It looks like full-on winter out there - the snow guns have been fired up, cats have started their engines and patrol has started to get the mountain ready. The unofficial word (from patrol "getting the mountain ready") was that Great Scott skied quite nicely with three feet of fresh.

April showers really do bring May flowers in the Pacific Northwest with a little help from Vegetate—an annual ski and snowboard competition hosted by Mt. Hood Meadows. This unique event is unlike most in the industry. Of course there are the key elements needed for any comp, including a perfect half pipe, a creative rail garden, lots of prize money, and a continuous flow of beer, but the meaning behind Vegetate goes beyond the competition

Voile
This buyers guide consists of the newest skis, boots, bindings, gear, and accessories for the 2009 - 2010 ski season. It includes pictures, product reviews, and consumer reviews.
VOILE INSANE
The Insane has an all-wood core, cap construction, and local knowledge—Voile has been based in Salt Lake City since its inception in 1980, and makes everything in-house, including its wood cores—that’s tough to beat. A proprietary internal mounting zone for AT or tele bindings means that there are no inserts. It sheds some weight this year also, making it even better for burly backcountry tours.
VOILE SWITCHBACK
New from Voile, the Switchback combines the time-tested mettle of the classic Hardwire—cartridges set on metal rods for torsional stiffness—with a pivot-free touring mechanism. Like the other touring bindings listed here, this system is activated by switching a toggle to the side. What’s more, the Switchback gives you energy savings on the way up: It’s the lightest weight option in the touring class, not to mention the most affordable.
Volkl
This buyers guide consists of the newest skis, boots, bindings, gear, and accessories for the 2009 - 2010 ski season. It includes pictures, product reviews, and consumer reviews.
VOLKL AURA
Volkl’s women-specific fatty is, yet again, in the top tier of its category. Focusing on three key technologies—systems, constructions, and a unique lower-tip profile—the Aura is the Gloria Steinem of the women’s specific movement. All Volkl’s women’s skis utilize a 20/20 wood core, which is lighter and softer thanks to strips of Balsa integrated into the lamination. The female samurai on the top sheet should give you all the motivation you need to ski these sticks full throttle.
VOLKL BRIDGE
Volkl named this ski the Bridge because it is designed to span the gap between the park and big mountain. Picking up where the popular Karma left off, but with five more millimeters underfoot and a wider shovel, the dual wood core Bridge is a great everyday ski for a resort like Breckenridge where an off-piste run in light, dry powder may lead directly into a lap through the pipe.
VOLKL GOTAMA
The Gotama has assumed the place the Explosiv once held as Volkl’s flagship freeskiing ride. Fat and floaty, the Gotama shines in deep powder, but is reasonably lightweight and transitions easily to hard pack and groomers. There’s a reason this wood-core ski is ubiquitous at deep resorts like Jackson and Squaw
VOLKL KATANA
This new fat ski replaces the Sanouk as Volkl’s tool for big powder descents. Featuring a full wood core, vertical sidewalls, and two sheets of titanium, the Katana offers a “Powder Channel,” which basically bridges the swallowtail to allow for backward skiing. But make no mistake about it: This ski is for charging the fall line in deep snow, especially in the 197 length.
VOLKL MANTRA
Reasonably stiff with ample sidecut, this GS-style fat ski is a great everyday choice for skiers who face the fall line while riding mixed snow. The 96mm waist offers plenty of float in the powder, while the vertical sidewalls and wood-core construction provide excellent edge hold on hard pack.
www.powdermag.com VOLKL NZ: '08 Freeski Open Slopestyle Results
An impressive line-up of the world's best freeskiers competed for their share of the $35,000 prize pool at The Volkl NZ Freeski Open by the Royal New Zealand Air Force at Snow Park Saturday.
VOLKL SUMO
This twin-tipped fatty pushes snow like the wrestler whose name it bares. This solid, dual-layer wood-core ski is a frequent choice of heli ski guides. Not the ski you want if you spend most of your time scratching around on chalk or on-piste, but if you just asked the guy working the shop floor if he sells snorkels, the Sumo would be a good investment.
VOLKL TAKES ORAGE MASTERS: Burke beats Eliassen in 3-minute tie-breaker
After 5 heats of head to head competition, and five 10 minute jam sessions, the 2006 Orage Masters came down to this: one three minute head-to-head battle, Mona a Mona, Volkl's Sarah Burke vs. Armada's Grete Eliassen.
VOLKL WALL
New from Volkl this season, the Wall features a fully symmetrical sidecut for multi-directional riding, combined with the tough wood-core sandwich construction known throughout the brand. This ski is at home in the park and pipe, but may feel a little out of place anywhere else on the mountain.

The terrain is expansive (429,936 acres) and variable, with steeps, trees, glaciers, and everything in between. Bottom line, Whistler Heli-Skiing combines deep powder and endless terrain with the ability to enjoy the nightlife of Whistler Village.
