People With The Same Skis as You

Is it just me or is it that every time that you see someone that you don't even know with the same skis as you, you feel the need to be better than them. Is this a real thing, or am I just crazy?

Never seen anyone with another pair of Moment Night Trains, but I see people on bibby's somewhat often and always make a point to go over and engage in a conversation about how rad we both are.

I have suspects, so usually when I see another kid with them we talk about how much the skis suck. If I hadn't gotten mine for free I wouldn't be riding them but hey free skies is always nice.

I have yet to see someone with whitedot "the ones" on the mountain. When I do, they will receive a high five for their awesomeness.

I'm gonna go ahead and guarantee you don't need an 18DIN binding either.


On topic though...never seen another person with my skis. I have this year's Jmos and some 07 AR6s.

I see so many people with the same skis as me that it's kinda lost the magic. That's what happens when you ski Lines on the EC.

I ride at 14, I want FKS but would rather not have the fks 140's maxed out, especially on the winged toe.
I've had some bad experiences with the non metal toe, but go ahead and tell me I don't need to be at 14. I'd love to explain to you how my forward pressure is perfect and the DIN tests perfectly. I only eject when I need to, and I have yet to have any situations where I wish I would have ejected and didn't.

Those are sick!  I've seen a couple pair of factions, I've always loved their graphics.

And I used to have afterbangs, so pretty much every other kid had a pair wherever I went (in the park at least).  Now I have revivals, and whenever I see a kid riding them I just yell "NICE SKIS BRO!," and give them a fist bump.
