Line Elizabeth

1. Eric Pollard is a genius

2. Do great in the park, Wide as F*** so they work great in pow.

3. Soft flex no more UFC fighting against your skis to get them to butter.

4. Did i mention Eric Pollard is a F***ing genius

Either Amplid Syntax or Armamda AR6

Syntax is super light and poppy
AR6 is quite possibly the best all around ski ever made.

Volkl Tigershark 10 Foot Power Switch.

As a former racer I'm pretty biased toward Volkl skis but I have great reason to be. Perfect ski for people who love speeding down groomers all day long. They also have switch technology which makes them 2 skis in 1. You can switch between GS and SL right on the hill and the soft setting is just amazing. Besides the fact they are incredibly fast and carve so easily, they are an excellent quality ski.

ON3P Wrenegade.

Absolutely amazing all mountain ski. Rips big lines, pow, crud, slush, groomers. Relatively light, tons of pop, very lively, extremely stable at high speed yet easy to ski with the girlfriend. If I could only ski one ski for the rest of my life it would be it. Oh and I help design it, that helps. :)

2008 Armada Jp Vs Juliens

Everybody hated on these skis but i got them and they are poopy and perfect for absolutely everything, they rip through crud like a tank and can tear big mountain lines, and then go into the park and slay. I absolutely love these skis!

gotsta go with Liberty Double Helix. I can ski that fatty in almost all conditions, no matter how bad the snow is. Super fun in deep stuff, but it busts through the crud and rips goomers as well
