I am kinda new to NS But anyways, Christmas is coming and there is a lot things that I want/need. I don't know what to get, I am not gonna drop like 2 grand. But I need new ski boots, got the Black and white SPKS LOL and I still rock the Rossingnal S3's or S4's (snake/pig on them) So yeah my Gear is kinda old but still gets the job done. Any Ideas

It depends.
How tall are you?
How much do you weigh?
What kind of skier are you? All-Mtn, Park, Pow, Backcountry etc.
Skier Level? Beginner, Intermediate, Advanced, Expert etc.
Any other preferences?

The Chronics sound like a perfect fit. I just got the 2014 Chronics in 185 and am about 6' 4" 230. They absolutely tear the park and all mountain. With their rocker, you can take them in to the trees and ski pow. If your looking for something a little wider the Line Blends is also really good. Boot-wise, I have the Dalbello Bosses which are sick ,but Krypton Rampages and Full Tilt Drop Kicks are also great boots.

for boots, go to a bootfitter and get fitted, dont just take recommmendations on ns for boots and order them online. also get custom footbeds when you get fitted
