Why not? Washing doesn't do anything but clean them, and I bought them used off BST so why wouldn't I? They had a few stains so I thought it might help, the problem was using fabric softener by accident.

LTEs sound like sick skis but they aren't fully symmetrical. I'm going with Atomic Punx and I'm in a pretty similar situation to you, live in Ontario, 15, 115lbs, 5'7, want a soft and light ski, etc. etc. and Atomic Punx are just about perfect. I'd look into thalls too if I were you. They aren't fully symmetrical but I've heard good things about them.

^It says they add 2-4 inches in length for the long fit jackets. But i'm trying to figure out which sizes get 2 inches, 3 inches, and 4 inches.

so XS is 32 inches, small is 34 inches, medium is 35.5 inches, and large is 37 inches, Xl is 38 inches, and XXL is 39 inches. Those are huge. S is the same length as L saga, haha.

really? where do i even start with this fail.

1. fulltilt.com is a poker website. fulltiltboots.com is a boot website.
2. if you had actually went to their website you would have realized that the only size they have is a 31.
3. obviously i searched around and couldnt find anything, which is why i came to ns. do you really think i didnt go to full tilts website first?

Well if you havent figured it out yet, i have the shittiest decision making skills ever, so once again i come to seek your help.

So which one do you like better?

(note that the purple and blue air raid pants are higher quality fersure..but i like the look of the foursquare "keep cool" pants (10k breathability, 15k waterproofing) way better. hence why im stuck)

click to make larger. thanks!

i have the chronic cryps and they are amazing for those big booters, they are on the stiffer side because they are made so you dont wash out on massive jumps, but i still have a nice enough pop to get on/off rails

took me a while to get mine. i sent Scott an email telling them that i LOVE their products, use their skis and poles all the time (lie), like everyone that rides for their team and would be a great representative for their company.

they just replied with "OMG are you the real big_spence from NS?! we would gladly send you 3 or 4 pairs of free poles. here you go!"









or you could just go here and buy them like everyone else:
