What do you think the skill level of someone should be when they get their first twins? I personally think it's when they start doing 5's. My friends little bro can't even 3 and he wants to get some juvy's.

i agree, why limit yourself? but kids should learn how to ski before they start jibbing

if they want twins let them buy, its kids like you who think that somebody has to be good enough for somthing, kids like that bring down what skiing is, to me its not about tricks or how good you are, its about how much fun you have.

I think people gettig into the sport of skiing should buy twins. look at the fujis and invader and dogens. they are all relativly cheap caompared to ohter all mountain skis. I know when i started out i didn't want to spend a lot of money and with these cheaper twins out on the market more people should buy them to save money but stillget great quaility.

I started skiing on twins 3 years ago, they ski well and I love riding switch. I'll be buying twins till the day I stop skiing.

Some Fischer skis now have turned up tails, not true twin tipped but turned up to help with turn initiation for the intermediate/beginner skier to commit to a turn.
