If you look closely you can see some Volkl P-9s and two pair of the yellow Volkl P-4s(?) alongh with the vintage Dynastars.
I'm looking closely and I'm also seeing what looks like some vintage Atomic Red Sleds and also some Kastle skis. I'm guessing that you feel the need, the need for speed and stability.Originally Posted by Miss Zula

The Nov 2005 collection:
(Straight skis, XC skis, and skis trashed beyond any hope of ever being skied again (though the G41s might be most useful for skiing directly on rocks), etc. not included.) Skis on the left are mine, skis on the right are Mr. AG's.

As if not enough to totally outdo everyone one time on this thread, AG is now posting monthly updates of her absolutely epic quiver...my hats off to you, madam.![]()
The last time we posted a quiver pic was 2 seasons ago.Originally Posted by yesIsaidyes
It doesn't change THAT often, but there's a pretty significant turnover from the last time I posted a pic. And the Gotamas and new Bros just arrived last night, so it was a good day for the quiver and required a new pic.

Damn! The new Bros arrived?!? Still waiting patiently for mine.

I love the token blown up AK Rocket up top... so many people have a few of those.
I spy a pretty sweet coffee can on that work bench, I think.
AG - have you tried the Gots yet? Its a funny mix, the Gots and the Phat Luvs both under the same skier. Do you like the k2s? Thinking about them for my wife.
Yeah- I demoed the 183 Gotamas a while back at Snowbasin on a non-pow day and they were manageable and occasionally really fun (when I could find something soft to ski in for a turn or two) despite being completely the wrong ski for the conditions. I think they'll be a blast when conditions are good though. I'm thinking I'm going to put AT bindings on them. Anyway - I skied G4's/G41's for a few years - I don't think the Gotamas will be such a leap.Originally Posted by yesIsaidyes
Craig bought me the Phat Luvs for Christmas about 2 years ago because I wanted something short and easy for trees. I've been pleasantly surprised at how good they are as an all-purpose ski. They used to be my "skinny" skis, until I picked up the SX:9's at a swap this fall. Which I also demoed up at Snowbasin and liked but couldn't justify the price until I found them like new for <$150. They were perfect for today since it wasn't worth leaving the groomers.

Yeah - I was thinking of cropping the picture, but it is pretty funny with that ski on display up there. You can't see the good part - there's about 3 feet of edge that's not attached to the ski anymore and little bits of wood and crap fall out of the core if you shake them around.Originally Posted by FigureEleven

Lots of skis, all bound for tele. I've got bindings for the unmounted ones, just haven't gotten around to mounting them all up yet.

Those Thrashers make me drooool! Aren't the PFD's a tele version of the Line Lizzy's? They look dope!
I've got more suits than Liberace, but less than Eastvailhucker.

Those Thrashers...they make me so happy, I think a little pee came out.Originally Posted by 3pin
It's heartbreaking to see a chick who's too anorexic.
Can I have your skis and your girlfriend please?
Re-posting after changing hosts.
Quiver turned over a lot this past year, becoming noticably more obese.
Funny thing there, Graham - besides being tele-functional, our quivers are analogous in other ways:
Tablas = Thashers
Surreals = Bros
King Salmons = Jak Teams
Inspireds = Jak BC
Mtn Surfs = Powder Pluses
bigstix 7.6s = Agents
Course SLs (not shown) = VR27s
Along with the SO quiver:
Havocs = PFDs
TM22s = V-Pros
Nice Whelk sticker
...I just want to say how much I love this thread![]()
