construction, shape, custom flex, durability, just generally skiing ability.

Iggies are the most durable skis made. Custom flex is awesome.

and they honestly just ski better than any other ski Ive ever tried.

and this shape is, thus far, my favorate shape in power. 20mm of taper between the tip and tail - the tails are easy to wash out spatula-style and they still rail on groomers.

You have to ski them to get it, but IMO they are worth every penny over normal consumer skis.

the BMT have been put off for awhile...

not sure if Im getting them.

Going to pick up a DP Lotus 120/138 first.

If there seems to be a spot for the BMT, maybe ill pick them up. But It isn't looking promising.

Quiver will be

192 Lotus 138/120 - pow, windblown, funky snow
190 FFF - pow, charging
185 Midfat - AT
184 El Jefe - everyday
179 SP - park

I know this is a really dumb question, so don't butt ram me but I thought Igneous stopped making skis a couple years back. When did they start up again?

I don't mean this in a negative way, but aren't all those skis combined quite expensive? How can you afford that?

Igneous stopped because Adam wasn't making money and it was taking a lot of his time.

He makes enough now to make a little cash and still ski alot.

I paid $1100, so a shit ton.

A yeah - these skis are pretty expensive.

Everything I made this summer (working for a Venture Capital Firm) is basically gone.

But my quiver is set for awhile so I will at least stop buying skis for a bit.

and Vicious got my old ones. The difference between the 265 and 240 flex seems perfect for heavier WA snow.

That quiver is quite redonkulous.I have some older FFLs. They rip. Still no other ski I've skied can compare to the stability of the Iggies. I'm ordering some LG's for next season.

actually...it looks like my dealer my be changing...

I really really really really want both the DP Lotus 120 and Lotus 138.

$910 a ski is a bit much, though.

Possibly going to rep for them, but still need to buy one ski first.

I am going to wait and not buy any more skis for the rest of this season and then see what I think I need.

Picking up a Lotus 138 for sure.
