I cracked ribs on the dfd at Big Snow a couple weeks ago and I broke my fifth metacarpal clean which required plates and screws a year and a half ago at snowbowl. What frequency of injury do you tolerate? Would you say these are a big L or just a part of pushing myself?

What are the core outerwear brands these days? I’m in the market for some childishly baggy pants and it seems like my best options are the Chinese brands from snowears. Is the sport so far gone that we don’t even have core brands that shamelessly mark up the same Chinese product that can now be...

IS THERE ONE? pretty straightforward

I would say a good 99-100% of the time that I am at the hill I love skiing. Don't you know what I mean? Sometimes you just love it, always.

Process analysis paper I wrote for Comp 101 class. Thought NS might find it a little entertaining. How to Ski Above 0ºC Everyone has some activity or pastime that they look forward to doing at every possible juncture. For some, this might be shopping, or gambling, or dancing, reading...

simple enough, how do I do it? maybe it's more of a question of where do I look. but I pretty much can only do a spin OR a flip. can do most non spinning inverts

apparently it is supposed to rain in southern vermont tomorrow afternoon (ludlow area) I am just wondering if this will mean snow above the snow line or if I should just change my ski plans? I am speaking of ludlow or bondville. okemo and stratton respectively

how do you strap YOUR boots? I ski in hot doggers, I strap the power strap under the tongue usually, and then clip from top to bottom. still get shin splints sometimes from back seat landings but it's unavoidable

So after three years of funding my ski ventures on my own, my parents have decided that skis and bindings for christmas are an appropriate present. I want to get some good skis that will last, but at the same time I need to be somewhat concerned with price. I have skied on 09' 169 k2 silencers...

I have had my skis (08' k2 silencers, red target graphic) since I started skiing ~4 years ago. They have been my only pair, and they have received some abuse both intentional and unintentional. Skiing over parking lots, salt and sand, plenty of rails, grass, some pavement. At this point, any...

I am getting the itch like no other, it's been months and skateboarding tramping and the rest of this off snow business just aint cutting it anymore. When do you think your first day on snow will be this fall? I expect to be getting an ice rink setup together sometime soon, but besides that...

SO SICK! Great vibe, great east coast skiing, great music, and great bumps some next level urban and tricks thrown down (pay attention in the japan segment!) it's also on itunes now for good definitely worth the buy

not in regionals there is a winter storm watch for elevations above 2000' tomorrow in the new york, vt, ma, ct area tomorrow, think anywhere will be skiiable? it's pissing rain outside my door right now and i'm in southern ny

It all begins 2 long years ago, when I first descended into the caves of freeskiing. I ventured into the place called the "Ski Shop". I encountered a terrible beast inside, an inexperienced boot fitter. I walked out about 5 minutes later with new skis (k2 silencers, 07') and new boots (28.5...

I am in the market for some new boots. Originally I was going to take a trip up to the Ski Rack in Burlington, but seeing as it is a 5 hour drive for me, it isn't so easy to fit that into my schedule. Where are the best boot fitters in/around the hudson valley area? I wont mind making a trip as...

Well, I thought I had heard good things about them, seen a few people reppin' the outerwear, but it's been over 2 weeks now since I ordered my gear. This makes me wonder, are they not legit? Where are my tall t's and hats at? Even if I hadn't payed for shipping they should be here already...

How exactly, do non powder skis handle in the powder compared to an equal length ski? I have silencers at the moment, and have only had two powder days thus far in my skiing career. I managed to stay afloat, but in nothing more than shin deep pow. It was easy, but I definitely encountered more...

How long has it taken you to get to your current level of ski ability. Why? What is your current level of ski ability? I've been skiing for a year now. I feel like i've progressed pretty quickly for my level of ability. I can ski almost all terrains now short of slaying the moguls and shredding...

Just another "what ski should I buy"? thread. I'm a fairly aggressive east coast skiier, got about 35 days in last year, upping the count this year considerably. (no school and I will be working at a ski hill) I'm looking for a ski that will excel all over the mountain, keeping in mind what is...
