Hey so I know it's not how the ski looks it's how it preforms but I was gonna get some skis (line traveling circus 2014) but I thought they might be a bit flashy and bright and would make me look weird what should I do

Nothing is flashy compared to a Volant.

Meh, the people that judge you based on the graphics of your skis are the people who's opinions you shouldn't worry about.

Just buy whatever fits what you want, as far as length, width, flex, etc

Do you like them? Do they suit your skiing style? Can you afford them? If yes - go ahead, buy them! If no - then no, don't buy them.

I'm guessing that's you just being self conscious about your skiing abilities. just get the skis you want and paint them if the graphic bugs you that much

Yea don't get them....unless you ski 100% park all the time they are horrendous on every type of terrain. WAY to soft.

yeah actually, OP, i think most people associate TCs with beginner park skiers. i do at least. so if youre worried about your skillzzz not being up to snuff for the ski you have, you don't have any issue here at all in my opinion. don't worry one second
