Ski Ballet is kind of the overused tidbit that ski people invoke when trying to capture the ridiculous skiing zeitgeist of the mid to late 80s to early 90s. Thankfully, ski ballet didn’t stand a chance once skiing started to get cool again in the mid 90s. But this doesn’t mean we shouldn’t celebrate it every now and again.

No, not Shaun White. Sadly, the Olympics are almost over. I’m talking about snow, baby. Once again, my predictions for an especially snowy winter are proving true. The western corridor of New England and parts of our fair state are going to get bombed on in the next 48 hours. Easily 12+ inches in many [...]

I’ve been on a new freelance gig lately and have not had the free time, to which I’m accustomed, to populate this blog with necessary news nuggets. Apologies to my readers. Oh, I was also skiing for 10 or so days and didn’t spend much time at a computer. I did slay icy conditions from Colorado [...]

This post is probably a lot more pro skiing-ski scene information than my average regular reader is going to be interested in. Then again, I don’t think I have many ‘average’ readers left, so there.

Not to say I told you so but to say I told you so; Please recall my prediction from this post a few weeks ago:
“Well it’s an el nino year and I am going to bet that we’re about to have an [sic] decently snowy winter in the Northeast. This, I predict, will also bring [...]

Yes, this blog has officially been hijacked for the winter by my inner ski bumm. Sorry, but that’s what I feel like writing about.
In the video below is one of the ballsiest, most unnatural ski hucks (tricks) I’ve ever seen. It’s a switch double backflip; which is just plain crazy. A switch backflip is much [...]

Every year, right about now, I get to the point where I’ve got one thing on my mind. Skiing. AKA shredding the gnar; aka slaying pow—if I may foist a few ludicrous colloquialisms from the free-ski scene on to you. By no coincidence, this is also the time of the year when ski film makers [...]
