The Way I See It (Screening)

Sep 23, 2010

Match Stick Productions 20th feature length movie continues to push the boundaries for ski vids with gorgeous HD footage highlighting the record snow laden 2010 season. Shooting on location in Japan, Switzerland, Alaska and B.C.’s Coastal Mountains, The Way I See It presents the world’s best skiers doing what they do best--shredding the nar. The Vancouver screening will feature athlete appearances, prize giveaways and surely an after party.

La Bicicletta Pro Shop

La Bicicletta Pro Shop welcomes former runners looking for a joint-friendly workout. Co-owner Kevin Corkum says a focus on fitting means adjusting frame and components for both custom and prebuilt bikes (from $1,500 to $14,000); with a licensed physiotherapist and gizmos like motion-capture on hand, though, there’s no limit on tinkering.

The Pet Shop Boys

Offbeat location (in a strip mall at Cambie and 14th) but a must-visit for dog lovers. The boutique, spa, and daycare carries Une Vie de Chateau luxury dog beds and Hartman and Rose dog collars (pictured right), and uses Aroma Paws organic grooming products-so Fifi returns fresh as a daisy. They also offer reiki, therapeutic massage, and chiropractic services for dogs. Oh, and there's a dog psychic, too, who just may tap into the real reason for all those accidents on the carpet.
