Enjoy the feeling OP

I remember buying my first pair when I was 16. Debit card limit was $500 so I had to pull cash out from the bank and that was the scariest walk to the ski shop with my life savings in my wallet lol

Jesus Christ dude, you just couldn’t hype the man up on his first ski purchase? 💀😭





And in regards to the OP:
my first park skis were a pair of K2’s to! Hope you have a good time with them, mine got me through my first years of park and I learned a lot of my basics on em. Definitely a good feeling to cop something after a couple years like that, post some clips of you shredding the new whips sometime.

Damn, telling him the truth while being stoked for him isn't possible these days is it? You're acting like I roasted him for buying them or something lol. My message was truthful and positive

It felt more like a passive aggressive roast tbh. Truthful but passive aggressive negative vibes for sure.
