      Looking forward to a hike in March. I have never been on skis. One winter sport I played alot was hockey.
      Enjoy your skiing D666.

          I'm in MN waiting for this lovely deep freeze to warm up some so I can finish working on my van.  As soon as that's done I'll be heading to Montana for a few weeks to ski it up, hoping to get some good snow at some point 🙂

            Getting up into the 30s allegedly by the weekend. Get those shorts out!

            Think it, be it.

              5*F today felt almost comfortable, this weekend will be amazing at low 30s

                Agreed. My firm shut down its offices both today and Monday. I'm like, "we're in Minnesota in winter. How is cold weather a surprise?" Of course I just threw on some Iron Heart and went about my day…

                Think it, be it.

                  They has delayed openings at local schools yesterday because of the cold. 0 degrees F. I have never heard of such a thing.

                          Probably the best boards on the market. Ohio, but I'm considering  a life change closer to mountains. I know people that live in silverton, so I have been hip to venture for awhile.

                            You couldn't go wrong if your life change took you closer to silverton. Such a cool mountain with some of the burliest terrain going. As a person who used to live in toronto and has been living in the mountains for about 5 years now I can wholeheartedly recommend it as one of the best lifestyle changes you'll ever make.

                                      Where are you planning on going in Montana? I've had a great time at big sky in the past, and have been meaning to go to Bridger bowl for a couple of years. Hopefully more snow coming this way soon, as I say that we just got 13cm overnight in fernie, so I'm sure Montana is on the same train.

                                        thanks for creating this thread Jeff…great move!

                                        so after my move to switzerland and years and years after my last ski-session, i'm now looking forward to hit the mountains every now and then!

                                        bought some gear already (x-post) and now i'm on the look out for a helmet and some goggles!

                                        @Finn666:

                                        …
                                        went on the hunt for skiing gear today. came home with this (and some more functional shirts for under the jacket), both items from Salomon:

                                        Salomon Sideways 3L Jacket

                                        Salomon Sideways 2 Pants

                                        anybody know something about Pro-Tec skiing helmets?

                                        especially about the pro-tec riot…

                                            I can't say I know much about the protec helmets. I'm currently using a Scott helmet with a MIPS lining. It's a new type of protection being used in bike and ski helmets that is super light, and much more effective when it comes to protecting your skull. POC does MIPS as well if you are into their aesthetic. Worth checking out for sure

                                            Edit: I can also second the smith iox. My girlfriend has them and it is all I can do not to take them when I walk out the door to go ride.
