im headed to Beech this upcoming weekend - anyone going for the "pow-day"

[@elsplace896]

That's a nice run. I went skiing there in 1970s, the windy drive was scary but we had a great time.

[@Brosef336]

I think I remember seeing you that day. I don’t think I realized it was you but I distinctly recall those skis cause I thought they looked sick.

[@colleenbaver7161]

Great video..felt like I was skiing too! Love Sugar Mtn.

[@DownhillJake]

[@floccgotti7095]

Backflipping benton went full send off that top rock in Jonathon Buckhouse’s sugar mtn video. After seeing it in person a few weeks ago, dude is mad man.

Going in 2 weeks for my first time at sugar, went to beech about 2 years ago and excited to ski here

[@thomasgoolsby153]

I’m heading up there this weekend!

[@ttfactoryoutdoors9605]

how do you like those blades? Where did you mount your bindings? Snowboarding is so fun, but im getting back into skiing

[@DownhillJake]

I really like them, only have used them a couple times now. Last season used the K2 Mind benders and I like the Bent100s a lot more. Mounted them to manufacturer recommendation and couldn't be happier

[@ttfactoryoutdoors9605]

@@DownhillJake thanks for the feedback! Have fun out there

[@TheOutdoorsDaddy]

Looking at buying my own skis this year. They say you want a pair that goes from the ground to your nose. Any other info you can provide? Thanks.

[@DownhillJake]

That's true on the length. Another important factor is width. It really depends on what your skiing, a wider ski is better for powder, and a narrower ski is better for groomed/harder conditions. Mine are 100 underfoot so not super wide but far from narrow. They work great on these typical east coast conditions but if I go out west I'm not sinking in the powder and I can still use my skis lol

[@jayfizzle-wz9si]

for somebody that’s never skied before will this be a good experience or no?

[@DownhillJake]

For sure, I would avoid weekends if you can as it gets quite busy but sugar Mtn is very beginner friendly
