Im actually leaving saturday morning around 5 am, from Sudbury. Im just wondering what everyone has already bought, or will have bought by sunday. Pretty much post the deals you scored, as in product and price, even what you saved!
 
nothing. I was kinda rushed and didn't see much that caught my eye.

Where was idea? I was lookin for it
 
red hifi and some anons

if you are at the show drop by corbets

also if anyone can do me a faver at the nomis stand place they are giving white bandanas the say support nomis in blue they are free, if wen i went to get one there where none left if someone can get me one ill pay them (they are free)
 
i picked up idea and PNW. 

i was otherwise fairly unimpressed with the retail selection, at least with the girls stuff..

 
Believe, Seven Sunny Days

Blue 5x7 pass

Scratch Sprayer skis

Going back with the girl Sunday, might look at helmets, possibly clothing, but I didn't see too much outerwear my size I was interested in on Thursday.
 
enjoy, photoplay

i have to say, i was kinda disappointed in enjoy, it wasnt as good as i expected, to me, kinda seemed like a amature movie trying to be pro, but it had a couple real good parts
 
K, well I got the following:

From corbetts:

Orage Masters jacket, lime green and forest green, 215$

From boardsports:

Sessions tight pants, black/pinstripe, 100$

Ski Swap:

Scratch Sprayer FS, 174cm, no bindings, 75$

I also got my FKS mounted on my Ar6's while in Toronto.
 
Mustn't have looked very hard. I found PLENTY of deals. They had Dynamic Slayers for 200$, Atomic Thugs for 400$, and jacket at insane prices. It was definately worth the 8 hour drive!
 
Orage York Jacket and Noho pant from skis and bikes, two cheep ass ski bags from the swap, and idea
 
no shit. they were everywhere!

and what the fuck was up with people walking around in their outerwear, it looks rediculous
 
it was alright. i got picture this. Movies there are so overpriced though. 

good thing i got in for free both days.
 
i liked enjoy. nothing mind blowing, but still fun.

i also got a touque and screenplay by two plank.

i saw some stuff i woulda liked, but i had self control.
 
you beat me aswell, i was also going to bust a "i got (random STD) at the ski show" remark. damnit. anyways, i got some phenoms from corbetts. i was kinda rushed and didnt really see anything eye catching either. and yea, nomis became officially played out during that ski show. like it was popular before, but every damn vendor had a nomis rack with the same striped/plaid hoodies. and every kid was wearing some other variety of nomis hoodie...it's sad how the metephorical nomis flame is burning itself out so fast.
 
picked up a two year sub to SKIER

still contemplating the TJ Schiller jacket from Orage. skis and what not will come later on

 
Special Blend Principal Group jacket in Brown Shepard Weave, and a pair of brown Orage pants, one of the Nomis hoodies, tons of swag, some discount copupons, and my buddy got a brand new pair of scratches for 450 with bindings, 181
 
i was there all day sunday and was not empressed with what i saw. but this is most likley becasue all the deals are gone by sat night anyways. but ow well.

my shop was sellin dynamic slayers for 329.00$ with the big trouble binding. most likley the best deal there.

the thugs were o so tempting...the girl was like...oh yea everyone needs a 192 pow ski...and i was like...pfft. i do need a new park ski...lol

but 400 without binding isnt all that impressive,

i didnt liek it how only head skis were there though. that was fuckin gay.

w.e see you next year ski show thread.
 
ya I actually was talking to the head guy by the twins for a while, he was pretty chill. I remember guys like him when Im looking at skis to buy
 
if its the one i talked to, i made a comment about how everyone thought the girl on jons ski was his girlfriend, and then the guy was like "thats just an NS rumour" i was like hmm good call.

and then i cut my finger on the his ski. i may actually have an std
 
other companies used to come but it's pretty much pointless for them to be there. what's the point in spending thousands of dollars to set up a booth in a show when you are not selling anything?

you can argue that it lets the consumer know more about the product but that really isn't the job of the company. it's the shop guys that inform people about new technologies and help customers pick skis.

ski companies really only need to be at SIA and NSIA where they're going to be doing bookings with shops.

the toronto ski and snowboard show has pretty much turned into a dumping ground for last year's product
 
The Nomis stuff i believe........i think its fucking sick stuff.....but to each their own.
 
no one said nomis wasent sick. They produce some really neat stuff. Just everyone at the show had the same plaid sweater on it was funny.
 
There stuff are nice but im too poor. Were you talking about the stripped hoody cuz it was $110 which is crazy.
 
Yeah, he was pretty cool. He was asking me if I was on NS, and what I though about Head skis. He gave me a wack of stickers and some buttons too!
