Catching Up With Phil Casabon: Off The Leash, The Culture & More!

We wanted to make one Off The Leash for each season. Milo: Who do you draw inspiration from in skiing, across all generations? Things have evolved so much because of his event. I grew up around them and still look up to them for inspiration. His unique style, creative spot selection and dedication has set him apart for years. His work with Brady Perron has been a symbiosis that has gifted us so much great skiing....

Can OUTSIDE live up to the Warren Miller Name?

Its a well-crafted tribute to a legend in the ski film industry. Warren Miller didnt just make ski movies; he innovated them. These films often lack the essence of what skiing and riding truly mean to people. Warren Miller captured that essence not only through his filming but also through his editing and narration. His voice is arguably his most iconic traitmethodical, seemingly casual, yet profound. The Warren Miller name still commands authority in the world of ski films, but others are catching up....

The Best Outerwear For 2024/2025

Thankfully, that made for a perfect outerwear test. https://www.newschoolers.com/videos/watch/1097511/--YouTubeChoosing outerwear is pretty tricky and of course, personal taste plays a big role. We think these are the major questions: Insulated or Shell? In general, we prefer shells, simple as that. However, if you tend to get cold easily, an insulated jacket can really hit the spot. Do you actually need a kit that will keep you dry in a typhoon?...

CAST Your Eyes On The New Freetour 2.0

Here at Newschoolers, we love the Pivot/FKS. Its a binding we know, love, and trust. Then we heard about CAST. Pivots downhill and pins uphill? It seemed too good to be true, but it wasnt. They existed, they worked, and they had some issues, but no hybrid binding is without them. There was a limited run of the CAST 2.0 midway through last season and they flew off the shelves....

The Best Powder Skis For 2024/2025

Cover: Finn O’Driscoll. Some handle this better than others. We rocked up to Sunshine Village with no snow in the forecast and somehow, got lucky. As we rolled into town, the skies unexpectedly darkened and delivered a serving of white gold. Was it bottomless blower? Not exactly, but it was enough to give these big sticks a proper thrashing. https://www.newschoolers.com/videos/watch/1097317/Comment-from--ryanvdonk87---YouTube So how do you choose a powder ski? Well, use your common sense for one thing....

"rub some dirt on it" review

If you havent, you should. Even if you have, you might as well watch it again. Dan summarized it well as the rarest cut to date. No concrete ledge or wooden handrail is safe from these boys. One of my favorite aspects of this video is the creative spot selection. Despite being 16 minutes long, this video is well-paced and intelligently edited, feeling shorter as a result. In fact, the whole soundtrack is solid and the songs flow nicely together....

The Best All-Mountain Skis For 2024/2025

https://www.newschoolers.com/videos/watch/1096985/--YouTube So how do you choose an all-mountain ski? Well, use your common sense for one thing. If you ski a lot of fresh snow and powder, a wider daily driver is going to suit. Do you have other skis in your quiver? If you have a pow ski, the float won’t matter so much. It isn’t rocket science. How heavy are you and how hard do you ski? Weight and strength, along with technique matter way more for ski choice than height....

The Best Park Skis For 2024/2025

Newschoolers Gear Week at Sunshine Village has become an annual fixture at this point. We’re really stoked with how it has all turned out, and we hope you are too. The Chronics however are truly the same ski, just different widths. However it also contains a shitload (technical term) of carbon. Line Chronic 101 Same ski as the 94, just a bit wider. If you really like to spin, you’ll likely be happier on the 94....

Free-Skiing, Zero Zone Becomes Bozeman's First Permanant City Hike Park

I know that its been a while since youve heard from us. Well, that apartment flooded, and that hike park in the mountains no longer exists. But now we’ve finally reached a point where I can feel confident to share an update. And sometimes, that takes a couple of ski seasons. (Average view at the HQ, all of our rails still are made by hand in that garage. Photo shot by me....
