I was reading the Snowriders Guide issue last night and came across a mistake in the Properly Equipped article on page 21. The Spyder pants pictured are the Inspection pants, but the yellow pants are the official pant of the Jamaica Ski Team, not US Team. You probably don’t believe me about the Jamaica Ski Team, but it truly does exist and Spyder is the clothing supplier.


Editor’s note: The writer didn’t intend to imply that the garment pictured was the exact US Ski Team edition, as it clearly was not.

  1. I hate to be the spelling cop but I was reading your snowrider timeline for Mt Bachelor and noticed that you have Bill Healy’s name has spelled incorrectly several times. Bill was a very important influence for what has shaped Bend and our region not mention countless contributions to the ski industry. The correct spelling of his name is easily accessible through many sources though I am sure the misspelling is most likely a common mistake.
