    My brother has a pair of 181 Candides and they are the same as my 178 Concepts. The 178 Concepts are not the same size as the 178 Little Big Fats. All I know is the XXX's are long enough that they aren't ideal for being on your pack, treking through the woods...

    Finally, next years quiver is ready, now I only need snow....



    188 AX4
    190 Bigstix
    185 XXX
    182 Scottybob "Race flex"

    All are (or will be) mounted with 7tm baseplates. I can then have either 7tm or Linken in the baseplate. Will probably get some 7tm tour too.

    How do you ski with a different length ski on each foot?

    photoshop gurus can do just about anything.

    i only know about 25% of the features, but to me, its fundamental power is its ability to manipulate multiple layers of an image separately.

    my favorite steps were... varying brightness along the tips/tails of drugged monkey's topsheet to "bend" them up, shading it to match the white skis of twoplanker's photo, and softening sharp borders at the pixel level.

    Jackamo, feel free to PM me for photoshop details. "Good artists create. Great artists steal."

    Quiver is going well.

    It is hard justifying 3 pairs of skis to most people - being on this board makes it easier to rationalise irrational purchases.





    04/05 Volkl 724 EXP 177cm / Marker 1200 motion bindings

    03/04 Volkl V-Pro 180cm / Rossi Axial 120

    04/05 Volkl Gotama 190cm / Look P12

    Really want to add Stockli Laser SL to the quiver for next season.

    I'm hearing you on the justification front. Between the bro and I we have 8 pairs at the moment.

    Also, you mean Stöcklis like these ?

    166cm, got them this year in a somewhat case of brain malfunction given the state of my budget, don't regret it for a second !!!!



    What size foot are you ?

    there the little buggers right there, I thought you had the Atmoic SL skis - or do you now have both?

    Nice work.

    I have a 28.5 boot or 325 mm Boot sole length.

    The 146 K2 MinEnemy with Diamir II look like they are over 150cm.

    Dave and I both noticed that they are longer than 146cm the other weekend.

    Oh, and those Stockli's are making me drool big time.

    haha

    tjb asked, I just replied. Might need to pay Fred a visit.

    They are setup for 305mm though so 2cm of adjustment may be stretching it.

    You agree that your 146cm Enenmy's are taller than your Rossi's in a 150??

    Definately agree that the sizing is off! I'm still thinking of getting a pair of 158cm Dynaster InBigs but was worried that they would be too much of a ski for me . However now I am not so unsure after comparing sizes, especially after seeing those 160cm Rossi's you where on the other week.
