Google coming up empty on a Village shop that has a demo Volkl Confession. I'd settle for a Shiro. Any ideas on other shops that might not show up on a Google search ? Looked at affinity, fantastic, whistler sports, WB, Salomon
TIA!

Coming into whistler this week. Will be spending a few mornings teaching my 3yr old to ski at magic chair, but looking to tour on my "me" day on Thursday.

Not sure where everyone was today. Disneyland for March break? Hungover from St Paddy's? Maybe its just that people start to forget about skiing once mid-March roles around?
Regardless the reason, the snow was of an acceptable quality and the lines were short. Skied pow right back onto the lift all day; what a beauty!

Acceptable conditions on Whistler today. Double to triple overhead blower, gotta love this place when there aren't lines.

See any activity? this pwl has had me riding hit/park laps instead of the usual slack laps. After reading about the partial burial in corona yesterday i'm even less excited to head back http://www.whistlerquestion.com/news...ain-1.12259314. Pretty good wake up call, i've definitely always hung on to the (false) thought that those areas are safer as they are blasted routinely

just that one convexity on the north east side of oboe that always pops...looks like someone got a little too close on saturday. I'm actually not too surprised that Corona went there, in the sun and it warmed up super fast yesterday just after lunch. I wasn't too concerned where I was on Oboe, took super conservative lines and stuck to more sheltered trees.

Damn, 35 minutes from the top, you are fast on SP haha. We had an awesome day Sunday playing on Flute/Oboe. The storm snow seemed to be bonding pretty well based on some hasty pits, no settlements/cracking noted. We stuck mostly to the trees but popped out on some open slopes both E and W throughout the day. I was surprised how few people were out in the morning, it was a bit busier in the afternoon.
We also saw a heli land on top of Cowboy around 2pm but didn't see anyone ski down, not sure what that was about.
Any pics of the slide at the bottom of Corona?

Anyone been up recently? Me and the boy have a day to use up on our Edge cards, was thinking on this weekend. As long as the upper alpine is still soft, it's a go.

Couple of days ago
Unexpected quintuple overhead blower diamond dust tears of the unborn child blower in the Cayoosh Pass area today. HS 320cms + @ 1850m. Did multiple laps from 1850 to 1600m on N facing slopes of acceptable snow quality. Ski pen ranged from 30 to 60 depending on windloading in pockets with HST approx 50-70 at treeline. Boot pen is crotch deep at treeline as basal layer below storm snow is insufficiently consolidated to be supportive so bootpackers be warned. Winds nil to light from SW at TL. Temps -1 at road to 1 later in day. Temps -2 to 0 at 1850m but low clouds kept solar effect minimal hence the snow quality. Some sluffing on N aspects we skied but otherwise nil results

Snowed to valley floor again. Laps of Blackcomb glacier in full on winter storm with no-one around. Hello zombie apocalypse

Bushrat slid yesterday afternoon? CTV had some shit about some "safety advocates" worried about W/B not notifying the public faster about inbounds slides and hazards. It's a big fkn mountain with a lot of new snow. They can't mitigate all risk. Beep inbounds. /End rant.
