Which magazine is your favorite?
Why?

I get Ski, anybody read the November 2004 article, "Coping with Killington"??
I just wanted to see if others have a favorite! :mrgreen:

I voted for Skiing. Don't see much difference between that and Ski, so I figured I'd give them a vote:) I like the pretty pics in either.

They all suck and promote the same articles and crap. Some used to have short concise stories that were an easy read and NO BS. Now, they all think they are Hemingways and write garbage about nothing.

AND, they go to a place like Killington and report on "How to avoid the crowds" or "The secret stashes of Killington" . Great A-Holes, you just reported what we ski. Go back to you City office and suck on an exhaust pipe.

WTF for 10 bucks each. It's worth it just to get you excited each fall. :D

I think powder easily has the best pics, but I like skiing because its the only mag with a strictly east coast sectiong, even if it is only like 10 pages

Well i would've said FREEZE, but they're shutting it down after the January issue. Which is a major bummer for me because i just ordered my subscription for a full year and only got 3 issues. I really hope they reimburse me.

I get Ski for free from NASTAR even though I have never raced in a race. I simply get it for free, but I like SKIING a little bit more.

I have had a subscription for both SKI and Skiing for years now. I like reading both of them but voted for Skiing. That reminds me that I have to get in touch with SKI because I am missing the last three months issues. My subscription was not to expire until January but for some reason the last issue I received was September.

I get both Ski and Skiing but have to vote for Skiing. Skiing is just a bit more on the harcore skiier side where ski is more for the vacationing types. If you look at their resort and equipment ratings issues this year you can see what I mean.

I voted for "Other"

I receive SKI, but I wouldn't say it was my favorite. Most magazine's are just books of advertisements with some stories in between. I enjoy looking at all the magazine's, but I have yet to find one I could consider my favorite.
