Pepsi vs Coke: It doesn't matter which ski you use.

I don't really find much difference between skis, I hardly believe that if I buy Troublemakers or Public Enemies or Armadas that my skiing is going be better or worse. When you are good you are good, no matter what skis you ride. If you suck, you will suck on K2s, Dynastars, Armadas, Lines, Solomons or anyother ski, it makes no difference in the grand scheme of things.
I've ridden ultra soft and light Line skis, super stiff and heavy Heads, Armadas and K2s too. The only difference I really found was the mounting position. I like my skis center mounted. As far as the rest, it didn't make much difference between each ski, even though some were VERY different from each other. Once you start skiing, you will forget which ski you even have on until you look down.

I'm probably better on my super old like.. 1970s dynastar fiberglass skis than on my 1260s... but the dynastars lack stuff like... back tip... and... width... and... shapeage.......

so yeah, i use my 1260s.

no hes saying for all you little kids to stop making posts about which ski is better because basically its not going to make you any better of a skier, if you suck youre going to suck on pe's seth pistols armadas or lines, and if youre a good skier it doesnt matter you can ski on anythin

it takes 27 glasses of water to level out the pH in your blood after just one can of coke.

and i gotta agree, the skis dont make that much of a difference in your skill level at all.

i find that turn radius makes a differences, i demoed the 1080's and the turned quickly, then went on the scratch fs and they were kinda slow. i went with the scratch fs cause i don't want my skis to delaminate, but yeah u'll eventualy get used to a different ski after a while

root beer.

i think the lengh of a ski has a big effect. 165s are going to be a lot easier to use than 210s.

I think you've got a point to a certain extent but skis do make a difference sometimes. I mean if you can throw a bio 7, I'm sure you could do it whether your're on line snowblades or Seth Pistols. I do think that skis can help you be at the top of your game or help you progress. Everyone is different and what works for one person may not work for the other. I'm personally glad that I have a choice.

dspin7x nailed it on the head.
I should mention that all the skis I've ever used have been within 3cm of each other in length, so that hasn't been an issue. Turn radius feels different for about 10 minutes, then you forget all about it.

i ride 1260's and i find nothing wrong with em, i have demoed a couple other skis and the only reason i would switch is to go a bit stiffer so i have i bit more control at higher speed, the 1260's arn't too bad for it, but they are made pretty much as a park ski .

I agree with cko. while it doesnt make a big difference, if you have a choice, buy a ski a ski that you fits you the best.

skis do make a difference, though it may only be a psychological difference. If you think ski brand X will make you better then it will. If you think you ski better with a blue sock, and a red sock on each foot, then it helps. though I totally understand what you guys are saying about teh ability of the skis to make you better.

if it's a center mounted (or close to) equal tipped ski...I'd never tell the difference...but ther was a big difference when I went from enemys to scratches...totally different, I could ski switch and spin quicker, but that was about it...I have a friend that always bitches about responsive ness and 'these skis are too stiff or too flexy' but I couldn't tell the difference
Thank you for reading my post,
