    Global warming commercial

    It is not happening slowly for your information. In 10 years we have risen 1 degree in average global temperature. The difference between an ice age and an interglacial period is 5 degrees. So, in 10 yeas we have progressed 20% fo what it takes to cause an ice age. I don't think that is very...

    One of, if not THE MOST underrated skier in the USA

    yea, this guy actually is one of the best skiers i have ever seen. I rode a few days with him at June 2 years ago. He was throwing the sickest cork 3's off the step downs on Gunsmoke i have ever seen. He wouldn then go into the best cork nines on 70-90 foot jumps. Plus, he rules outside the...

    Bristol, you are right on. Phillip has no clue what he is talking about. Phillip, why don't you actually go to school for a few years and maybe study meterology and then open your mouth again only to retract all your statements here. If the conveyor belt actually stopped, which it possibly...

    I hate straight airs and they scare the poop outa me. anyone with me?!

    Hey Guys and Gals, The reason you are freaked out on straight airs is because that you are not setting the jump right. When you are approaching the jump, you should have your knees bent, pressing forward in your ski boots, and your hands in front of you. Near the lip of the jump, you pop off...

    Ohakune, NZ Skiing

    DUde, its totally worth it.....You have to remember you will be arriving in the dead of winter. July to September is prime time for skiing just a couple of mins away from you. Plus, in your time off, going down to the south island will blow your mind. Do, it, whatever it costs.

    Not sure if the shop fucked up

    Yeah, i agree that there is a good chance that they might flip him the bird, but he shouldn't stand for that. If the shop didn't have the ski, it should either be replaced with a similiar one in stock if the guy doens't care, or a voucher for a comparable amount to buying a new ski. Sending it...

    Not sure if the shop fucked up

    That is not true either. If the shop used the wrong sized screw, then it is their fault. You would be able to easily tell if he ironed it and burned and bubbled the base, it would be a darker color. If he asked for no plate and a different screw, and shop just put no plate and same screw...

    Not sure if the shop fucked up

    No man, take em bak, they have to give you new skis. With the base bubbled it means that they have drilled all the way through the core, and your ski is compromised. Everytime you redrill a hole, or refill, it will not be as good as the first time it was done. You are most likely to have your...

    Trampoliness

    if you were to buy one of those trampolines it would cost you a good 2,200. The bed is extremely expensive, but the springs are crucial as well. Normal springs arent strong enough for that kind of bed, they need to be a lot bigger. hope that helps.

    Sammy c.

    who cares about a stupid interview. I have so much respect for sammy. He just gave all his prize money to Marc Andre, someone who really needs it. That says a lot more than any interview. So young, yet shows so much maturity. Keep it up Sammy! You got my vote!

    Can ayone help with my 3's?

    Ummm....guys.... This person is talking about skiing unless I am mistaken. He said he ALSO snowboards, not that he is asking about snowboarding. To help with your 3's: The reason you are falling back is because when you go off the lip you are letting the projection of the lip of the jump...
