I think we should close this section of the forum because I'm fed up of everyone asking questions about skis, and getting answers from uneducated guesses...or every post turning into an Armada VS. 4Frnt war. I have plenty of questions about skis, but the truth is I'll never get what I want on this forum...and neither will ANY OF YOU! So, give it up, at least for a while, until this forum gets its dignity back. And the only good answer to any post of the sort is: 'there's a ski out there for everybody, and not everybody should use the same ski, so go out and demo a pair or borrow your friends and find out what you like, cuz no matter how good these NS guys are or how well they know their stuff, only you can judge for yourself what the best ski is for you. there is no such thing as a bad ski(except for Elan Airtwist), just a bad ski for you.'
Please excuse my ranting, but this has got to stop.
