    2014 Atomic Nomad [S] Temper Ti (gear for next year)

    Yes they did own the free-flex thing for years when Atomic bought ESS. ARC technology has more to do with the ski and binding interface as the ski is designed to bow/bend from the middle.

    2014 Atomic Nomad [S] Temper Ti (gear for next year)

    Not as well as the Blackeye Ti or Crimson Ti but as they say you need to choose your weapons. If you're talking about the guys from First Trax they were making some sick turns on that ski!

    2014 Atomic Nomad [S] Temper Ti (gear for next year)

    Great day of Ski Testing at Okemo today as Atomic rolls out it's new 2014 Nomad series with ARC technology. We had better than average groomed New England conditions with a surface you could set an edge into. My most favorite ski of the Day was the all-new Nomad [S] Temper Ti (173 cm)...

    Official Poll: How should Out of Bounds Skiers be punished?

    Charge them for the rescue like they do in Europe! I think they checked this snowboarder's credit limit before pulling him off this cliff in Zermatt.

    Sugarbush 12/13/12 Just Like Groundhog Day

    Sugarbush has some amazing skiing but you have to wait till there's enough natural snow. Once the Castlerock area is open, and they're reporting excellent conditions at Mad River Glen, you'll won't want to miss Sugarbush. Looks like some snow is heading our way Sunday!

    Sugarbush 12/13/12 Just Like Groundhog Day

    Went back to Sugarbush again today for a repeat of yesterday's performance. Packed Powder conditions and Jester and Downspout skied real well. The guns were off on the lower mountain so lower Jester and Domino was nice too. Sugarbush has started making snow under the Heaven's Gate chair as...

    Sugarbush 12/12/12

    What a great morning to ski with the Sun out. The snow guns were on but easy to avoid and we had a nice packed powder surface. Upper Jester skied real well as did Downspout. Saw a few people dive into Upper Organgrinder which had the guns going but I wasn't motivated to do so. Plan on checking...

    How far away is the closest ski area to you?

    Now that I moved to Berlin VT I'm looking forward to this winter. About 40 mins 30miles to Sugarbush. About 50 mins 34 miles to Stowe, and Bolton is 27.5 miles away. I can almost taste the snow!

    Is Magic Mountain a Resort or Not??

    I was thinking Wildcat is the only pure ski area other than smaller places like Ski Sundown, Cochrans, Middlebury. Magic has all those on Mountain condos and homes and people come up and hang for the weekend. They even have snow tubbing, Yikes!!

    Keep getting flats

    The Tube will give you clues! Line the logo of the tire up with the valve stem when you put new tubes in. When you puncture is it on the outside of the tube or the inside? If it's on the inside check out the rim strip. Do you pump your tires up every day? If not you may be getting a snake bite.

    Is Magic Mountain a Resort or Not??

    As seen on FaceBook "Magic ranked #4 by readers of 2012 Snoweast Magazine as "favorite classic resort" in the east...We're #2 in VT behind our good friends Mad River Glen. Not sure "classic" and "resort" go together though...." I love Magic Mountain don't get me wrong, but aren't they a...
