I aspire to have your quiver. If you could pick two what would it be?
I'm thinking Lizzies and EPs?

haha yeh i'd get some touring bindings for em too! I don't really need them though its just want! I can't imagine any days i'll be unhappy to ride one of those two.
And i marginally prefer this years, the orange base means you get underlighting on the sunny groomed days ;D

They are better in pow if you mount at recommended than at true centre. When I had my first pair (mounted at recommended) I loved them in pow but that was before I owned EPs.
My current pair are at centre for park use. On groomed it doesn't make much (if any) difference.

My Lizzies are mounted 1 cm back from true centre. I feel that is the best mounting position on these. They're great in the park and feel balanced in the air, carving on groomers is awesome both normal and fakie. Also they're good in deep snow, especially in the trees.

I know I already posted. . . .  But I was drinking with my parents and we decided to take a picture of all the skis in the house.  We are missing my brothers goats (the new reverse camber ones).

I am also almost 24.  all of my siblings are adults.  1/2 of these skis are old and worthless.  most skis I use I pay for myself.  I'm from a family of 6.  everyone skis.  They are not all my skis.

if it makes you feel better... the last time me and my roomates took count we had almost 50 pairs of skis.  Most are still used in some way or shape too.  Over the years people start accumulating skis, not a big deal to people hating.

i think NPG posted these on the first page of this, but they are the same skis, 160, 135, 145? (cant remember tail dim, but still really fat, and i love them, will never get anything else!!)

Thanks! I love them. Best park ski I've ever had/tried.

There's a thread about Elizabeths in gear talk (probably first page now), go check it out!

Oh and rocker profile guy: I can snap a rocker profile photo of the EP Pro tomorrow.

Not many skis with more rocker than the EP. If you are interested backcountry.com has a rocker shots of almost all their rocker skis.

The EP Pro is stupid with that much rock, you only have an effect edge of like 2 inches!

Yes its a pow ski, but honsetly, dont you want a ski that would kinda work on the groomers getting back to the chair, even the ARG has 2mm of side cut for that reason.

Actually the EP pro is really fun on groomed and about a million times better than the ARG. When you put them on edge you utilise much more of the edge than you think. I guess I skied them about 40 days last season and most of those weren't fresh days..

I just got home. First day with the EP Pros.

I'm so happy I got these skis. They feel a lot better than the Hellbents I tried some time ago. They are ok on groomers, which I definitely didn't see coming. And pow... well, effortless.
