BIGGER, BETTER AIRTIME

- Stratton Mt. - Vermont
- Sunday River - Maine
- Echo Mt. - Colorado

FIVE FAVORITE BARS AND RESTAURANTS – VAIL, CO
- The Tap Room – best place for late night shots and dancing on the top floor.
- The Chop Room – best burger in Vail, but the steaks and wine will make your girl…
- Sweet Basil – We think this is one of the best restaurants in the entire state but you better stop by the ATM…dollar, dollar bill yaw!
- Larkspur – good place for your first cocktails after a long day in Gold Peak and quiet and cool with your date or couples later in the evening for dinner. Good wine list as well.
- Osaki's Sushi - Best sushi in the valley…yes, sushi! Actually the only Sushi in Vail but its small local and great.
FIVE FAVORITE SPECIALITY RETAIL STORES – US
- Paragon – New York, NY. For a ski shop in the middle of Manhattan, it's the bomb!
- Boulder Ski and Golf – Boulder, CO. Some of the best tech reps in the country.
- Stapleton Sports – Aspen, CO. Has always supported massive Fate product…we've got to show some luv!
- Telluride Sports – Jackson, WY. One of the best boot fitting shops we know of.
- D-Structure – San Francisco, CA & Quebec, Canada. THIS place is our top and we hope to have Fate clothes there soon. From art openings, local hip hop and supporting the idea of brings urban kids to the mountains…it's all F.A.T.E
FIVE FAVORITE SKI RESORT HOTELS – US
- Little Nell's – Aspen, CO. The best on-mountain with amazing service and lux. But if you are looking value or something a little younger hit the Aspen Hotel or SKY. Definitely checkout the Hickey House for breakfast…. great local spot.
- Plump Jack Inn – Squaw Valley, CA. Right at the base and steps away from the Gondola you can't miss it. Comfortable rooms after hitting all those bumps on the West face of K22. Feel like a pimp in the Café Bar.
- The New Sheridan Hotel – Telluride, CO. Built in 1895 and remodeled in 1995, the hotel has Victorian comfort and is located right on Main Street, two blocks from the Gondola and just steps away from shops and restaurants.
- The Amangani – Jackson Hole, WY. If you are rolling in cash, we suggest the ultimate luxury hotel but if you are like the rest of us then checkout Teton Hotel Lodge slope side. You may need to have 12 to a room…but you didn't hear that form us dawg.
- Sun Valley Lodge - Sun Valley, ID. It's been there since 1936 but still rich in comfort. Bring more friends since they offer three bedroom condos.
