My Intro
Skied on rentals for about 10 years since I am from Texas there was no need to buy. I am by no means a awesome skier but I do like the off trails stuff in Durango/Brianhead.... I've skied those Snow Skates, Phatty's or whatever you'd like to call them. Did snowboarding for 3 seasons but found skiing my home.
Moved up here a year ago after graduating college to work for Boeing now ready to get into skiing big time. Been up Stevens twice and decided to purchase some skis.
I recently bought some 2006 Atomic Deviants, yes I know a thinner ski but its my first pair of skis to actually own. Got some decent Lange boots and Atomic Bindings.
I'm in skiing to ski, so my skis are new, my jackets like 5 years old and pants aren't even ski pants but they work...Good goggles so I can see and decent skis its all I need
I'm ready to hit the slopes ... possibly tonight a Snoqualmie or Stevens.
K thanx

Possibly to Snoqualmie, but also UFC 79 is on tonight, chuck is fightin silva and my roommate (snowboarder) is having a few people over to watch it. So its either Fat Tire and HD UFC or hit the slopes...
Pick up my freshly tuned/mounted skis after work.

Go to Mt. Pilchuck ski and sport, they are good to deal with and have good prices...well they did for me.
I bet if you look around in the ski equipment forum you can find goggles, pants, coat, and skis in about 4.67435 minutes.
Welcome to Washington, I hope you are not skiing in jeans. If you look like a gaper I'll run you over.
Oh, and go skiing tonight: UFC+ beer < skiing.

Yeah I went to Mt. Pilchucks, great service... but when I was checking out I did a few gift cards and wanted to split the remainin balance on a credit card and a debit card... she put it all on my debit then voided it... but its still showing on my account. So i'm going through some trouble with that.
Anyways I skied Snoqualmie yesterday instead of snow coming down it was like tiny pellets of hail. Got used to the Deviants.
I may be up at stevens tonight if not def tomorrow.
