Jus so ya know keepers are meant to keep your edges apart as well as keeping the skis together when you hold them. Having them in front of the binding like that only does half the job, move em up to where the edges touch and they will prevent rust forming between your edges
I didn’t even think about his until you mentioned this but yeah - they’re supposed to be at the contact points lmao

that’s usually what I do, but when i took the pic, i just brought them back from the shop. The guy at ski fanatics insisted that putting a strap infront of the binding was all that was necessary
Fucked my ankle prior to last season while trailrunning, was unable to use my precious thanos dogs then, so I got them pretty much fresh for this season, only done one backcountry trip with them.
CatdickBojanglesI still love that bentchetler graphic. It’s honestly hard to find a year where it didn’t have a good graphic.
They're my favorite honestly. Best graphics of the early BC's imo. I'd ski them in only 8" of fresh or on a 50F slush day and they're still a blast. I don't think I could ever sell them, they might fall apart in like 10 years and I'd still hang em on the wall or something haha.

Faction Prodigy 3.0 and a clapped pair of ct.20s
Love these. I have some Prodigy 1.0s and I love them. What are your thoughts between the CT and Prodigy 3.0s? Always wanted a pair of one of those two or some Wides or anything bigger underfoot really.

Both are super fun. The ct are my rock skis now or if I want something shorter and lighter. That year of ct feels a lot like this years prodigy. This years prodigy has a nice and soft tip, but a stiffer tail. The ct is symmetrical so landing switch on them is really nice and easy. I haven't tried the new ct but I hear it is stiffer and heavier this year. My ct feels like a more of a charger ski. The prodigy is more playful though. People hate on the quality of faction but it really isn't bad. My prodigy have one day on the and got minor top sheet chipping, but I skied park for like 6 hour straight. I think rails make all skies chip up anyway.
I have three sets of mounted skis. I don't need that. Especially since they could all be considered a park ski. Next year I'm looking to have one park ski. And a pair of allmountain skis like a revolt or something like that. I guess I could keep a pair of beaters around
Always good to have a beater/rock pair. I’ve got a beater pair myself.

BradFiAusNzCoCaDamn you gotta sick setup. You ride copper?
thanks homie i retired my honey badgers and added the shreds, backwards, and vishnu’s this off-season. i’ve ridden almost strictly copper for the past 4 seasons but slowly all my peeps are moving away/ moving on. not positive i’ll ski there this year even tho i would love to.
That’s a nice trade off haha. Those Libs are super sick.
Copper is fun. I’ve got Loveland for the season. Love that it has the powder alliance too
