anyone get it. pretty nice. scratch bc was highest rated all around ski. liberty did kinda bad. they did companys i never even heard of before. the editors picks were all fat skis.




JW: Will skiers ever be as “ cool� as skaters? I think we’re trying way too hard.

CV: NO, our sport is way to inaccessible. You cant just go skiing, you need snow, mountains, expensive skis, boots, poles, goggles, clothes and then a car to even get to the mountain and finally pay way too much for a pass. Skating, all you need is a skateboard that is why we will never be “as cool.�

yeah, i am not a huge fan of buyer's guides but this was better than usual I guess. I just wish they didnt make it the ENTIRE mag. I didnt really care this year cause I actually am buying skis, but it must suck for someone who isnt in the market for new equipement

Where did you get your clothes, the toilet store?

I really was hoping they would ride the ninthwards, I wanted a good review on those. Sumo's got the best rating at 9.6, and gotama's came in second with 9.3. Volkl rated really well. Anyway, does anyone agree that JP has the best ski stuff ever? Orage, Joystick, salomon, apple, Armada, everything was soooo nice.

For some reason i dont feel like being passive and have to tell teenagewaste and that other kid to stop being idiots, this is a ski community, if a kid wants to know about the skis then somebody tell him, lets share here.

they basically said it's a great park and pipe ski. they spin well, and ski switch well. the only complaint was that it wasn't quite stiff enough.

i thought the guide sucked, they didn't say much bad about any skis, it was too positive like they were scared to bash a ski
