It's that time of year to start seriously thinking of ski season (as if we haven't been all summer) again and plan our new equipment purchases. What is everyone planning on getting this year? I bought a new jacket, gloves, and boot heaters. I am planning on being warm. Anyone else?

picked up new skiis (atomics gs9 and race 6) for the kids and boots and poles for the older (9) one. I Hit up Alpine traders in west dover for thier previous year lease returns. boots are $45, skiis with bindings $75 and poles $5. Otherwise I am probably stay with what I have.

Technica "Diablo Fire" Ski Boots, fitted for my footbeds and canting. All set with everything else.

The freedom of being able to buy gear without putting your kids needs first is very liberating...

I picked up some Fischer World Cup Slaloms and some Lange Comp 120s. I can't wait to clip in. I'm still looking for bindings though, I plan on getting Markers. I also go a nice Marker coat on sale. THINK SNOW :)

I'm looking to score a pair of K2 Dawn Patrol telemark grrl skis and a pair of G3 Roxy bindings.

I too am in the market for a pair of Roxy's... for my girlfriend of course. Let me know of any good deals.

Assuming that Skiershop ever gets back to me :blink: , I will be on a new pair of Head IM75's with Railflex bindings this season. Might also get some new boots. As much as I hate to admit it, I will need no googles.

The GF will be on her 2003-2004 Atomic C6 Skis and new Lange Boots. She also has a new helmet and pants. We got her geared up last season. She WON the skis from the Ride and Ski New England Card--they are great folks!

I may look into new poles. I have a decent pair of Rossi poles, but I'd really like a pair of composite poles. I got new skis last year(Volkl) and new boots(Technica) that I haven't skied in yet in the spring so all I really need this year is the smaller stuff. I could also use a new gear bag (for boots, gloves, ski pants, etc.).
