    At what point is sponsorhip not worth it?

    Hey you nailed it right on the head. Many of you forget you work for a company. You have a contract. You are looking out for your interests and they are looking for theirs. The point of a contract is to ensure both parties agree on specific points and commit to those points. The trend of...

    Today i am 24 years old

    Haha - yeah, she just turned three and we've had her on skis since she could walk. Now I just need to start yelling at her to make pizzas and turn - ya know, being that guy! ;)

    WTB: Used 2009 Armada JPvsJulien

    Dood, you can't even get a pair of these directly from Armada - and that's new! Reason you can't is because this is officially the hottest ski on the market right now. But good luck dood! I'd laugh my ass off if some random person just hooked it up for ya. I love when that happens.

    Today i am 24 years old

    me = married @ 21, father @ 25, college (again) @ 28 and headed straight for 29 while happily anticipating another awesome winter! Doesn't matter if you're cougering or coming of age, the feeling of approaching winter and improving as a skier w/ your friends and family will never get old. It's...

    Kris Ostness Resets the Bar Again

    44 Days is clearly the result of several key things - incredibly talented skiers and filmers/production crews who are allowed to work together with freedom to the best of their abilities. The final result is an incredible film. I've never seen any of those angles before. I also noticed the...

    New Icer Air Jump

    The jump was built on scaffolding. That's pretty sketchy. It was an improvement on the second year, but still sketchy. This new jump idea sounds like there are more options and something different than just a big air contest. I think it's a move in the right direction.

    New Icer Air Jump

    I'm stoked to see this. Fillmore was super unique and really captured the location (alkatraz, cable cars, golden gate) in the back drop. The last two years were just sketchy. I remember the riders saying you had to wait for the jump and landing to stop moving from the wind so they could drop in...

    Slandis on Oakley!

    Ok, lets start hating on someone who is willing to DO what it takes to make it. Then really hate when he actually makes it! Hahaha. Rather than hating, maybe you should take notes on how to make it in this industry. Mr. Tanaka is positioning himself w/ long-term opportunities. ATTA BOY SLANDIS!

    TJ Schiller no longer on armada?

    I think it would be safe to assume, in your own defense, you do not have any experience working in this industry. This is a job. People get paid to do what you read about. We can't live like minimalists just because it's "core" or of a commitment to a certain company. We all love to ski, but we...

    About Buyers

    Yeah - people are actually pretty snooty over there. Helpful if you fit their criteria and get into the cool bunch. Much more open here.

    JONAHS!!!!

    I'd pay around $100-$150, but I'll only be visiting for like a week. I'd do more than that if I still lived in town. But I think you could sell a lot of those to vacationers.Please make this a reality by early December.

    About Buyers

    Just thought I should mention I have to take back some things about selling on this site. I just sold a bunch of stuff on here - trekkers, AR6s, Look P12s, Armada JJs and old solly binders. I tried selling the stuff to the TGR crowd and people just complained and looked for "bro" prices that...

    Snowbladers tearing up Breck

    Those kids absolutely throw down. But as long as everyone here thinks shoes with wheels and really short skis are something to hold against someone, I will too.

    Snowbladers tearing up Breck

    Whether snowlerblading, ski boarding, snowboarding or skiing is cool is irrelevant. Clearly what's important is how cool it is to dislike someone else's sport. Does this really disturb everyone that much? Disrespect, whether snaking peoples runs or hating, isn't exclusive to ski boarders - just...

    A legend speaks . . .

    You've got a perfect opportunity to appologize here - and some advice to take advantage of it. DC or not - you should never disrespect anyone like that. Have some decency.

    The bills killed us

    I'm from upstate NY. What a welcome to the PNW. Sorry bout that one guys. I was sitting in a bar full of Seahawks fans getting dirty looks. But it's hard to hate on Bills fans - we've definitely seen our bad days.
