I know the season is ending, but I'm looking ahead to next year and I want to decide on a pair of skis now so I can keep track of deals on the internet etc. I live and ski in the east, but next i might take my first trip out west (probably Utah) and I want a fatter pair of skis (90+) that'll hold their own in the powder and park. I'll probably get alot of suggestions for jeronimo's, but how will they hold up on jibs/rails? Rocker is definately a possibility, and I really would like to try it. I've really enjoyed skiing on my friends volkl bridges (i like the flex and wide tip) and I believe that next years are rockered so I'll be looking into those. I want them to be durable for rails too. Thankyou NS

rossi s3s are a great do everything ski for the ec, as long as your not hitting 80fters or skiing 3 feet of deep they should be able to hold their own on the east

Yeah, I am seriously looking into these, but i just want to be sure about durability and everything since on3p is a new company.

Anyone know anything about salomon 2012's? Or something from k2 next year (i guess they are putting rocker on a lot of stuff)? Right now im looking mostly into 2011 bridges, and jeronimos.

Thanks

I just google.com/products and then search for the fujas. sort list: lowest first.

Its as easy as that, I check google before I buy a lot of shit. Saves a lot of money too

oh, and Fujas are great for all that is listed. they are 95'' underfoot, have tip/tail rocker and do VERY well in the park for their size. Very light, but really bombproof for me. They're sick in the pow too, you can really tear shit up.
