Hey guys, It was great fun today! I just learned something of interest: my girlfriend - aka the engineer - can buy tickets at Edelweiss at 30$ instead of 41$. She can buy up to 20 tickets per transaction, but has to buy them one day in advance. There may also be some deals for Tremblant (53$ instead of 76$), 20 tickets also. We are not sure if she needs to be there though... So if we are thinking about heading there, let me know in advance! :D cheers

Hey guys, I will also be joining you tomorrow morning. T: are you okay with me inviting Blaise?

Hey Ian! Thanks for the info. I'm really more than confused right now. I've been speaking to a guy in Qc who is Andrea's contact (Mamar Galfout) and he is telling me I should go with 225s to begin with. He says he would be glad to upgrade my boots to a 325 next season and I just pay the difference (which seems to be a good deal). For the size, if I go with 225s, there is no molding, so I should just go with something that fits me well no? the size 27 on the 225t that I tried was very tight, but I could put my feet in. Mamar said if my toe got numb, I better that the 27.5. As for the board, I'd be glad to try yours, although it might be a bit long? I am 5'10 and 160 lbs. I have been riding a soft board for 10 years, but I didn't go that often, so I'm not a pro, just decent. I have been 2 or 3 times with the T's oxygen board with ski boots... To keep your hopes up: it is a La Nina year so there is supposed to be a lot of snow! :D

Hi, My name is Jean-Philippe (JP for short) and I will start carving actively this season. I plan on going to Vorlage often (with Tabatha and Chris) and also to Cascades. Hope to see you there! For now, I need your expert opinions! I'm about to buy my first pair of boots and I am receiving contradicting advice. Some say I should get the Deeluxe 225t and others the 325t. I also tried some boots last week-end and I'm not sure about the size. The 27 fit very tightly and was crushing my toes a little bit (went numb after 10 min) but they were not molded yet. The 27.5 was very comfortable and had plenty of space for my toes but my foot was still stable in it. Can you help me out?? thanks! J-P
