Hi guys new to the website, I live on the east coast, so yes it is very icy. But anyway I'm looking for some new skis in the 300-700$ range.

buy the ones with tips on both ends, they look stupid, but from what i hear you can perform the lucritive trick known only as the " switch " on them.

Yes ive heard of this "trick" but the only way to perfect it is to learn it from the great "Switch Monks" deep in the heart of Africa.

also if you get the dual tip skis you can hit some pretty mad ramps and get some gnarly grinds on those metal bars

these are really sick in the park, very stable and good on East Coast ice whilst also remaining noodly and very butterable,
