The Tahoe native tells us how most ski judges still ride the courses themselves. I know Ive never spoken to such an interesting judge… Its really an expensive and trying process. By the time he was 23, he was completely over competing. Its a pretty easy transition. Its cool when athletes can go from competitive skiing, directly into judging. He started judging in 2011/12. Were a vessel for their purpose....

Brands send us the sticks and we spend a solid chunk of our own seasons shredding them. Except that now, after five years, the EDollo has received its first ever changes. There are also two brand new sizes, a 172 and a 164. Shape/Flex/Construction The new EDollo retains the same rocker profile and footprint as the previous model. The 19 ski does have more camber underfoot than previous models though....

Along with that we learn Scott is a collector of sorts. Scott didn’t have any specific career goals or aspirations to get where he is.

Roofbox Reviews: Our no bullshit, in-depth ski reviews, by skiers for skiers. Brands send us the sticks and we spend a solid chunk of our own seasons shredding them. Hood Conditions skied:Hardpack, spring slush, granular slush, street, and rain. Intro: As sunny days and spring laps unfolded at the glorious Mt. Hood, the next ski in my review lineup was the Liberty Helix 98. The orange highlights pop in contrast to the black and grey and I think the skis look great....

The King of Afterbang has just kept on innovating in the 12 years since that game-changing video. The Pretzel man was born and raised in Pittsburgh, hardly a ski town. Its really just a hill, not really a mountain. Theyve now got a great park scene, but it was always at least somewhere for me to ski. I saw skateboarders, snowboarders and other sports doing railslides. If I slide down this hill I wonder if I can do a railslide?...

Cover Photo: Jesper frontflips off. The most important thing to go down today was the debut of a new judging format. Runs were judged section-by-section echoing the system used in snowboarding for some years now, and on overall impression. Each skier gets a trick score that then forms part of their overall score. It actually looked fun to ride though. Conditions were solid too, with the finals being moved from Saturday to Friday to avoid an incoming storm....

The 25-year-old Swede took the ski world by storm, winning Level 1s SuperUnknown. He has since gone on to make waves in the ski industry. But did you know he learned to ski with the help (or not) of a few dogs? He does, however, remember the dogs! They werent too hyped on me because I always fell, because I was super little. They didnt really want to stop, so they would just keep going....

These are the skis we’d choose to ride, and that’s the best endorsement we can give. “- Lemuel (Full review, click here). Not that much has changed since the old EDollo, but I prefer the slightly softer tail. It gives the ski a more balanced feel despite having rockered tips and cambered tails. They are at their heart, a soft, buttery ski....

1994 was also the year that Grouse Mountain opened their first terrain park. We got the story direct from the people who lived it. The first park at Grouse was 1994. They had a little budget for some events and a little budget for cat-time. Back in the 90s, the early days of snowboarding at Grouse. _ Then came industry-wide insurance issues. It was 1999 when they started back up at Grouse....
