i have a lot of skis but they are all hand me down race skis....not gonna work for all mountain/freestyle. I have no money and need a decent pair of skis before april cuz theres a chance i might be going to the land of switzer. i was thinking about cutting off the tips of two old skis and welding them to the tails of a halfway decent pair....yes it has come to this. again i have no money

Steal money. Or skip the middle man and steal skis. But from a shop. Because stealing skis at the hill is punishable by death according to the laws of the mountain.

Punishable by death, and enforced by tundra sheep. No lie.

donate all the sperm and blood they'll let you and go to ebay. If you donate plasma you get like 30/40 bucks and a cookie.

sell all your stuff and buy some skis. You'd prolly be able to scrape together some $200 bucks from the stuff you sell and then go look on eBay. lots of good skis there for $200

dude you have 3 months to get some cash. how bout you start lookin for a job and save some money. im sure you can score some cheap twins by then. and if the race skis are halfway decent or at least have decent bindings on em sell that shit and see what you can make.
