so my parents arent letting me buy new skis. they control my bank account. i lost all hope when my dad went on a rant about how i bought brand new park skis last year and "destroyed a perfectly good pair of skis" on rails, even tho none of the edges have fallen out or even split. i am so dejected.

Either find a pair of this years that are on sale, or just annoy the shit out of them until next season

Or keep your skis and use them once next year, and complain about how horrible they are(or break them)

You have brand new skis from last year, why not use them another season like most of us do?

i am, what most of u missed is i have TM's for park which i love but they suck for pow and crud and i want a ski thatll rip allmountain, and i make most of my money by working but they give me like xmas money and stuff, and they think that all the money i have is from them giving it to me, so they almost consider it "their money" also they want me to increase the amount of money in my bank account instead of decreasing it or breaking even, pretty much theyre my financial controllers, its BS and im guna just tell em to fuck off and im guna buy em...prolly this summer wen everything is cheap

^ hahaa

My dad got pissed when he found out I started skiing rails. That is when I had to start buying skis. But the only ones they bought for me were as a graduation present from 8th grade. Second generation K2 Enemies... the originals. Those skis rocked...

Ah, those were the days.

Try explaining things to him better. Parents don't understand what's going on and if you sit down and show them what you're up to and what you need to do it with, they may respond better. Parents really just don't understand and can't comprehend/justify it cause they haven't seen it before. Just a bit of advice.
