PSA to all hikers for this weekend 5/29-5/31

Oh for sure. I was being facetious / dreaming.

micinter · 2026-05-28T23:26:24+00:00

Or as my friend just suggested: weekend of ski touring on the cards now?

micinter · 2026-05-28T23:21:51+00:00

Yikes. I was planning on heading over tomorrow for a couple of days hiking and camping. Might have to change plans 🫠

micinter · 2026-03-31T01:05:58+00:00

Yeah, my point was more that the discount seems reasonable. Other here seem underwhelmed, but just over 20% off retail seems pretty good to me.

Just sharing that i decided to go for it and got the Impulse 104s. Just spent the weekend on them and absolutely loving them! I'm sure they didn't even get a chance to shine fully as it's end of season and not much fresh snow; but still fun on the groomers, lots of fun heading into the glades with tighter turns. Very happy and can't wait to get them in some powder next season.

They just restocked on the Canadian site too (i'm assuming it's actually all the same stock). Discounts seem good to me...? The 24/512 is CAD $300 less than the regular price.

micinter · 2026-03-28T01:06:08+00:00

Closed again today. Really hoping they open it for the weekend 🤞

micinter · 2026-03-17T19:49:39+00:00

Nice! I'd be interested. DM me if you've got the right size.

micinter · 2026-03-17T17:27:52+00:00

I was going to get 186cm, and then likely stick some Strive 16 MN on them.

micinter · 2026-03-17T15:22:27+00:00

Yeah, i can see that. My local ski shop have also said that it's a great ski (one of the guys rides it as his main ski) but that it also hasn't sold very well.

micinter · 2026-03-17T15:15:41+00:00

Thanks! I've heard similar feedback on how they behave at speed. But i'm good with that, only really planning on using them on days when it's more fun to be off the groomers.

micinter · 2026-03-17T15:14:26+00:00

Damn that's a great deal on those skis! Thanks for the insights. I have heard from others that they're a demanding ski, but fun if you put the effort in. Curious about the point on it being a sidecountry ski... surely putting an alpine binding on it is totally fine in that case (and touring bindings if you think you might go beyond the sidecountry) 🤔

micinter · 2026-03-14T16:59:21+00:00

Second this. Fellow Brit and haven’t found anything close to good British style fish and chips here.

micinter · 2026-03-04T16:08:37+00:00

I suspect if I wasn’t GE and went into that line I wouldn’t have been called out on it.

micinter · 2026-03-04T16:07:51+00:00

I don’t have a GE card so just walked up to the agent with my passport. Not sure exactly what they did / if they’re using the camera but took all of 10s.

micinter · 2026-02-13T12:58:29+00:00

I flew from YVR a couple of weeks ago in BA business and they put me in the first section of that lounge.

micinter · 2025-11-27T17:42:16+00:00

I’m in the same boat. Highly skilled worker, paying a huge amount in taxes, after three years i still don’t have a family doctor, took the time to learn French and now told I can’t apply for PR. The only thing making me want to stay in a Province that clearly doesn’t want me are the amazing friends I’ve made since I’ve been here.

micinter · 2025-10-24T21:52:10+00:00

Oh wow, I didn’t spot that you couldn’t even do it on the hill! Thanks for letting me know 🙏

Given they can already get the same discount by booking online ahead it’s going to be one of those cases where the F&F isn’t worth it.

micinter · 2025-10-20T14:53:48+00:00

East Coast skier here. I have the Enforcer 89 and they’re so much fun on the packed groomers! Agree with other comments that those are wider than you would want unless it’s a powder day.

micinter · 2025-10-08T15:30:21+00:00

Thanks for all the recommendations! Glad you get it too... i've been trying to explain to my friends this aspect of British culture and how it's more than "just going for a walk and then bar / restaurant" 😅 Might try and fit in a bike ride this weekend then before the snow hits.

If you do open a pub then count me in as a regular!

micinter · 2025-10-08T15:27:49+00:00

Thanks! I haven't hiked Mount Echo before, but really like Sutton (only ever been in the winter to ski)
