Carbs do give energy, but they also help spike insulin and very much aid in the muscle growth/recovery process, lots of studies done promoting post work out carbs.
Also if DOMS is an issue I find big doses of Omega 3 (especially with high DHA/EPA) and 200mb ibuprofen does an amazing job. Oh and obviously a couple of Asahi's in the onsn!

for the nutrition side, I would say after a day of skiing a high carb+protein based meal.

Sounds expensive for what you get.
I'm pretty sure there is a guy near Niseko who offers towing via snowmobile to access untouched powder and is only 13k(could be less), apparently much better than cat skiing.
Unfortunately I don't know his name / details, but you should be able to book him through your lodge/hotel.

I've had shin bang for the last couple of season.. Thinking about buying 'Booster Straps'. Has anybody used these? My boots got fitted at InSki a couple of years ago, and I'm worried they are slightly big and that's why i'm getting this pain (I don't ski backseat)!

I just bought Surface New Life for $300 from evo (http://www.evo.com/outlet/skis/surface-new-life-2012.aspx#image=43584.Size.LengthCM_194_Image.jpg). Pretty happy about these! I broke my Hellbents hitting a tree at full speed in Moiwa last season (v. lucky to not break any bones).
Lets hope they are good. Has anybody used them?

Entered! I've been on here for a couple of years but mainly just lurk; rarely post. If I win that will change!
