    Buying Suspicious Skis

    Have any of you ever been made an offer on gear that seems like it could be stolen? Is there a right way to deal with this sort of thing?

    Skiing has been an instrumental part of my life for as long as I remember. I actually couldn't imagine what I would do all winter without it. Last winter gave a lot of us a glimpse into what our lives might be like should the snow disappear. For many skiers December had ended and January was...

    Salomon X3 120 boots 28.5 -- PRICE DROP --

    Selling a pair of Salomon X3 120's.

    Skiing with strangers

    The best moment that I have ever had on skis is when I met two really stoked snowboarders on the lift and skied one run with them. Conditions were terrible but we just ripped the shit out of the resort. No day with my buddies has ever compared. Anyone else feel this way or have had a similar...

    Why Freeskiing doesn't belong in the Olympics

    So while I was lapping the park today, I was on the lift with a middle-aged dude who was taking his wife/girlfriend skiing for the first time. Judging by the dude's equipment (nice) I assumed that he was a fairly advanced/knowledgeable skier. As we go over the park, the lady asks what it is and...

    Landing into skis

    So by now everybody has seen this video I know this is fake but now I'm wondering of a trick like this is possible on skis. its totally possible to jump in boots and stomp into skis, although it would be stupid difficult to get the landing right. Also, you could use poles to ditch both skis on...
