get the sickest goggles that you find with the sickest lenses, some spk's, some sweeet poles that will never break (carbon) and some extra lenses or maybe a beanie or a helmet with audio.

my sister had a pass that went to a handful of mountains and you got like 10 days at vail too. I think it went to the other resorts owned by vail, like breck and junk. and if i remmeber correctly that was like $200 for her. maybe things have changed though that was like 3 or 4 years ago. I'll ask her what it was called though.

dude with all that money just go to your coolest local shop and be like yo I want a sick ass set up cuz I'm movin to colorado! My vote would be ARVs if you wanna do pow and park, or gotamas if you just wanna shred out of the park. then whatever snazzy bindings catch your eye, although I've always been a fan of look/rossi, and then tell them you want the dopest boot for whatever kinda skiing you like to do, try them on, and buy the super comfy one. make sure you get a suit and gogs that match your skis perfectly though, you dont wanna look like a gayper!

yea. get like 2 pairs of 155s or something. just keep one hidden away. they are the best bindings ever made, they ride soooo much better than your normal pivot or salomon.

I forget, I didn't own them long enough to have the name imprinted in my mind.  I've only seen one set of carbon poles last more than a week;  they were some green ones that I'm forgetting the name of right now.
