All you fucking idiots don't read stickies. Don't just name skis! You need to provide information about yourself, what you ride, and where you ride. Douchebags.

Exactly, I already did my research and am looking for anyone who wants to sell any of the skis I listed, or something else that isn't on the list, but with similar length and dimensions...so if anyone has any of those skis for sale, or some other fat skis that you think I might be interested in, shoot me a PM, or post what you're got for sale in here, thanks.

I'd looked at those, but $550 is a bit more than I'd like to spend if I can help it, I still need to be able to put bindings on them too.

True, I emailed them to see if they could throw me a hookup, I bought skis from them before and was super impressed, customer service was excellent. Bump? Anyone else got skis for me to consider?

From what I know, the Jp vs. Julien is softer, but not overly soft, not as soft as say...the ARV maybe, the Gotama, from what I hear, is on the slightly stiffer side of the mid range. If I'm mis-understanding this, someone please correct me.

Evogear had the 130's on ebay for $499 earlier so I bought a pair. You should wait to get the 130's, i think they are gonna lower in price once the new ones are released.

How are they, have you ridden them yet? Hand flexing, how stiff do they feel? And what binders are you putting on them? With brakes or snowboard leash? Sorry, alot of questions.

The people are nice there but you should have seen the first 130's they sent me. One ski had a huge bubble in the topsheet that would of made it impossible to mount a binding on them and on the other ski the wood core was exposed because it wasn't lined up with the edge correctly. I know it is mostly Lines fault for even releasing a set of skis in that condition, but evogear should also inspect their inventory before shipping them. Customer service handled it well though, they paid for the return shipping and immediately sent me another pair which were perfect.

There are the elizabeths, but they are short. I have also heard a lot of good things about the Line Bacons. I don't know what your price range is though.

I actually have a chance to pick up some Lizzies for cheap, but I'm 6'4" and I think they'd be WAYYY too short, and I thought about the Bacon, actually that was what I wanted before I started doing more research on Pow skis, and I still would like a pair, but I'm not ready to drop 600 bones on a ski that's brand new this year, and that I don't know that much about because there haven't been any reviews or anything like that.

The guys at jibij are really helpful. I am sure they have ridden a lot of the skis you are considering, even the bacons. www.jibij.com
