a video that wasn't just a ski video or snowboard video, it had both, and some skating too. I thought that was an awesome concept. I won't lie, no matter how good a ski movie is, towards the end I almost always...

    A-Bangs or Rockers? (way different, I know, but read on...)

    So here's the deal: Essential facts: Height: 5'9" - 5'10" (not quite sure) Weight: roughly 143 pounds I ski mainly at Stratton, VT. I do a lot of park but that's really not my favorite thing to do. I love skiing pow, blasting cliffs (of course, there are none at Stratton, but I take what I...

    Look Pivot vs. Rossi FKS

    My question is, basically, are they the same thing with different names (and colors)? If not, how are they different?

    Jump building help?

    So my friends and I have a bag of rock salt, some shovels, our skis and boards, and 12+ inches of snow that fell on Saturday and Sunday. We want to build a hip that goes off to the side of a tee box on our local golf course so that we land on the banked other face of the tee box. We only have...

    Final Cut Pro help

    I just snagged Final Cut Pro 7 using some alternative methods, if you will, and am teaching myself how to use it. Now, I understand that this is a monumental task, so does anyone know any good, in-depth online tutorials for me to learn from, preferably for not too much money (or none at all)?

    Hip Protection

    So last season, and this summer, my hips took a beating, largely on rails. And when I say a beating, I'm talking about dinner-plate sized bruises, the inability to wear jeans because my thigh was too swollen, trouble sitting, standing and walking, all of that. So I'm looking for armor that...

    Honestly, World?

    It's 12:55 AM. I am going to be in school tomorrow from 7:10 AM to 9:10 PM. And I'm still awake. I was falling asleep in school today, falling asleep when I got home and when I was trying to do my work, and now I'm WIDE FUCKING AWAKE. I'll be up until 1:30, lying in bed thinking about...

    NS, I need some advice.

    So here's the story. It involves two girls, named Annie and Jess, and me. So basically where I stand right now is as follows: I've liked Jess for a while, but she had a boyfriend for over a year so I put it out of my mind. I also had a girlfriend, who I loved (for a time, anyway), so I...

    Name these gloves, I'm desperate!

    So I was browsing them interwebs a few nights ago, looking for nothing in particular, when I found out about tjschiller.com. I browsed my way over there and saw the picture on the front page, a picture of TJ hanging onto the wing of Chug's airplane. When I looked at TJ's hand, I saw this...
