Alright, i guess im a pretty avid skier. But i have come to the decision that i need pow skis. I got some Rossi s4 jibs and those arnt the best in pow...

I am NOT looking for a really good pow ski. I live in michigan so its not like im skiing Alta. I just need some pow skis to get me through some pow and some bc kickers.

lets see im 5'9" 140 pounds. and a pretty aggressive skier. Im super tight on money so i need a cheap ass ski.

im looking for some shit pow skis so if you got any, hit me up. Bindings would be a nice addition as well.

Any suggestions? +k for bumps

Okay not trying to hate or be mean. But dude you live in Michigan, why would you need a pow ski? It snows like 150 inches a year. Anyway, a good ski would be the Line Chronics. You can take those skis just about anywhere. Backcountry, urban, park, groomers they work everywhere.

try these: http://www.levelninesports.com/Palmer-P04-Big-Mountain-Twin-Tip-Skis Super great price! they say "all-mountain" but they have Rocker so it should keep you from sinking.

yeah i was looking at some of those. idk i just need to find someone willing to let their pow skis go that they had like 3 years ago. i mean im only gunna use these a couple of times so they dont need to be new, or even in good condition. hha
