as almost all of my equipment has broken this season, i feel that for 2011, i want equipment that will actually hold up for more than 2 months.

i am planning on having:

-my current fulltilt hotdoggers, but with metal buckels so they  dont fail

-look pivots which were just mounted on my atomics after going through 2 pairs of px12's

-moment reno jibs

-moment outerwear

after doing some reasearch i have come to the conclusion that this is the most durable equipment on the market(except the moment outerwear as thats new, but its been tested, im hoping lol). is there any opinions, or more durable equipment you would reccomend? i will welcome critisism

for what it is worth the ski company who made the 'other ski' in the post by scott has been mentioned in this thread as being durable.

k2 I'm guessing then.  Was my original guess but changed it because I looked at the line up for white bases and didn't see it haha.

ive heard rossi and head are insanley durable. the head skis look dope next year, and the (one on the left at least) rossies look sweet as well. if any one has any testimonials on either brand and/or specs on these 2011 skis please let me know, as for outer wear, me thinks orage Taylor Seaton's jacket with whatever pants come with it or oakley air raid pantsClick for larger imagethe head pics wont post for some reason but scroll down on the https://www.newschoolers.com/web/content/readnews/id/3136/ sia day 1 page and they are the ones on the far right beside the ones with the geometric shapes
