So over some time I've accumulated a good amount of money (around $750) and I'm not sure what to spend it on. No i did not get this money from my parents so no need to hate. I've been looking around for some good pow skis to get and some new outerwear. I know I'll probably get a lot of "spend on what you want" 's but at this point I just want some NS opinion. I'm debating on whether to save the money til summer to get some sweet deals and what to spend it on. Thanks for the help

im lookin for pow skis. i like to shred around the pow and drop a few cliffs. currently ride on 176 suspects. lookin for some pow skis cuz im diggin pow>park lately. btw if it helps i just demoed some line sfb's yesterday (some of the first pow skis ive ridden) and i thought they were a good width underfoot (115m). I ski around snoqualmie, crystal, baker, occasionally hood. etc. so at snoqualmie we get a decent amount of snow. hope that helps let me know if i should add anything

Got a pair of 182-cm Czars with bindings I'm selling for 375 if you're interested:


Only used them 5 times. I'll be in Seattle next week so you wouldn't have to worry about shipping costs too

what beats me is why you snagged those and then drilled them before immediately trying to sell them. What a waste of amazing skis.

Haha, alright. If you dont cop a pair of used skis for a steal and want to get new, check out the Caylor - super rockered, designed and built basically for a dude that rides at Baker, a 181 or a 191 (depending how hard you're gonna charge) would work pretty well. Bamboo core, beefy edges and bases to keep you good through rock hits, and with some camber underfoot they can actually hold their own on groomed.
