High Society Skis

Anybody have any experiences with them?

The FR looks tasty.

What is wrong with your Mantras? I sense gear envy....

nothing wrong with the Mantra's, in fact i love em. Looking for over 100 under foot, wood core and not cap construction. These seem to fit the bill. Yes some gear envy....I NEED A NEW POWDER BOARD......NOW

I'm thinking about mounting the Dukes.

No idea about High Society skis. How about one of these on the cheap:

I am looking at the 94 for this year's model.

damn that's cheap!!! thanks now for the rest of the day i'm going to try to justify dropping another 300 on equipment.

Damn cheap indeed. I thought about it. Ultimately, i want more sidecut than those skis provide and the slightly narrow 94 of this year seems a touch softer and more nimble. Still, for that price.... jeez.

Steve buys skis like Imelda Marcos buys shoes.

LOL. Who the heck is Imelda Marcos?

I did not buy any skis last season. I have picked up two pair in the past two years really cheap that did not become part of my regular quiver but it has been two years since a major purchase. I am pretty dialed into what I like at this point, I just need to replace the Bigs with something a bit more everyday for powder days whereas the Bigs don't excel in tree skiing powder. Just not a good tight tree deep powder ski.

Hehe. Check it out.


Anyway... you might consider this deal: 2007 Public Enemy for $260

That is probably what I'll be remounting my Freeride's on for this season. And don't worry, I'll still keep around my neon green-base Cut's... I think they'll be my bump ski

I don't think I could ever bring myself to buy a pair of K2s. One of the few ski lines that just turns my off. Maybe it is just the top sheet.

Despite how loud the topsheet is, my wallet is louder

 

[riverc0il]

Money can't buy style.

....

Nor steeze for that matter.

....

But it can buy steezey skis.

 

[snoseek]

[snoseek]
