So who has the hot ski this year, or I mean paid the most advertisment dollars.

Volkl or Nordica. Blizzard is going to do very well to, but on their merits not ad money.

any weekend.........I'm there. No AT boots here, but new boards, dukes, and whatever else I'll need, I'll have. Would love to explore the Whites with you and Austin several times next winter.

I'm in if you need a fourth!

Awesome. We will have to do it up. Cardigan would be an easy hit for you since you have a Ragged pass so you will be right there already several times during the winter. Though if you start doing a lot of touring, you may find yourself getting AT boots sooner than you think It only took my my first season of touring before switching over.

Blizzard ROCKS!! The 8.1 and 7.6 are both sweet. Some of the best stuff out there right now.

The 333 dude is definately getting my business for the next pair of skis. I've got to get moving on that!

I put very little faith into gear guides, I feel like they will always highlight close advertisers. I suppose it works for some but not me.

I agree with you on the 8.7 for out west but I think the 8.1 is better suited for the east coast. Also, still love my Mantra at 96 underfoot. This years graffic isn't much different so sticking with it.

I even stopped by a Barnes & Noble yesterday while I was out running errands to see if they had them on the shelves. Nope

I did see 2 snowboard mags on the shelf at B & N on Saturday, no ski mags though.

nah, Phil's got it right...8.7 for here, its too skinny for the west. 8.1 is a great ski, but too one dimensional compared to the 8.7 IMHO.

Yep, the 8.7 is a great Northeast ski, it was my skinny ski last year. If someone is skiing the Midatlantic, the 8.1 is a fine choice but for New England, the 8.7 would be one of the top skis for me as a "one ski quiver".
