    Bose Soundsport Wireless headphones

    Looking to replace my standard apple-issue wired headphones with some bluetooth headphones. Anyone use the Bose soundsports? Any issues under a ski helmet? I have heard they protrude out quite a bit and might be a problem under a helmet. Thanks!

    FS 2014 Blizzard Brahma 180 cm

    Selling my 180 cm Brahmas that were purchased a month ago and are in virtually perfect shape other than having been used several times in the last month. Selling because I just picked up the same skis in a 173, which is the size I should have bought to begin with. Asking $350 w/o bindings...

    East Coast Two Ski Quiver: Rossi Soul 7 and ?

    I'm 37, 5'11" and 175 lbs. I stared skiing a few years ago on Atomic Nomads (171) and too-big Salomon boots. Been skiing a lot this year (30 days in VT so far) and have gotten much better. I quickly realized the limits of my Atomics and picked up some Rossi Soul 7s (180) and soon after some...

    Driving to the Mountain

    When are people leaving to get wherever they are going? Any idea if VT will plough I-89 on a schedule or do they treat ahead and then wait until the storm is mostly over to get out there?

    Rossi Soul 7

    Couldn't find another thread on the topic so throwing out the question: anyone been skiing the Soul 7s on the east coast? A lot of reviews refer to it as a west coast, soft snow ski. To me it looks like a great snow day ski regardless of location -- given it's dimensions, not great on hardpack...

    Ski Tuning Class in Boston

    I'd like to start tuning and waxing my own skis this year but have never done it. Does anyone know if there is a ski shop/REI in the Boston-area that holds tuning classes? There are lots of great videos on the web but there's no substitute for seeing it done in person. Thanks

    Hi My family (me, wife and three year old) are considering new cars to get us to the snow (Sugarbush, I hope) reliably and safely most weekends next season. We're trying to decide between the Toyota Highlander and Jeep Grand Cherokee. Anyone have any thoughts on these and on one versus the...

    Advice for Sugarbush Condo Rental?

    Hi Hoping to rent a condo next season at Sugarbush. Any insight out there regarding the particular condo complexes? We were thinking Snow Creek but I think I want to save a few $$ and just ride the shuttle. Thanks for any advice.

    Looking to Split a Condo/House at Sugarbush Next Season (2013-2014)

    I know it's very early but hoping it's better to get the ball rolling while people are still skiing rather than in the summer when it's the farthest thing from everyone's mind. My wife and I and young son are hoping to find a condo or house as near as possible to Sugarbush (Lincoln/South) to...

    Best route to Sugarbush on Friday

    What's the best route from 89 to Sugarbush (coming from Boston) if it is snowing on Friday evening? I.e., which exit is best? I have a 2 WD station wagon and don't want to get stuck with my wife and two year old son in the car. Thanks for any suggestions.
