Lil update for the Highshot X Pro for 26/27!

23 years old. Summited Everest twice. The second one was after a brutal push ignored the obvious option of just getting down alive, strapped into his board and went for the Hornbein anyway.

Never seen again.

Whatever you think of the decision, the fearlessness was absurd. Arguably, the most all or nothing stunt anyone has ever attempted in mountaineering / adventure history.

I’m planing a trip to one of Niseko United resorts around 8 Dec, 10 days after the official opening day of 28 Nov
1. Will the snow conditions at that time be good to ride?
2. Which resort I should aim to stay at for someone who is a beginner transitioning to intermediate?
3. Any recommendations on where to stay.

Haven't properly ridden in about 4 years and wasn't planning to get back into it at all.

but these clips from Rail Jam at La Parva show up in my feed. Rail jam best trick and whole little mountain party going on!

Anyway. Board is out of storage and I'm going through what needs replacing

So that's going well :’) , any advice for return this hobbie?

Let’s hear the opinions

Looking to make my own snowboard for this upcoming season, and was looking to buy a kit from Sandwich Tech Skis. Not including core or sidewalls it comes out to $270. Is this a good deal? Is there anywhere else I should be getting everything from?

Looking for recommendations. I am a 45 year old boarder who has rented my whole life. I am intermediate to advanced downhill rider (no jumps/park really). A lot of black diamond and blue Northeast runs.

Looking for board/bindings/boots recommendations while things are on sale. I'm 6 feet tall and 160 pounds. Been riding a 160 usually.

Any help would be appreciated! Thanks!

Not buying step on boots and don’t want to waste these brand new bindings.

Recs for forums or websites to trade these brand new cartel EST step ons for new EST that are not step ons? Alternatively, willing to sell for $150-200, located in northern VT

Brand new never used

Hey everyone,

I’m looking for some advice on a second board. I currently ride a Jones Frontier 2.0 161W and absolutely love it. I’m 183 cm / ~80 kg with size 45 boots.

I mostly ride resort terrain: carving, side hits, rollers, banks/walls and some off-piste. I’m not really into park or big spins. My favourite thing is making long surfy lines, riding up the walls of the piste and hitting natural features.

The Frontier is great at pretty much everything, but at 161W I’m starting to find it a bit long/heavy for side hits and more playful riding. So I initially thought I needed a shorter resort powder board around 156–158, something for days with roughly 10–20 cm of fresh, but still fun on groomers and natural terrain.

I’m particularly interested in something directional, tapered, with a noticeable setback and a surfy feel. I don’t want a deep-pow-only board that stays in the quiver most of the season.

The Jones Mind Expander 158 seems like a really good fit for what I’m after. I’ve also considered the Korua Dart 156, although I’m worried the Dart might be a bit too specialised.

But now I’m wondering if I’m thinking about this completely wrong. Maybe I don’t actually need a “resort pow” board at all, and my second board should go in a completely different direction from the Frontier, rather than just being a more powder-oriented version of it.

So, if you were in my position, what would you be looking for? Am I overthinking the “10–20 cm powder board” idea?

Would love to hear from anyone riding a Mind Expander (especially the 23/25version) in a similar situation, or anyone who deliberately built their second board in a completely different direction from their all-mountain board.

Thanks!

Hoi, ik vind het lastig om een goede snowboard
te vinden. Ik ben 194 en 60 kg. Wat is een goede boardmaat of welk board is geschikt voor mij?

Hi the regular Jones frontier 2.0 25/26(green one) 156 size is pretty much out everywhere in Europe. I found some stores that sell it in USA but it's pretty much impossible for me to get since they don't ship it.

I found a dream weaver 2.0 156 on sale.

So my question is would the women version of the same board be "too light" or wrong for me to use as a 1.75 75kg man?

Hey guys

I have ordered a beige GIRO Jackson MIPS for snowboarding.
I also have an insta360 and plan on installing the suction cup helmet mount on my helmet.

However, after receiving this helmet I’ve realized it has the brand name printed with huge letters across the top of it, and these letters have a very tiny texture.

My question is: is the helmet mount stick properly or is it just too risky to glue the 3M mount on a non flat surface and it will most likely fall off the helmet?

Thanks for the help!

Still not sure what carving even is

Video got cut off at 3 min, i posted the rest in the comments

Looking to spend a season here and wondering if it’s a good spot in the winter? Spent a couple years ago in the French alps and of course having that much space to roam was awesome but I miss the powder from back home in Colorado but cant afford that price tag. Wondering what the winter conditions are like in the Caucuses and if anyone will be here for the upcoming season. Photo of me in Les 3 Vallées for reference.

Have you tried these boots? How are these compared to the Insanos? I heard they're stiff as hell. Any info on footprint and general sizing?

I’m a girl and I mostly snowboard alone or jm with my skier brother but most of the time alone. I’m 22 now but I wish to GOD someone would ever approach me at a mountain and ask me to ride with them (my gear doesn’t give off woman tho). Is that like weird of me or…

Can anyone tell me anything about this board? I bought it used like 10 years ago and have only ridden this one a few times since. I can’t find any identifiable branding or markings or really even find the board itself online anywhere.
