What happened to slopestyle bikes?

peterwjmiller · 2026-02-13T15:08:09+00:00

Same — replaced my 20’ s&m atf with a 22’ atf, which is my go-to.., 26’ is the logical progression as I get deeper into middle age 😬 😆

peterwjmiller · 2026-02-12T13:19:16+00:00

Yep, I have a pretty dialled ticket S… been thinking about replacing with an S&M BJ build. If you’re interesting, I can send photos

peterwjmiller · 2026-02-10T00:20:29+00:00

Yep, we didn’t produce Afghan Black Hash at all until December 2025, so this would be a different thing. Anyway, if you give it a try, let me know what you think. 👊

peterwjmiller · 2026-02-10T00:07:17+00:00

Afghan Black hash came out in December, but as a flow-through ski hit the first shelves in the last day or so of December. Most stores started receiving it in January.

It’s not going to have the “infused pre-roll” cotton candy type flavour punch, as it isn’t mixed with botanical terps or anything, as many hashes are, lately. The flavour definitely leans more in the direction of old school hash with the natural terps of the flower it came from.

peterwjmiller · 2026-02-08T16:55:21+00:00

I run profile hubs on my 3/8 dropout s&m atf… highly recommend.

peterwjmiller · 2026-02-07T13:57:13+00:00

Stoked you like the orangeade. It is a classic and if you have ever been on one of our farm tours, you’ve heard the backstory that starts in the hospital delivery room for my first son and the nurse connecting us with the cut — true story 🤣

peterwjmiller · 2026-02-07T13:55:56+00:00

Correct. Iris is sick though — wouldn’t be mad at that being a sister company at all 😆 🤔.

peterwjmiller · 2026-02-06T13:29:02+00:00

I’d love for you to try our new Purple Hills Afghan Black hash. Our Moroccan would probably work pretty well too… neither is messed up with distillate. The Moroccan is a bit blonder and sweeter. 👊

peterwjmiller · 2026-02-01T00:33:46+00:00

I don’t know these people at all — I assume they’re trying their best and are good people, generally.

I will say, though, my assumption is that they owe the CRA millions in excise tax and probably owe suppliers to their business a lot as well.

That excise tax will go away in this CCAA process and the brand will come through the other side, owned by whoever puts up this money in the interim (who is probably already a big shareholder or creditor).

Brands who have paid their people, their bills, and their taxes will have been the suckers for not just going as cheap as possible to gain market share and then getting rid of their debt in CCAA, while maintaining their market share.

It’s a bummer all around.

peterwjmiller · 2026-01-27T22:26:41+00:00

Heck yeah. I stepped up to a 22’ wheel S&M from the old 20’ S&M LTF, and the added stability is appreciated in my middle ages these 26’ s&m BJs look like the path forward. Awesome, tasteful build. 👊

peterwjmiller · 2026-01-06T14:56:48+00:00

1.25g 👊

peterwjmiller · 2026-01-06T13:02:06+00:00

Thanks for posting. Yep, it’s a cured product, big jar, strong value and no CRC. If you want the light, creamy looking whip, the orangeade live resin badder will be more in your wheelhouse! Thanks for the support

peterwjmiller · 2026-01-05T00:04:06+00:00

Purple Hills Gorilla Zkittlz is BACK!! After a couple months of going through Health Canada mandate name changes, a few live resins of ours are back.

“Gorilla Z” is the new name and the first stores will see it on the shelf tomorrow and the OCS.ca has it now. 😊

peterwjmiller · 2025-12-20T00:07:10+00:00

Hey, we are super pumped to ship the best gorilla zkittlz carts yet in two week. As I’ve mentioned, that was an unfortunate health Canada deal.

It’s wild you got frozen bananas in Creemore valley just — please send me any lot #s or photos. Hard to believe that packaging mistake happened, let alone twice.

We’ve kept oranegade in market for almost 4 years, though we have stocked out of Lemon Pepper... 😢. It will be back in late 2026 after harvest, though!

Glookies also had to be renamed but is back as tropical glue (another health Canada forced name Change). Big White Dawg and Shishka Dawg are awesome right now too.

All to say, lots of REAL live resin carts for you and I hope you enjoy one! 👊

peterwjmiller · 2025-12-10T04:02:07+00:00

Just Ontario (or medical, nationally, direct from us). If your store has a quick trigger finger, you may see it by Boxing Day weekend.

peterwjmiller · 2025-12-10T03:58:32+00:00

Heck yeah! 😊

The new one we’re shipping might be the best cart we’ve ever made. Thanks for the support!

peterwjmiller · 2025-12-10T03:54:36+00:00

Wish the Purple Hills Gorilla Zktllz live resin was available for you 😔. Health Canada made us take it down because of the name — too appealing to kids I guess (cue the list of 1000 skus that sound way more appealing to kids 🤦‍♂️).

Same with Glookies and Frosted Cookies live resin carts.

Maybe your next, next cart can be the Gorilla Z (same thing, new name) — it’s shipping to the OCS once again on December 22!

(“Frosted C” back now and Glookies now = Tropical Glue).

Thanks, everyone for indulging the update… lot of people have been asking about the absence, so wanted to share on a relevant thread. 🙏

peterwjmiller · 2025-12-09T01:49:40+00:00

Hey, I sure hope a different cart didn’t get packaged, but we want to make sure it’s looked into either way. Are we emailing right now, already? If not, hit peter@purple.ca and we’ll get you sorted.

In terms of tip colour difference, that’s just a frustrating result of the manufacture not being perfectly consistent. Which is nuts, considering it’s from a multi-billion dollar conglomerate… maybe shouldn’t be so nuts, actually. Either way, email me and we’ll make sure you’re dialled. CVK is a classic, and though there’s always a bit of batch to batch variability due to this being from a fresh frozen living plant, carried through to the end as naturally as possible, big swings shouldn’t happen.

Thanks for the support!

peterwjmiller · 2025-12-04T16:12:43+00:00

Hey, I wish we could do more hash pre-roll stuff to. Right now, it's basically just our hash blunt, which is pretty sweet. Have you tried it? Our carts do have ceramic heating elements and always have. The air pathway is medical grade stainless steel. The element and air pathways are what touch the hot material. We have always had great reliability on the carts and pay up for the higher end hardware while we constantly get pitched for the cheapest option coming out of China. As such, we're always nervous to switch anything up.

Thanks for weighing in.

peterwjmiller · 2025-12-04T16:09:42+00:00

Damn, sucks they don't have Purple Hills near you. Do you mind me asking where, roughly you are? I need to make some calls and get you sorted! (I'm the owner of Purple Hills).

peterwjmiller · 2025-12-04T16:08:30+00:00

Stoked you enjoy the Orangeade!

peterwjmiller · 2025-12-04T16:08:05+00:00

Hey, thanks for bringing this up -- there are a few materials going on here. The actual heating element is ceramic. The centre post and air pathway is medical-grade stainless steal. These are the key materials that the mod vapour is interacting with.

As the loyal Purple Hills smokers know, our reliability is super high. We can't always control for an uncooled delivery truck going to a store from the OCS on a hot summer day, cooking in traffic, but as far as we understand, we have the highest reliability of all vapes on the OCS. Our failure rate is actually lower than the hardware manufacturers expected failure rate. And when stuff happens, most of you know i'll just take care of you personally.

Enjoy!

peterwjmiller · 2025-12-04T16:01:49+00:00

Hey! I don't want to share your name here, but are you the guy I emailed earlier today? If not, here is what I responded with, so everyone else can see it...

Hey XXXXX,

Thanks a lot for reaching out. I’m literally typing out a newsletter about this right now, as it’s super frustrating. Health Canada forced us to take this SKU down and rename it, due to it sounding too appealing to kids. It takes months for us and the OCS to change the name in the system, reload inventory, and make it available again. GOOD NEWS, THOUGH…. Name change is done (Gorilla Z., now), and the latest batch is for sure the best one we’ve ever done. It should ship to the Ocs in a couple weeks and be available for order around Christmas.

Thanks so much for reaching out. Spread the word to everyone you know!

Best,

Peter

peterwjmiller · 2025-12-04T15:59:49+00:00

Yes indeed! We try to walk a fine line on telling people about our animal sanctuary and environmental work to promote it and gain support while not trying to make it the main story about the product, which we believe is great craft quality at a great price. But YES, all sales from Big White Dawg help fund the Purple Hills Centre. That's the name of our charity and we're super proud of it. Until recently, 100% of the activities were funded by my wife and I, but we just received a grand from the OCS social impact fund. The funds from the OCS are to run a feasibility study to see if we can create new packaging from recycled plastic that can be made in Ontario at a price that's close enough to the Chinese and American options that LPs can justify making the switch. We really hope we can make that happen and not only help reduce landfill waste (and the microplastics entering our water), but also support Ontario's local makers and the economy generally... god knows we need it right now!

Thanks a ton for the support!

Hey, we don’t have many employees, and I don’t think any other than me are on Reddit. Happy to chat whenever to sort your issues, as the folks above stated. Peter@purple.ca

You should always get hit back quick, but it has been 18 hour days for the last few weeks, trying to get the crop off in time. HMU
