skied my atuas (96 underfoot, 186 length) more often than any other ski in the quiver this year.Dear lord, a one ski quiver fatter than 84mm for the East? I think I skied my Watea 94s 3 times in the East this year.

Yep, love 'em. It's also the first boot beyond the beginner-intermediate level that I've had, so I don't really have a basis for comparison. What about them don't you like outside of bumps?Gonna stick with the Kryptons?
I don't dislike mine, I'm just really not sold that the design (non-overlap, forget what you call it) is all it's cracked up to be. For just bumps, they're great, but they leave a lot to be desired in other types of skiing.

skis - looking for a 1 ski quiver replacement for my current Nordica AB (84mm), which have lost their allure. i'd like to go a little wider, kastle fx94 skied great but is way out of my price range.
pants - want something a little more water-proof than my Columbia but i'm a fashionista so finding the right ones has been hard.
Jacket - (added to my list) i'm a jacket whore, more jackets = more better. specifically i'd like to find a light weight yet warm jacket for cold days.
[/LIST]
gloves - low on my list but would like to find a cold weather replacement glove with a soft nose wipey thing and a goggle scraper.
Between the new set of wheels for the spouse and upcoming college expenses for the oldest son, ski equipment purchases will likely have to wait...:-(
If I can get a killer deal on some Nordica Speedmachine boots I may take it. The recent offer on the Nordica Afterburner skis is tempting as well...

I also got 8 days in on the praxis pows :razz:
I can't find these online- can you provide a link?
Now that work gloves are super cool and trendy I think I'm going to pick up a pair of these. Nice and waterproof.

Thanks for the advice...just waiting to see if the prices for the 110 will drop from ~$500 anywhere. :-?Get them while you can, they've been replaced for 2012 with the Fire Arrow 3 buckle boot. It's not getting great reviews ...

something fatter and better then the pos twin tips i've been using. the forward mount is freaky on those.
new pants. i cant carry the weight of the red baron powbmps bump pants anymore. need something less flashy.
I certainly want new ski's but I haven't figured out what yet, at all.
I definitely need poles since I bent the crap out of mine yard sailing it repeatedly at Sugarloaf
No plans for boots
I do need new ski pants, I tore mine with the edge of my ski at Wachusett on closing day. I also have a hole in the finger of my gloves.
I guess I'm pretty much like a homeless person on ski's right about now. :lol:
But if you had Watea 84s as well, which would get more use?Same with me and my watea 94s
