nothing will help u.


seriously tho, all this bragging about skis on the eastcoast is bullshit.
i tried like 4 pairs of next years skis and they all ride pretty much the same and they all were from different brands. just fucken buy what u cann afford, they all are gonna break in two years anyways.

i say, the only differense is width and it has to be atleast 1cm to notice it... im talking about east coast here

i didnt notice any between scratch fs, PE, scott p3, my crichtons, your armadas...
the silencers were a little softer and i suppose the invaders are the same, if not softer.

just shut up and ski...

When a good deal comes around, pick it up.

If steve got a good deal on the ANT's, let him do it. Maybe it was too good to pass up. He knows hes going to use them (eventually) so why not?

I bought MSP's and i ski here. The deal was too good to pass up. Shit happens.

We are just prepared now right steve ;)

i woudlnt just throw out cash for something that looks good. im not some rich kid who gets something cuz it looks pretty. when buying skies obv the photograph comes into play. but i wouldnt buy it just on that. more consideration, alot more consideration goes into how the skis made etc and how it will benifit me for what type of ridding i do (jibbing i dont buy line cuz there edges might as well be paper etc...)

yea. graphics are the last thing i worry about but it still comes into consideration in the end. i wouldn't just buy skis for the looks. i'm broke as a mother so i do my homework before i go out and by skis.

so you demoed your fujatives before buying and every other ski youve owned?

sure construction means something, but when it comes down to it its how it skis. Everyone has a different opinion on how a ski rides.

I agree with i8van, haha i dont really want a ski that looks like ass. Id never look down skiing.

no i didnt. there is no where around here to demo twins. (i know that you will reply with places you can, but there is nothing convient for me) so instead i went to the local shop (mt kirby) and got my buddy who also works there to best fit the ski to me for how i ride. i told him i dont have alot of cash, i want something big, something with some give to have fun on. With his knowledge and my research backing me i bought my skis. (i enjoy other graphics of hte year alot more, regardless)
