Thanks, thats really helpful. I think I may go with the BMTs for being slightly more versatile in a wider range of conditions (suitably covered in Pam of course, XavierD).

gregL, I'd be very interested in any further thoughts you have comparing the Zero G 95 and the BMT 94. With end of season sales in Europe, the BMTs actually work out a bit cheaper than the Zero Gs...

It's an option, but I'd rather not pay for rental when I'm already paying for skis in luggage fees, and I can get a second pair in a bigger bag and still be under the weight limit (inserts and 1x...

Apologies for the hijack, but I'm faced with this^ dilemma - would the best option be to go with Powder Boards and then deal with dragging a second set of skis out for when the conditions aren't...

Thanks for the info everyone. It sounds like the internal flight will be risky since I don't really want to have to ditch a carbon canister if there is a problem. Will try and get clearance in...

Thanks for the responses - sounds like the consensus is that I would be fine without any harder snow skis in my quiver...

I'm fine to take the ABS stuff on the international flight to / from...

Hi

I'm super stoked to have a trip booked to Niseko at the end of January and am trying to ride the wave of enthusiasm to justify a new ski purchase - it's that time of the year when I'm itchy for...

How often do you think you will be wearing this 'layer' as your outer layer compared with under your shell? As you point out a normal fleece will be pretty useless at blocking wind and moisture, so...

Hi,

I am heading to La Grave for a week at some point this month (actually will probably stay in Les Deux Alpes). I have never skied here, and was wondering what the most appropriate ski would be...

One coming from London...

Thanks for the advice everyone, sorry for the slight hijack!!!



emailed praxis - no problem to switch, great customer service and prompt response...

Same issue here - I ordered 185 Praxis in the pre-sale, now thinking maybe I should try and change to the 195s if its not too late...I'm 6'1, 175.

Anyone have an opinion - It's my first r/r so am...

Thanks...

I think you're right, probably best to go with some duke/barons on the Tahoes and see where my backcountry forays take me.

Hi,

A move and various financial needs made me get rid of all my skis. I then spent most of the summer grabbing some great deals on gear to distract me from the lack of snow

This is what I...

Dynastar XXL 194 up now for $376

One pair of 188 Megawatts up now... - $380

Bump for a sweet deal....

Just bought two pairs with a friend of mine - thanks Melee

Mojo 94, all sizes - up now

Ok, sorry - I misunderstood what you had with you given all the space blanket talk.

My point is still that what skidog is saying is just really stupid - you cannot generalize and say that one...

I'm new here and really wanted to stay out of this but saying:



is just dangerous and ignorant!

Are you really suggesting that BH should have put himself at serious risk of harm, and by...

Thanks for all the input, really appreciate it.

I know it makes sense to wait until next season to see where I feel I have the biggest quiver gap...it's just hard to pass up on the deals floating...

1. They popped back up as a 'last second deal' - 1 pair (maybe a return?) Just lucky I was browsing then I guess...

2. Shipped to family in the US

I have a couple of racing skis so I'm covered for any groomer days with family or really icy conditions....that being said I will be doing about half of my skiing in Europe where lift served skiing...

Ok, sorry to sort of hijack my own thread....

I just impulsively pulled the trigger on (I think) a really good deal ($306 shipped) for Motherships 185 from Sierra Skis - I guess that changes...

Thanks for the input...I knew that the consensus would be to forgo food for the year and get all three ;)

People who have both a full reverse/reverse ski and a hybrid - do you still find use for...

Hi,

Sorry to ask such a Jongish 'which ski?' question....but time is running out on so many great ski deals, and I need advice.

I'm 6'1, 175, 21 yrs - Have skied 20-30 days/year, mainly in...

I’m new and submit to the obligatory Jong-bash, but after lurking here for a while I thought I might contribute to this great forum – couldn’t find any info on this ski here so I hope someone finds...

Thanks for the advice. I'll go ahead and try to do the class this spring. If anyone is interested in joining a privately organized AIARE level 1 course in the Tahoe or Kirkwood area during the first...

Hi,

I had hoped that my first post here would be more exciting, with pics and vids of skiing and hot women, but I have an important question – so the stoke will have to wait for now…
