Day 20 - Snow on the way

Well, with 2cm of snow overnight and 15 - 20 cm predicted for tomorrow, it's time to dust off the powder skis and boards for one last outing of the season.

Today's hall of famers managed to carry on shining despite the slush so imagine what we'll see when the powder kicks off again!

Kim Ji-Sub, 32, Seoul, Korea


Once again I was lucky enough to talk to a pro snowboarder, and caught a glimpse of next year's Airblaster gear. Love the orange jacket - I want one!

Zehra, 30, Perth, Australia


This Burton gear was bought at Showcase here in Whistler, and hits all the right buttons for this season - impact colours, cool patterns and a fur-trim hood. Looks sharp.

Grant, 56, Whiterock, BC


A day out on snowcats with buddies saw Grant nicknamed "the pants". Can't think why...

The eye-grabbing legwear is from Quiksilver, with a Helly Hansen jacket.

Maria, 50, Heidelberg, Germany


Maria was demonstrating a bit of European ski chic in this pristine white jacket from Descente, plus cool stripy hat.

Tim, 21, Southport, Australia


Proper Whistler style. The jacket is DC, with Section pants.
