So I usually tell people to be quiet about 2007 stuff, but...

I already have next year's attire picked out. Yes yes I am hypocrite. But, when I saw these two together I started salivating. 2007 Burton Ronin 3L Jacket and 3L Vent pants. Semi-pinstripe black and semi-pinstripe lime. Soooo sexy. (and please excuse the poor cut and paste job with some cropping, I did it in like 15 seconds). These pics dont do it justice

don't even worry about it. They are only going to make one, for me ;) Seriously though, it is the Ronin 3L jacket, which means it will probably be 20,000 mm / 8,000 g/m/s2 So, not only will you (or I) be riding in style, but in a 20K suit as well :)

I know. The HUGE downside is that pants and jacket together run $600. I will have to sell all my old gear and work hard ;)

600?!?! I bought my sessions pants and jacket at tjmax for $88, that $500 bucks could buy some dope skis or a season pass or something... I guess if you have the dough.

Not that impressive. No offense to Burton but I would rather support a skier's brand of outerwear.

Yes, I would trade with you in a heart beat! I would kill to ski that often and would gladly wear garbage bags to ski so much.

that is personal opinion. I have never bought anything brand new or from a high end store or the newest model in my life: cars, clothes, shoes, skis, boots, you name it. So, now that I have been through six years of college, paid my way through by working 30 hours a week instead of skiing like most people here, and now have a full time job, heck yes I am going to spend a bit extra next season to have what I want :) So, to you, perhaps it is overboard. But I think anyone spend more than eight or nine thousand on a car is absolutely absurd, but a large population of our country does it. Just different values man. :)

i completely agree with everything u said, a lot of people blow money on stuff like cars and clothes...for now im iN HS my parents pay for clothes and shit, but i kno for sure that once im in college i will try and find everything cheap, get clothes at thrift stores, and eat top ramen. but i agree with you 600 on outerwear after hard work is okay, in the grand scheme of things it really isnt that bad like u said compared to money on cars.

hahahaha top ramen. As a college student I will tell you that there is only so much of that stuff you can eat. After a couple weeks eating that you will hate it!

^thats one of my weaknesses. although i just recieved my new skis, and man does it feel good to have saved up and get rewarded.. one of the best feelings to have something of your own that you know you earned

^^ word, i just got new skis in the mail too and its so much cooler when you actually own them and you know you've earned it. plus spend whatever you want if you've earned the money and it makes you feel accomplished. i've spent like $800 on new skis, poles, helmet, boots, and bindings. was it worth it? hell ya it was!
