LATEST EPISODE 🔗
We’re joined in-studio by Andrew Couperthwait (aka Coup), VP of Head Skis, for a deep dive on what Head has been building lately.

In this episode, we break down Blizzard’s brand-new freestyle line, Canvas—arguably the least “Blizzard-y” ski they’ve ever made, in a good way. After some early-season chaos talk (New England snow showing up, who’s spinning already, and a recap of Snowbound Expo and the Blizzard x BSSC event), we …
Joe and Garrett dive into the ski construction cycle: why brands refresh models, what actually changes year to year, and how those updates affect the way you ski. We compare icons and their latest iterations (Nordica Enforcer, Elan Ripstick + Black Edition, Salomon QST, and Blizzard’s Anomaly repla…
The boys riff on ski brand “cult” followings and why certain gear inspires lifelong loyalty. We start with a fresh pickup, the Bent 110 GDs and use it to unpack the Atomic Bent phenomenon before widening out to other die-hards: Pivots, ZipFits, Black Crows, Mantra, and even indie stalwarts like Sur…

They dive into a few different categories, out of the box fit, break-in vs heat molding, picking the right flex and last, and who benefits from these up…

Garrett and Joe are in studio to recap some big business (ski testing) they've done over the past few weeks. This conversation focuses mainly on specialized frontside skis along with narrow all-mountain skis. These skis can be difficult to place and rank just by reading about them, so we hope this …
Garrett and Joe sit down to go over some new or updated thoughts on product they have tested for next season!
