Collin Collins + 2012 K2 Hellbent Skis + Wasatch Slackcountry = Rad Edit

by SkiersRealm
Jan 31st 2011 - 0 comments

@CollinCollins is one of my favorite skiers to watch right now. His style is young T-Hall and his lines at Alta are ridiculous. Stoked on the new Orange mid west inspired graphic for the 2012 K2 Hellbents. Rad that we get to see them in Action after just seeing the graphics this week at SIA. Hopefully Colin's knee will be good to go for March when the snow really starts to fall in Utah. Hopefully he will keep up on the edits as we are loving them. Watch Collin Collins New Edit, Slackcountry

ColbyJamesWest.com Is New, Improved, and Now Live

Colby James West launched his new blog today and in my opinion it looks a lot better than the old one. I like the recycled background and it is extremely easy to navigate. There is still no ski sponsor listed. Although I don't want to speculate in public on the status of his sponsors I would be stoked to see him riding for Salomon as I think he would fit in well with their team. Hopefully we will soon find the answer to the Colby ski mystery. Check it out at www.ColbyJamesWest.com

Seth Morrison The Ordinary Skier Trailer By Oakley

by SkiersRealm
Jan 28th 2011 - 0 comments

Oakley has been working on a documentary project with Seth Morrison titled, The Ordinary Skier. For Seth Morrison, skiing is much more than a sport or job, it's a way of life. It's not a privilege he was born with; it's a passion he discovered on his own. Through hard work and dedication, Morrison has become one of the best skiers in the world. The Ordinary Skier traces his journey from the middle class suburbs of Chicago to the Colorado Rockies and into the underground ski-bum subculture that would eventually become Freeskiing. This is the story of how a collection of misfits turned an elite sport upside down, and how an ordinary kid chased his dream and became one of skiing's most iconic heroes.

Backcountry Access Tracker 2 Beacon #SIA11

by SkiersRealm
Jan 27th 2011 - 0 comments

The Backcountry Access Tracker 2 Beacon is the industry?s fastest, most precise pinpointing, with triple receive antennas, instantaneous real time display, and same easy to use interface as Tracker DTS. My favorite feature is the new intuitive mechanical search/transmit switch making it even easier to use right ?out of the box. We still suggest you get some back country education. The thinner profile also means the harness fits better and is tucked closer to your body. Besides a hick up at Jackson Hole this thing will be the new standard for ill transceivers. If you already bought one go download the Tracker2 Version 4 software update.
