1) Reno Jib
2) Scratch WRS + another cheap ski/soft to screw around with (Invaders, used beater pair, etc)

i would keep the WRS and then get like a pair of invaders or fujatives. then u have 2 pairs of skis instead of just the reno jibs.

reno jib. i wouldn't really have a use for the cheap ski/ beater. if i were to have 2 skis, i would have a cheap park ski, like the invader, and some wider ski, like the live life or the seth.

I would keep my FS WTS and get a cheap, fatter soft ski, like anthems. Or, invaders if the anthems exceed my budget.

do that, screw the reno jibs. Theya re just a fad ski, sort of how Aeryx was. EVERYONE said they were getting it, and like no one did, and it just wasnt that great.
Your best off with a solid quiver, than just one ski.

depends what you wanna do. theres no point having 2 non fat skis. unless you teach or urban a ton. playaround skis dont get much use at all. i'll be using my old, beatup skis for teaching every few days and the occasional urban, but they are my old ones. i'll use my new t-halls for real skiing.

I do teach, but I have a pair of TMs I'm prolly gonna use, although they're way too short for me so I'd rather just sell the bindings at least off them, and get another pair of skis that fit me more. By short I mean a good head-length short.
I think I'm gonna stick with the WRS, plus I could save up later and just get a good condition fat ski instead

Bad association, B/C everyone DID get Aeryx.. there just wasn't enough of it to go around.

the jibs sound amazing from what i've heard
i was also thinking about picking up some beat up 92'ish waist skis
but they're kinda beaten up to ski a lot of powder, and kinda wide to do all grinding and i don't do urban

I alway rock one current model ski and one season old ski. This past season I had 07' Seth's and 06' Fujatives....
Next season Ill still have my Seth's and more than likely a new pair of Fujatives or some other park ski.
Thats just how I try and keep skis from getting to beat down and still managing to sell them at a decent price.

Yeah, I guess, but you know what I mean.
Ive been reading up, and alot of mixed reviews. Some people said they are a sick ski, others are saying they are poorly constructed and break rather easily.

Same exact thing I read. They're sick skis to those who they haven't broken on. Then again not sure if that many people have ridden the 07/08.

reno jib. Because when I had 2 pairs of skis I always used my good ones all the time anyway

Yeah, I wouldnt chance it.
Im picking up a beater urban pair over the next few weeks. That way, ill have my park ski, my urban ski, and like a pow/yard ski.

I teach though, on a like 300ft vert hill, ski on a bigger one. I'd much rather use a beater pair teaching, and it'd be more fun in general since they'd be a soft ski unlike the WRS which I can't really do much with on flat.
