just as the title says,
how much does your gear weigh?
my skis with bindings-2005 public enemies with rossignol 100 bindings weigh in at about 12-13 lbs
and my boots from last season, nordica bsx, size 25.5 weigh in at about 8 lbs together.
my new boots for this season, salomon mission rs8 weigh in at 9lbs together
so im looking at riding with 22lbs of gear...

snowboard boots have certain boots that are really light, do ski boots have these too?
i really felt all those 21 lbs last season skiing...=/

what do you guys think about weight of your gear and how it affects your performance?

The only thing that could have made the assassins any heavier were the reactor bindings, and even SPK or Full Tilt boots wouldnt help that.

Now i have last years Anthems with the Px12 jib bindings, and last year SPK Kreation boots, and it feels like i have nothing on my feet.

are the 05s really that bad?
these are my first twin tips and i thought they did pretty well...
but what do i know?
the k2 public enemies were the first skis i've bought lol
before that i was using rentals, and they were rentals from the resorts..
so i guess the k2 public enemies are my first twin tips that i've skied with.

the 05s do look nice though...
