[Ben]

Welp, Louise opens November 7th!

Whats everyone do?

I have been skiing since I was 3, but I took up boardking a few years back and have sone it a half dozen times or so and Find it alot of fun. Not as fast as I am on skis (i'm a GS guy) but its quick to pick up.

Whats your tool for the Mountains?

This is the only positive thing I can think about when I think Winter.

I do both.

Skis: 1080's (Vincent Dorion Pro Model) with Nordica The Beast Boots and Salomon 912Ti Bindings.

Snowboard: Limited Factory Blank, still looking for new boots/bindings but I'll probably be on Salomon Boots and Ride Bindings.

Ok, this guy knows good shit when he sees it! or should I say, Skis it, haha

Thats a stiff boot for those skis, but I bet you get wicked edge response on them, small sacrifice

Well I would have a sweetass board, but I had to buy a new winter jacket... So it looks like any boarding that I do this year will be on a rented PEICE OF DONKEY SHIT!

I got those boots on a pro-deal the year before they came out so I never really had a chance to demo them or anything. It was a smokin deal though. If anyone is interested in any of my ski shit let me know cause I'm looking at boarding more this year and I have a set of Nordica xp70's I want to ride this year.

[GTS Jeff]

i ski. FUCK THE SNOWLERBLADERS!

i ski on some shitty dynastar renegades with shitty marker bindings and nice nice salomon xwave 10.0 boots.

[Davan]

I haven't boarded since I lived in Ontario... go figure. I move back to the mountains and haven't been out. What the fuck is wrong with me?

[euro tang]

I just bought a new board, its so sweet and I cant wait till the school break. I got a Burton Baron 167, technine bindings and Burton Boots, all new baby

[Phats]

I am so stoked for this year, I used to ski but I have been riding for about 6 years now. I got a Ride Zero Board with Burton Mission Bindings and Sims Boots, oh man, can't wait to get on the hill, I love winter well, sorta

stepins are a newbie thing designed for the nonhardcore. the board control isnt as instant and secure. the stiffer boots help, but they still dont compare to proper bindings. and besides, who wants to wear stiff ass boots when theyre snowboarding?

[bigboom]

i ride.

option booter with preston ex bindings...damn my size 13 feet push me to a wider board!

[Ekliptix]

Nice pics Ben.


I ride this, and hope to be doing some backcountry Snowboarding this season if I rent a board.
