| I would also suggest spending 50-60% (maybe more) of your $700 budget on new boots and custom footbeds fitted by a good bootfitter (where are you located? Perhaps we could recommend one). That may only leave $200-$300 for skis/bindings. Demo and once you find a model/size you like, try sites like eBay or other online ski shops. Don't skimp on the boots just to get better skis though. Buy something adequate (perhaps used) for this season and you can think about better skis down the road.
