I wouldn't say I got fucked because that's the retail price on the Line site. You just got a really good deal. Also, things are a bit more expensive in Canada I find, especially for shipping even though that didn't apply here.

Although I'm probably gonna buy a new helmet, cause mine is a few seasons old and I could probably find one that fits better.

Your a fucking idiot. Our industry needs as much money as it can get we had a rough year last year. Skis companies are going bankrupt and you say giving them money is bad? As I previously stated, you are fucking stupid.

I'm not saying that you shouldn't support the industry, especially because I work in it. I'm only stating this thread is full of greedy kids with too much fucking money. I've seen multiple posts bragging about the thousands of dollars they spent on themselves, and how many of these kids spent a single cent on someone else? I'd wager it's well below 25%

I don't have a problem with mommy and daddy spending all their money on new gear for jr this year, my problem lies with the greedy kids that I feel don't truly appreciate what has been given to them.

P.S. you had previously stated that I was a fucking idiot ( with improper grammar mind you; it's you're not your. You should have learned that in about the third grade...) not that I was fucking stupid. Just FYI in case you wish to continue to be an asshole, maybe the next time you won't make yourself look uneducated.

this thread is out of fucking control.

I'm pretty happy with all my few years old gear... i'll be spending ~500 euros this winter on one week of skiing in either laax or valtho. and maybe 60-80 a month (if i'm lucky) on indoor shredding in nl.

I feel like spending thousands on gear is fucking absurd. with that 2000 dollars worth of fresh park skis, boots and saga uniform you could go on an awesome trip to another resort/state/i dono what for a week.

skiing > looking cool

Everything I used last season, and about $200 worth of outerwear. I'm 16 and don't have a job so I'm scared for next year when i have to replace my equipment. It took me a whole summer of mowing lawns and miscellaneous jobs to pay for some low end equipment.
