pfft. i'm sorry, i've worked for local shops and i do much of my shopping online. unless it's something like boot fitting, shops are just going to need to come to grips with the fact that online stores are their competition and they need to do more to compete with online retailers than simply whining "support your local shop!" when a local shop starts hooking up deals like you can find online, i'll show them more support- until then i'm going to support the people who understand my budget and wants and help me find a way to get the products i desire... in other words, the interwebs. with the exceptions of boot fitting and having the tools to mount every binding i might come across, i have/know what i need to get me by and keep me happy and on snow, so what's the point in going to a shop to pay retail on a pair of skis and bindings when i can find that same stuff online for WAY less? that's why shops like Jibij and Evo are both online and in-store retailers. shops need to learn to adapt to a changing marketplace, end of story.


anyway, to respond to the thread, how could a kid from Cali not hear of pacsun? i haven't shopped there in ages, but i'm pretty sure they carry those brands you listed.

sorry man but you're just going to have to put in your time on NS. we like to keep things secret cuz the more people that know the quicker we lose the deals. stick around NS for a while and you'll learn eventually. if you make people like you someone might eventually give you a whisper. only if you've earned it though

steve, you touched my heart. wait, no, that's just the taco bell from lunch acting up. i have yet to ever go to a ski shop like you described- every shop i've ever been to is there to cater to people with money and sell as much high-end shit as possible. i'm sure shops like the one you described exist, but until i find one, i'm going online to buy my gear. even then, unless i absolutely have to have work done that i don't know how to do myself, i probably won't buy from shops. if shops want to compete for my business, they're welcome to invest in a website and become an online retailer (something they'll likely have to end up doing anyway as business becomes more and more online-oriented). if it's just product i'm looking for, i'm going online, and i'd only go into a shop for service if it's for something i'm not capable of doing myself. thanks for the invite to the shop to meet Dan, but since i'm too far away that wouldn't be possible... of course, if Dan had a website i'd probably buy something from him.

ok honestly, no less than 20 minutes ago i looked at this, saw some shit about "wm", wondered what it was and if it was a big joke. i was kinda pissed that a bunch of people we sort of dangeling it infront of the faces of people who dont know. so i move on. i 'e-search' for a shirt i had seen earlier, and accidentially stumble upon what i believe to be "wm" assuming it isnt some joke that went too far and there really wasn't some online place abreviated to "wm". the site i found is pretty sick, has a bunch of cool stuff, and i'm totally glad i found it. needless to say, "putting in more NS time" had nothing to do with it.

They are a store located in Maine. I am located outside of Buffalo, New York, which is Western New York. By no means is it close to Maine.

this is a ridiculous statement. my local shop has no idea at all who I am. they don't care about me anymore than backcountry.com does. additionally, I walk into almost any "local" ski shop, and I know more about the skis they sell than the salespeople. That's not a claim on my part, I'm just trying to point out how little most shops care about the freestyle niche.

I'm sorry, but silly emotional pleas like this really don't hold any water. my local shop is more expensive than online, and they don't care about me any more than an online shop, in fact, i've gotten better customer service from getboards.com than i have from local shops.

i agree.

so so true.

only one guy at my shop knows who i am, and thats only cuz we've been friends for a while and we ski togather sometimes.

and yea theyr are a lot of sales guys at shops that are there totally for the "money" and they dont know jack about skis.

and shops are so freakin expensive.

im all about supportin the local stuff but why buy skis at a shop for 100 bucks more than what you can get them for on the internet.

its not bein a dick, its bein a smart skiier by buyin stuff online. that means you have more $$ in your pocket for other stuff....gloves, hoodies, beer etc.

Steve, I know exactly what you are saying. My problem is, we don't have a local shop that carries the items that I'm interested in. I'd love to be able to try things on or look at items in person before I buy, but right now I just have to go with the internet.

if you tell me of a shop like the one you described in NJ then I'll go right to it. problem is most shops are not like that at all. you're lucky to have somewhere like that to go.
