Bought these in 2009 but I don't ski often so they have maybe 15 days on them. I bought them intending to ski and board with them but I didn't use them much on my snowboard. They fit fine on my F2...

I was in Tux, Austria last January. I knew little about the area except for Hintertux Glacier which is used for training by a lot of snowboard teams. I only went because a tradeshow (ISPO) was having...

We're getting out of Dupraz boards so clearing out remaining stock. I sent you an email with details.

Make sure you use the slow-cure epoxy not the 1 hour stuff. To damaged areas, I apply it sparingly and then hit the area with a heat gun. The heat thins the epoxy and draws it into fibres and core....

There's an AOS event called RBC Riders on at Centennial Park in Etobicoke on Saturday, March 10. AOS resources are stretched a bit thin this weekend so if anyone can come out to help, it would be...

I think what you've got there is a Sigi Grabner SG Race. If it's good enough for Sigi...

Does this mean you're no longer the President of the Virus Fan Club?

You should send this guy an email and direct him to extremecarving.com. That'll open his eyes.

The body position in that toeside photo is just brutal.

Be fast, you know how these SAC deals go.

Dude! The hostility! Got a good laugh from your backpack comment. I see guys with backpacks and camelbacks around here and it makes me chuckle. You need a drink of water, there's a...

Thanks guys but can you tell if a board is SL just by radius? Isn't the sidecut radius proportional to board length?

So a 10.2 doesn't seem that short if you consider the board length of only...

Anyone know if this is meant as a slalom board or a GS? I need a short GS board for a 110lb rider.

I'll chime in: -40 before windchill. Mt. Ste Anne, Quebec. New Year's Eve 1989. My entire face was covered and I still got frostbite on my ears. Nice thing though, we pretty much had the mountain...

F2s. A lot of World Cup riders are using them now. Simple and strong.

Arbor makes a bamboo board so I guess it can work. However, for the boutique builder, I'll bet that bamboo would be a pain in the butt to work with. It's very hard and tends to splinter rather than...

On my board, it was the metal edge that bent out of shape, not the wood core. The wood held up. Nothing wrong with wood construction in my not-so-knowledgeable opinion. Lots of money goes into ski...

I have another theory on why we break boards near the end of the season. I think it's more us than the snow. By late February, we are riding harder and putting more stress on our equipment. All my...

Thanks wavechaser. They have them for $16.95. Also found a few brand new pairs on eBay.

Here it is again with cracked goggles for dramatic effect.

I wasn't going to post this initially because I didn't want it to reflect negatively on the manufacturer but after seeing broken Doneks...

Must be some kind of epidemic. I stuffed the nose on my Coiler. Folded it so bad that the nose of the board came up and met my goggles, cracking the lens. Remarkably, the core and top sheet did...

I went there for the first time this season. I found the best mellow groomers were off King Con chair. There's a bunch of them that basically all run off the ridge. You can scout them from the...

I own these boots, rebranded Line Transfer, and they are the most comfortable, supportive boots I've ever owned. Just wanted to add that since Blax is an unfamiliar brand.

I keep the freeride gear for when I run SBX races and for noodling around with the kids. Also, you get the odd day when there's a ton of snow and carving gear just won't do. So I say hang onto the...

I actually think the best film-making these days is on TV, not at your local theatre. I think it all started with "The Sopranos" and "Band of Brothers", then "Deadwood", then "Rome" and...

I don't mind the violence if it's integral to the story. Take "Saving Private Ryan" for example and compare it to "The Longest Day". While I enjoy both movies immensely, Private Ryan really puts...
