nice, first post

i like the new chronic construction (and graphics) orange is hawt
i have the white spk boots, i'd recommend them to anyone, so comfortable.

look/rossi has stepped up their binding i feel, its alot stronger plus its ligher
or salomon has a new binding, sth12, its got some metal in the back so it won't shatter like the s912 i have broke three plates of, or u can test your luck with z series. ligher, but  idk, i got some z12s coming

Please stop. You cant possibly reccomend a boot to him. You dont know what type of skiing he will be doing, nor the size/shape of his foot.

For reference on buying boots, see the sticky in Ski Equipment.

you'll love whistler. are you heading out for the entire season? if so you'll probably want two pairs of skis. one for park, one for powder :)

get anthems or invaders especially invaders if your starting out in park. youll have a ton of fun and wont have to worry about breaking if your just starting out. get a comfortable lightweight boot doesnt really matter for your first year, i rode in size like 14 dalbellos for my first year in park, and once i changed over to park boots youll be glad you had shitty boots for a reference. as for bindings that really doesnt matter either for now, your not gonna need a high din. and you want something light. so id say invaders, some look jibs, and some comfy boots
