If you stay on the trail and don't stray off that you should be fine. Once you start dipping off the sides is where you'll run into those damned rocks!


If you are going to be salty if you get any marks on them at all I would just not ski them yet!

Are you ski park or the whole mountain? Usually if I want to ski early season pow or all mountain I lean towards not using my new skis. Its always a bit a bummer getting a coreshot on a brand new pair of skis in November when you could have waited for better coverage.

In my point of view, you bought the skis to use them. So use them!

Is this a serious question? Did you buy new skis to rub all over your vagina? No, people buy skis to ride the damn things, they'll even take out their brand new pow skis on a icy groomer opening day to see how well they can carve, not to see how the rocker feels on their feminine taint. Don't be a little bitch, you bought skis, SKI THEM! Stop pissing me off God damn it!

I got a new pair of afterbangs this summer after selling my bdogs, I took my brand new pair up to a basin for my first few days, stayed on the trail and did a very low amount of laps through the park. I have 2 minor core shots but they were totally savable from just wax without busting out the ptex.

IMHO: you bought the skis to shred with, and they will eventually get beat up and become your old skis , that's just a part of the sport, so I say use them!
