Hey all,

I just got my first all mountain skis some new 08' Rossi Ghettos. I am not sure about what else to pick up so I can start my slow and hopeful not to painful way into the terrain parks... I am 6'3 and 170lbs.

I was thinking about a pair of look Px12's for bindings and Lange Fluid 100 boots.
I really have no idea if this is a good combo because I have only been skiing for the last 3 seasons. Any help would be awesome.

Thanks, PokemON!

since this is ur first post and all, ill take it easy.

first of all, the lange 100s MIGHTTTTT be a good idea, however the MOST important thing about ur setup, is ur boots.

fuck the skis, fuck the bindings, you could have the dopest skis on earth but if your boot is painful, it wont mean anything.

go to a bootfitter, tell them what kind of skis you ski on, tell them how experienced you are, and DO NOT buy a boot unless it is COMFORTABLE and FITS CORRECTLY.

use the searchbar function at the top of the page to check out what to look for when getting a proper fitting boot.

try and refrain from looking at only one kind of boot, and saying "i wont buy that one, its a terrible color"

Thanks for taking it easy haha,

I have tried on a few pairs and I am a 29.5 and that what comfortable given it was a different boot, do you still recommend to go and try on some-other pairs, I just checked out bootfitter a little bit, and I really dont' care about what kind of boot it is, I just want it to be confortable.

One problem about this I am in college and have no car, being in Storrs, CT far away from everything but cows makes it a little bit of a problem, I'd like to get some before winter break starts so I can head up North.
