Major respect for Josh Dueck. Truly mind blowing stuff

Back in 2004, a flip on skis gone tragically wrong broke Josh Dueck's back and left him as a T11 -- full paraplegic. For the past 8 years one of his dreams h...

Yay - we made it into The Vancouver Province's Holiday Guide. Apparently our skis are a great Christmas gift for a student! Couldn't agree more :)

College students may just be the easiest people to buy for at Christmas, considering their lack of budget.

Cypress first and now Whistler, Baker, Grouse are all open, with (a lot) more snow in the forecast!!

All our skis are still at $550, they're going fast, so get yourself a pair before they're all gone

The Kensho made it to the "Top Skipass" for this week! Not bad for a little "unknown" Canadian ski company, eh?

What??? November 8 opening at Cypress this year? Sounds a little early as it's just started snowing up there... But the snow guns have been blasting so not impossible!

if you haven't looked at the Whistler webcams today yet, and intend to be able to get any work done today... then DON'T DO IT!! Do not click on that link if you want your focus to remain on non-snow activities. You have been warned

A lot of movies about "extreme" sports seem to portray semi-suicidal loose cannons - fast music, crazy stunts and little time for the thought process of the super-humans at play. This is not one of those movies. Beautifully filmed, mind-blowing, insightful. Amazing.

Hey Vimeo, We would like to offer you this excerpt from our feature documentary - Highlining pioneers Tancrede and Julien have come to the spectacular and atmospheric cliffs of the norwegian fjords to try and turn their ultimate dream into reality. The...

Dr. Jessica Meir is doing some really cool research at the University of British Columbia. She's studying bar-headed geese - birds that migrate over the Himalayas! Check out the video, the segment starts at 1:33

And when she's not busy in the wind tunnel with her birds, you can find her touring around Vancouver on a pair of Satori 165!

Rebuild a classic cathedral, go ice-climbing, and get up-close and extreme with nature! That, and much more, in this Daily Planet!

When we talk about the Satori being a mega versatile ski we want to make sure that we can back that up with experimental evidence.

Evidence of outstanding versatility provided herein! Yep, they work on snow at all temperatures :)
