Visually inspect skis, bases, and edges. If any damage, get a full tune to fix the damage, grind the bases, and sharpen the edges.

Enzo attempted a double front flip at Alaska's Hilltop Ski Area. He comes pretty close to landing it, nearly getting his skis all the way around, but he just didn't quite get it.

California's winter forecast was accurate, predicting warmer, drier conditions with below-normal mountain snows. By April 1, statewide snowpack was only 18% of average.

Pit Viper's Magic Magnet system makes lens changes easy, even with gloves on. Goepper rotates between just two: a blackout lens for daytime sessions and a clear lens for nighttime. With an ultrawide field of view, the BN5000 delivers sharper spatial awareness at full throttle, and the bold flames on the grippy strap don't hurt either. "They make you go faster," he jokes, "and they keep your head nice and warm on those cold days."

"I feel heartbroken about what's happen[ing] in the United States," Chris Lillis said. "I think that as a country we need to focus on respecting everybody's rights and making sure that we're treating our citizens as well as anybody with love and respect." "It's definitely a tough time in our country right now," commented Svea Irving. "I just continue to represent my values, compassion and love and respect for others."

Sweden's biathletes have struggled to deliver medals at the Winter Olympics and on Friday they finally ran out of patience with their waxing team, blaming a bad job on their skis for an embarrassingly poor performance in the men's mass start. Often among the favourites in biathlon events, the Swedes had a dismal day in the final men's race of the Games,

The Italian snowmaking expert is responsible for perfecting several of the courses that will feature in the 2026 Milan Cortina Winter Games, and he takes his job seriously. It's the most important race of their life, Cerato said. Our duty is to give them the best, to deliver the best courses where they can perform their best after training so hard.

The crowds have disappeared and so has the sun, dipping behind the frigid Dolomites as another day of Olympic racing is in the books. This is the golden hour for the hidden heroes of the sport. You can find them in metal storage containers and dimly-lit concrete garages, warmed by space heaters and hunkered over skis that will carry their clients down harrowing hills, places where 80 mph is routine and a seemingly miniscule mistake can spell disaster.

3-time Olympic alpine skier Tommy Ford sat down with Condé Nast Traveler to discuss the different types of snow conditions you find around the world, from the Beaver Creek in Colorado to Ushuaia, Argentina, and Lake Takapō in New Zealand. The discussion was mostly surrounding the snow conditions while racing or training, not the off-piste or regular trails that most skiers are riding, but he does touch on some other forms of snow.

Cornice collapses can be incredibly dangerous, having the potential to crush people, pull them down mountains and potentially over rocky cliffs, and cause larger avalanches. Professional skier Josh Daiek doesn't seem to be impacted by cornices as much as a regular skier or snowboarder would be, though. This incredible line starts with a heart pounding moment as he looked over the edge.
