Hey man I kinda of have a general questions for all you jabronis out there. I got 3 kids.........got my oldest one (9) a full set up and my middle kid (6) armadas and armada bindings whatever the fuck those are and now I'm looking for boots for her, and then we have my 2 year old son who is JR sized but will be 3 on New Year's Eve. Probably will be the size of a average 2 year old when he turns 3. Only got his outerwear set. I am absolutely amazed by the crazy price of toddler ski shit and also the lack of decent used equipment on the market to buy for that age but man I have no idea what brands or any of that to look at. Does anyone have any brands of skis/boots/bindings that they really like price wise and quality wise for basically 2-6 year olds. Kind of amazed at how little is out there to be honest.

I'll come back and provide a more detailed response later but where do you live/ski?

Also bold move on number three. You're in a completely different world than I am with two.

Word thank you muh g 🙏🏽

little dog rode I think 5 times last year for about an hour and a half each time on rentals. Not going to have a rental pass to use on him this year though. Skiing in Ohio

check
out the set up for my 6 year old girl (just need boots




And my 9 year old ( I forgot previously that she had a bday last week lol )








the weird part to me is that skis there size seem a good amount cheaper for some reason then any skis my sons size. Like 70cm or 80cm. Probably 70 but shit I can't remember at all what we rented last year 😂 I would just think there would be a good amount of 2 year olds or 3 year olds that ski 4-5 times and then grow out of their shit and it would get sold in great shape for cheap..........nope

most cost effective solution might end up being one of those boots that gets bigger as the kiddos foot grows ?

Once you know the sizes you need, I've had good luck on craigslist and ebay. Sorta gotta be diligent tho.

Full tilt growth spurt and Roces (sp?) Also makes one. You get three full mondo sizes out of each one. The main issue is water getting in when they're adjusted at the smaller sizes.
