Having two offices really has its advantages: ➡️ Spectacular drive this time of year ➡️ More skiing/snowboarding options ➡️ More fishing, outdoor options ➡️ More coffee shop/bakery/restaurant options In short, being in the Kootenays AND Prince George, is just more of the good things.

When you think something is not possible and you find out that it is... 💪 While researching & designing new forecasts for Sonuby 1.6, I found out that meteoblue now offers additional snow forecasts (specifically snow depth), which I desperately needed to create a Skiing & Snowboarding report. This means that there will be a Skiing & Snowboarding report this year 🕺⛷️🏂 #BuildInPublic #IndieDeveloper #AppBusiness #BecomingProfitable #SonubyWeather

Japan has long been hailed as a powder paradise, drawing riders from around the globe to its legendary backcountry. But a new wave is reshaping the scene — Japan’s street snowboarders are stepping into the spotlight. With creativity and style, they’re turning urban landscapes into their playground, showcasing lines as clean as their pow turns. This emerging generation proves that Japan’s snowboarding culture isn’t limited to deep snow—it thrives just as much on concrete and rails. Takashi Tamamura , Himari Takamori and Yuta Watanabe pushing the boundaries of what’s possible in Japan's streets. Himari: @k4mara2000 Yuta: @k4mara2000 @donuts_eye Takashi: @k4mara2000

Choosing the right GSM (grams per square meter) for sports clothing is indeed crucial, as it directly affects performance and comfort. At Heini, our extensive R&D ensures that we tailor the GSM index of our fabrics to meet the specific demands of various sports, from cycling to skiing. For example, Nordic and Alpine skiing have distinct requirements. Nordic skiing typically requires lighter, more breathable fabrics to facilitate movement and moisture management, while Alpine skiing often demands heavier, insulated materials for warmth and protection against harsh conditions. There are several factors which GSM have direct impact on the clothing such as Insulation and Warmth, Durability and protection, breathability, weight considerations and weather resistance. #customskiclothing #customcyclingwear #fabrictechnology #gsm #nordiccanaada

YOUR OPINION ON THE FUTURE OF WINTERSPORTS The ski season is over in most parts of the world. Looking back at recent successes of our business and the nature of last winter, we will continue our journey to shape the future of skiing. The improvement and transformation of critical areas in wintersports are crucial. Yet it can sound simpler than it is. All stakeholders can do their fair share to develop a more sustainable skiing experience that will let this beautiful sport thrive and future generations enjoy the great outdoors. If you are a professional in the winter sports industry or sustainable business development: What is your opinion on the ideas in this article? https://lnkd.in/dfPh4Vxi #wearskiing #wintersports #sustainability

I'm conflicted reading this. One cannot deny that Snowboarding's inclusion in the Olympic program helped wintersports as a whole. Participation increased across both skiing and snowboarding, manufacturer sales increased dramatically, and athletes who'd been labeled as 'misfits' and 'delinquents' participating in 'the worst new sport' by Time magazine only a few years prior became household names virtually overnight. One also cannot deny that there's been a price for such growth. The commercialization of these sports came at the expense of creativity. As sponsorship dollars retreated towards skiing and snowboarding's competitive disciplines, these sports - once vehicles for creative expression - began to more closely resemble disciplines like figure skating than the activities which their lineage could directly be traced to (skateboarding and surfing). This transition alienated passionate participants and prospective entrants alike. To be clear: I don't think this is solely the FIS's fault. As an industry, we've stopped investing in the future of these sports. We've largely walked away from activities and events that celebrate/reward creative expression and/or facilitate participation. A lion's share of our R&D efforts and new product initiatives focus on the development of products or experiences that are engineered to enhance performance rather than eliminate pain-points for new / early adopters. And we're struggling with earnest efforts to make our sports more accessible and inclusive. Whether this will be good for these disciplines (and the future of these sports) is irrelevant. For better or for worse, that train has left the station. In my mind, the question(s) on the table are as follows: (1) What lessons can we learn from Snowboarding and Freeskiing's inclusion, and (2) how can we - endemic brands, governing bodies, and media - apply these lessons to insulate these disciplines from experiencing the same whiplash? Would love to engage with thinkers & doers like Liam Griffin on this subject...
