whos not getting new skis? seems like lots of people buy skis every year. This thread is for the people who ski on what they got till they cant be skied no more.

Im on 2 or 3 year old k2 silencers, some old pocket rockets for out west.

i've still got AR5's from 04/05. just bought some JP/Juliens though cuz i'll be in CO all season. Maybe this will be the year the AR5's die since i'll be skiing more park this year than I have in the previous 4 combined.

i work too, man and like i said, i am going to buy new ski boots this year. however, i have bills to pay, trips to save for, and other things that need finances.

nobody dare say "oh, well you're just not committed enough to the sport" cuz i will punch you in the face.

if i have skis that still work perfectly fine (even though they are last years), why should i buy a new pair when i really don't need them?
