Skiing’s Weirdest Inventions

If there’s a sport that inspires more inventions than skiing, we have yet to see it. Why are skiers so prone to garage tinkering?

Check out the summary for our favorites.

Why Tuning Matters

If you live on the East Coast, you can skip this article and move on to your next procrastination—you folks know what a sharp edge is. But the rest of us soft-snow snobs may need a little nudge to schlep our gear to the shop or even learn how to do it on your own. This is why tuning matters.

Pro skier Drew Petersen turned his struggles with mental health into a mission after a life-changing accident on Mt. Hood.

Artist Series 2025 | Zane Colton Lerew

Wagner Custom is honored to have a new series of topsheets designed by Lerew, which are stunning and psychedelic black-and-white images inspired by sound waves.

Where Your Skis Are Made Matters

When it comes to ski performance, most brands tout their latest tech. But what many brands don’t really talk about is where their skis are actually made. And, just like it does with automobiles or bikes or boats, the factory matters. Let's talk about why.

State of the State: Women's Skis

In the last 30-plus years, the ski industry has gone back and forth about women’s skis more times than Mikaela Shiffrin in a slalom course. First we needed them. Then we hated them. Then we loved them. And, now, we don’t need them—what is going on? Let's find out.

Level Up: Kim Grant

As a guide in some of the world’s rowdiest terrain, Grant knows how to settle skier jitters like no other. To find out just how she manages to help so many skiers be their best selves, our inimitable podcast host Jason Blevins caught up with her in January 2024. Here’s what she had to say.

Artist Series 2025 | Shannon Foley Henn

There are some people in this world who inexplicably sparkle, like they toddled through a cloud of magic dust in some fairy forest along the way, and everything they touch sparkles, too. Artist Shannon Foley Henn, who designed our latest topsheet graphics, is one such person. We caught up with her to see what she had to say.

Demystifying Backcountry Bindings

While purchasing backcountry bindings is just one piece of the process, it can one of the most challenging. There are so many options with so many features, it can be overwhelming to figure out what’s right for you, not to mention how to work the damn things once you have them.

Backcountry vs Resort Skis

The incredible lightness of skiing: what differentiates a backcountry vs resort skis is not rocket science – it's all about weight.

Ski Poles 101

Ski poles have long been treated as the red-headed stepchild of your ski kit. They get run over in parking lots, forgotten outside of bars, mismatched, scratched, and grow less and less basketed over time.
