holy crap dude, skiing is about having fun on the snow, not having 234345 different pairs of skis. Just stick with a pair and have some fun :) and who cares if you don't like those bindings. That is a great deal and you can just sell the bindings and put different ones on there

The first pink and black ARVs are, in my estimation, the hottest skis ever made by anyone.

Yes. Hall of fame for ski graphics... but the thing with the ArVs are that the skis themselves kick so much ass. Not that scratch bcs don't, they're just more... practical.

my buddy had a pair before they were released but they we're prototypes and one ski had a sort of clear soft top sheet and the other had a top sheet almost like the Karmas (griptapey). the flex differed v v v slightly but thought u guys might b interested to hear that! seemed so wierd at the time.
