179 Bros, 188 Wailer 105's, and 190 Lotus 120's with Dynafits.
179's for long days, and billy goating on harder snow
188's for hard snow in open terrain and mixed conditions
120's for soft snow
Also have some skinny Dynafit skis (ST 3.0) that I probably won't use because I'm giving a pair of Comforts to my girlfriend.

The quiver has grown this year. It may see some thinning before the season is done, but at the start it is as follows:
178 Volkl Ledge w/ P12s for icy days and bumps.
177 Salomon Lord w/ Z12 Demos will see less use this year, mostly a loaner ski for visiting family and friends.
178 Ski Logik Ullr's Chariot w/ 900s Demos will be the daily driver when it's not too firm and the loaner for whoever wants to try them!
172 Karhu Jak Team Edition w/ NX21s for early/late season touring and longer slogs in the woods.
183 Bro's w/ Barons will see most of their time touring in the Prezzies this season.
186 Lhasas w/ Pivot 14s for new snow and the day after the big storm
186 Spatulas w/ 997s when needed.

DPS - Wailer 105's Pure for everday and most touring.
Wailer 112 RP's Pures for fresh snow over 6". Possibly some tours - especially for trips to SLC and Winter Park for SIA.
May end up with some Hybrid Wailers 95 and 112RP's if budget allows with Jesters.
Both setups with Dyna/Duke plates and Dukes and FT12's.
Older Line Prophet 100's for early season rock skis until they fall apart.The Passion is in the Risk

JJs-185: for soft, and touring (These skis are still cool and exempt from current Armada lameness because I bought them in 2008)
Garbones-182: for hard, and chargy feeling days. (We'll see how well that works out
Old beat up Karmas: for early season, messing around in the park, and soft slushy spring bumps.

188 wailer 105 pures w/dukes: they carve, they float, they do slack country, they slay all
I'll either add a groomer ski or pow ski next year(bought all new ski gear this year will be getting a blur lt or nomad in the spring)
I used to do the 3-4 ski quiver. I'm now a fan of an old western saying- "beware of a man with only one gun, he'll know how to use it" I found that by changing skis alot I never got to know the nuances of any of them. I would like to try a 'fun shape' though.

But what the hell, here goes...
184 Volkl Mantra--for hardpack and ice
184 Volkl Mantra--for powder
184 Volkl Mantra--for trees
184 Volkl Mantra--for the terrain park, skiing switch
184 Volkl Mantra--for moguls
18something BD Crossbows w tele bindings--for the hill behind my house and Magic Mtn.
No rocker, no crapon fiber, no waterskis, nothing made in China

185 Movement Sluff with Dynafit (with Titans) - getting ready for a CH ski mountaineering trip in March '11
185 BD Kilowatt with Switchback - for the 'powder' days...
185 BD Havoc with Switchback - for the rest of the time
183 Atomic RT86 with G3 Ascent - rock skis, out on loan right now
Ski Push boots with the telemark gear, mostly northern Ontario and Quebec but also Adirondacks down around Lake Placid. The telemark makes the east coast hills a lot more challenging. Also spend time at abandoned resorts in northern Ontario messing around in the trees. Have done some ski touring in the Adirondacks and eastern Quebec.
Working up for a big ski mountaineering touring session in Davos/Klosters area in March. Hopefully working up to Haute Route in another year.

178cm DPS Wailer 105s for everyday use (bombers)
186cm ON3P Billy Goats for 6"+ days and corn/west trips/touring (BD 01s)
I like a bit of early tip rise (rocker in case of the BGs) and more pintail like dimensions for east coast tree slashing. Need something quick and slarvyslashy. Mid-low 20s turning radius for lots 'o east coast turning. Also a damp medium flex allows for a smoother ride in the various conditions I deal with at Jay (ordered the BGs a bit softer than their traditional build). Stoked about this one two punch right now.Uno mas

Living in PA doesn't really warrant a whole quiver of skis. I'd rather have skis that are ok in PA, but versatile out West."In any case, I hate everything that merely instructs me without augmenting or directly invigorating my activity" - Goethe

1) Something too narrow to utter here for ice/hardpack.
2) Stockli SS's for typical powder (3" heavy turning to crud)
3) Enforcers for trees and boot top
