I wanna know what you NSers favorite skis are/were. Throw up some pics of your setups and say why you loved them so much!

For me, my favorite pair was my PE's.. got the skis for free so I figured why not. They turned out to be so fun... I had them mounted at true center and they actually were way more fun than any other PE's I have ridden. They were the skis I was on when I really started progressing, so they have sentimental value!

I enjoy my Pipecleaners a lot.. but there is something about those K2s...

I really like these skis a lot too for hitting jumps and bigger features in the park, not bad on rails either

I concur

I still remember my first day riding them after two years on the black and gold public enemies.  I was astonished with the difference, and I loved these skis instantly.

2000ish Dynastar Concepts. My oldest and favourite pair of skis. So light and springy and happy. I landed my first 360s on them. I had my first pow day on them. I tell the kids I'm teaching that I crashed into a cow and it stuck to the bottom of my skis. They carve well enough that I refuse to take them on rails and muck up the edges.

My dad has a pair of Candides from the same year that I might have to take from him if these ever die.

Kind of, I guess I was just trying to see how diverse peoples tastes in skis are. It's cool to see what people ride and love.

I like how they carve, but they are a little heavy and dead in the park. I also like to butter and stuff, but I had to set my din so high to do it on the PEs without popping out cuz the skis are so stiff
