Hello I am looking for a pair of skis (with or without bindings) that aren't alot of money but hold up real good. Anyone have any ideas?

Ninthward, never heard anything negative about their skis via durability and life. buying direct from their website i heard is a pain in the ass, the customer service apparently does suck.

Look in evo.com's outlet section, they got real cheap stuff.

I saw some K2 Recoils for under tree hunnit dolla, those would be prime.

Atomic Infamous is cheap and awesome if you like a softer ski. They're in stock at evo and backcountry still for $349

The only problem I have with afterbangs is that i have a pair, and my fifth time skiing on the the top near the binding tore showing the wood of the ski.
