Surefoot, the world’s leading ski boot retailer, is introducing the revolutionary X heat liner, built exactly the same as the Contoura X liners you know and love, but with an internally-wired heat element. Operated by an app on your phone, these liners offer the very best in heated technology combined with the comfort of Surefoot memory foam. Cold feet can ruin a day as much as uncomfortable ones — not anymore!” –Johnny, Surefoot Whistler Village. 604.938.1663 surefoot.com Salomon QST 106 Ski “The QST 106 is a soft snow charger that also delivers precise, stable arcs on groomers and hard snow, with a floaty, predictable all twin rocker profile and 3D wood core reinforced with C/FX 3 carbon and flex for power when you need it. The new one-ski quiver.” –Brynn, Salomon Store, Whistler Village. 604.902.229 5 Salomon.com Salomon Drifter Loft Jacket “A reversible puffy coat that gives you two style choices in one jacket. Wear the baffled side out for a classic ‘down’ look, or the Pertex ® side out for a clean, technical look. Either way looks sharp, and Stormloft insulation ensures warmth and protection in cold winter weather.” –Brynn, Salomon Store, Whistler Village. 604.902.229 5 salomon.com Little Spring: One Bottle’s Tale in a World of Plastic Waste “Local author/adventurer/father, JF Plouffe’s first book is an illustrated short story that shares important ideas about waste and the world we live in through humour, adventure and education. Following Little Spring from the bottling plant to the Great Pacific Garbage Patch is actually way more fun than it sounds, but the message hits home.” –Amélie, Mountain Life littlespring.ca Arc’teryx Beta SL Hybrid Jacket “If GORE-TEX ® is good, more GORE-TEX ® is better! This jacket combines ultra light GORE- TEX ® with new Paclite ® Plus product technology with supple 3L G GORE-TEX ® to create a super lightweight, incredibly packable waterproof shell designed to give full weather protection, durability and performance.” –Steph, Arc’teryx Whistler Village, Vancouver and Kitsilano Stores. arcteryx.com Nibz Balaclava “Forget that old 70s 3-hole ski mask (unless you are robbing a liquor store), these days its all about the balaclava and Nibz is a local Whistler company developed by riders for riders. With five design/colours and a single layer polyester blend Nibz looks good and carries that Whistler street cred. Shop local!” –Eric, Get the Goods, Whistler Creekside Village. 603.935.7878 getthegoods.com
