I always hear people talking about how if you dont have the right ski then you wont be able to ski right, but then i hear other people argue that if you are a good skier every ski will be fine. In my case i just bought a new type of ski that i have never really tried... i just wanted to hear some people perspectives on that.

This isn't an MMORPG, r-tard. Skill greatly trumps what gear you have.

A good skier will be able to make any ski do what they want it to do. Obviously there are limitations, but skill > equipment.

i heard a good one a while back stating the difference between the spk pro boot and spk kaos boot. it went a little something like this, "obviously if you buy the spk pro you will achieve pro-like status. if you use spk kaos boots, you will become a kaotic newb full of kaos." - landonn
