    Squaw Tearing Down Mainline Pipe

    Anyone else hear about this? I posted something in the Regionals as well. Looks like upper management at Squaw wants to tear down the Mainline Superpipe after the 48 Straight. Why would you wreck one of the best pipes in North America? Plus they're considering not building Mainline park this...

    Squaw Mainline????

    So word on the street says Squaw upper management wants to wipe out the Mainline Pipe after the 48 Straight. I honestly don't see how that makes sense. Why would you knock down one of the best pipes in North America? Their parks are killing it right now (big ups Tom) w/ a ton of great jumps and...

    Ski wax harmful to environment

    I got some Purl Wax from the tradeshow last week. I used it last night and it's awesome. I'd recommend it to anyone.

    How "green" are skis?

    Armada uses 100 percent sustainable wood cores. FESC is a European organization that governs sustainable wood. Sustainable wood is grown for the purpose of cutting down and does not interfere with natural forests. As for recycling skis, Europe is already addressing this issue. I haven't been...

    One of my skis taken/missing from Boreal yesterday...

    I'll give you another pair of fugitives for $100 w/ binders. Lemme know if you're in a bind and we'll work something out. Who the fuck steals someone else's stuff, and just one ski at that? My wife and I had our kid up at Boreal w/ another family a few weeks back. Someone stole my 2-year-old's...

    In-bounds avalanche @ kirkwood

    I was there today and all weekend. Someone responded to that thread in TGR saying it was along that Sentinel Bowl traverse area. I was traversing and dropping in that entire area in power-lap mode all three days. I'm kind of reconsidering heading back there tomorrow.

    Too Legit to Quit?

    Anybody see what they're pushing skier's left of the superpipe? Looks 70+ with a monster steep landing. It's kinda hard to think about jumps w/ all this snow though.

    Depression

    Get at that shit quick. Depression is pretty hard to self-diagnose. You just have to force yourself to get back into the swing of things. If you can't, you should get some help. Who cares what someone else calls you. It's your problem and no one else's. Check out w/ a doctor and do whatever you...

    TJ's Spot

    Mono ski is the proper term for sit-ski. Those guys charge like no other.

    Armada Pipecleaner BARELY SKIED

    I just mounted my 176 AR6 at true center. Now I wish I had the 181. It's considerably different. So don't stray away if you normally ride something smaller and want to mount these true center. I'm on my third pair of PCs and they're the funnest park skis ever. If you like fast you'll really...

    Nordica gets Sick

    I'm gonna have to see how the lineup is in a couple weeks. So far I haven't heard anything about their construction, performance or design - just graphics. Tons of skis look sweet and don't ski any better. Also, why change if something works? A lot of people just change something to change it...

    Helmet vs. No helmet

    My buddy just gave me one. I rocked the helmet for the first ever. I've been skiing since 93. I didn't even notice I had it on. I will wear one from here on out. There's just no reason not to.

    HEY NOHAJS--Whats the deal at alpine?

    I miss Alpine sooooooo much. No other place in Tahoe just has everything you need for any day in any conditions. What a bummer. I was hoping to ride there this year.

    Show the love guys...

    Well I'm not stranger to airing out the dirty laundry on NS.com. This was just another in a long line of people calling others out in broad daylight. Anyone remember when Berman called out MSP by name? That shit was classic. While the Boreal vs. Alpine (Eric vs. Jonahs) thread wasn't at that...
