The Quiver Pic Rerun Thread

179 and 198 in the same quiver - that's quite a range.

That's what happens when you grow up in Texas and buy your first pair of skis before moving north. 2 seasons in Utah, and my ability and understanding of skis has changed drastically. The prophets have been relegated to the bumps, and [there aren't enough skiers/ there is too much snow] for bumps to ever really form at Basin.

Dunno - my current quiver is 175 (Fischer Progressors) to 196 (Moment Bibby Pros).

2009 roxy helter skelter 166 - hard snow
2011 k2 obesethed 169 - soft snow

2013 lib tech freeride nas 188 - new daily driver
2010 k2 obsethed 189 - old daily driver turned early/late season
2012 surface live life 191 - pow

Been looking into getting that ski, but afraid it might be a little long for everyday EC use. No where around here to test out and compare the 178 size vs. the 188. How tall are you? Trying to figure out if it is a short or tall 188. Thanks.

if you look at the pic, the lib's and the surface's lengths seem fairly true to size. the obsethed's are way longer than their listed length of 189. probably closer to 194. also, the lib's have quite a lot of camber underfoot and when you decamber them, the tip and tail rocker almost doubles. wouldn't want to go with them too short.

This seasons potential quiver... at least I can start to call it that.







185 Salomon Lord w/ STH12 - Groomers/Low snow (maybe selling)

Overlap hoooooo!

Strict proponent of the "n+1" rule...

sent from the future using my mind powers

[bushman]

The only "overlap" I see might be the Lotus/Hellbent/Toons, but I prefer "what to choose on a pow day" to overlap. They are different in flex and dimension.

Let it FUCKIN SNOW

Old quiver, new storage solution.

185 Line Opus: powder and one ski quiver for trips

183 Line Chronic: park

172 Line Elizabeth: old park skis, currently a beater pair that doesn't see much use

I think my next purchase will be a pair of proper groomer cruisers. Probably Nordica Fire Arrows or something similar.
