How do you feel about your skis? (no hate thread)

instead of talking about how upset they are their new skis are already ripping an edge or the countless other defects that can go wrong, lets talk about how happy they are with their ski choice. That way people can see real reviews from peers about the good side of the ski and not the bad. We all know the reviews on a shops website are fake half the time.

4FRNT TNK's- love em, have been super durable and no where near as heavy as I expected. They ride rails like a boss, 1 little edge crack is not stopping these babies from going 100 percent in any condition.

'10 Dynastar 6th Sense Spin - Kinda heavy, not super playful, but they're bomb-proof, hold a nice edge, and are really stable

07/08 Dynastar Nothing but Trouble

Really lively with great pop for jumps and bomb proof. Been on them for 5 seasons and they're still holding up. definitely has a speed limit though and since they're so light they get thrown around in crud. Definitely g+ot my money's worth though.

third season with my volkl ledges 08-09's.  I love them overall and I am pretty surprised that they have held up this long.  the way theyre doing I could probably get a couple more seasons out of them.  The ledges are an overall great ski.

love the hellbents, such a sick ski, handle charging well, seem fairly light for how big they are, also super epic for cliffs

09/10 salomon lords. Love them. Great for bombing the groomers or powder. They dont turn on a dime though so bumps and trees can be a little difficult
