    You can ship me those RPCs as a first step toward reduction =)
    Half curious how they hold up in such a top tier grouping.

    Lol... they are my touring rig with the CAST / P18 setup on them. They crush fresh dump days and are even fun slaying groomers at Mach speed... gets a little interesting when things really firm up.been pretty impressed by them... really gotta be on your game when it isn't fresh.

    The Quiver Pic Rerun Thread

    Resonates. Pure3 fanboy but not a lot of forgiveness there in many respects. Do love speed. Certainly aren't shy to remind you of their displeasure when you remove yourself from the drivers seat. Never skied the RPC ("only" 99,105,120) so color me curious. Thanks for the reply and if you ever decide to go skinny, 105 is a throw back hard charging variable condition pleasure. If looking to add to the quiver that is =)

    ^^ Not to hijack the thread, but what are your thoughts so far comparing the Vipecs and the Kingpins?

    Not enough days yet for any decent assessment. Just got em. I'll post up in one of the tech talk threads when I can say something meaningful... I do love my KPs though - that alpine heelpiece "thunk" when you step in is just so niiiiiiiiice.

    Finally think I have this quiver at a point where i won't sell everything next year and start over. Wife will be happy with that next fall.

    186 Bibbys for big days, I.E, all of December and January this year.

    180 pescados for touring.

    186 metals for the rest of the days.

    147 soul motion gold fish for the days I want faceshots on repeat or want lay down groomer carves.

    Very content.

    184 Volkl Nanuq w/ Dynafit Superlite 2.0
    193 Blizzard Scout w/ Marker Kingpin 13
    191 Rossi GS w/ Look PX 15
    194 Kastle MX 98 w/ Look Pivot 18
    202 Fischer Ranger 108 w/ NOTHING, to be mounted
    203 Volkl Shiro / Marker Jester
    189 K2 Pontoon / Marker Jester Demo

    Not pictured because friends are borrowing them
    187 Blizzard Bonafides w/ Look P14
    193 Blizzard Gunsmoke w/ Marker Griffon
    Lange RS 140 w/ Cast toes
    Lange XT Freetour 130
    Atomic Carbon Backland

    I'm not a fan of the Nanuqs, so they are going up for sale, but the rest have their quirks, but are awesome. I'm looking for a pair of 193 Shiros because the 202 Fischer and 203 Shiros are just too big in trees. Other then that, I'm pretty set for a while!

    The story behind that ski is that the Fischer pros went to AK with the 188 and it was too small. They got Fischer to build the 108 in the 202 length for them. But since production costs for 10 skis doesn't make sense, they made 100 pairs. I friend in Jackson has a pair and loves them, so I asked around and was told the ski didn't exist and wasn't for sale, I called bull shit. I emailed Fischer North America, asked if they had any pairs for sale, said who I was, aka a nobody in the ski world. They emailed me back and said they had a few pairs left, like 40 haha, and would gladly sell me a pair at a very attractive price if I could get a Fischer shop to say it was ok to ship the skis to them. I begged a friend in a shop in town to help me out, and he said sure. A few weeks later, they showed up and now they are mine! Once I get them mounted and ski them a bit, which will probably be next winter, I'll write a quick review in Tech Talk. I can say this, they are crazy light, yet super stiff. I want to say they are on par stiffness wise with my 203 Shiros, yet maybe 50% lighter. That is a guess since the Shiros are mounted and the Rangers are not. Maybe in the fall I'll get more scientific.
