Most of the time, I'm skiing very fast. I like to rip and shred. In the midwest, I ski parks and rails. I like doing basic tricks (3's, 5's, etc), but doing them forward and backward, and doing them as clean as possible. If I'm skiing out west, I like it steep and deep. Carving bowls, jumping cliffs (10-30ft so far), finding jumps, blasting through trees, and needing a snorkel is what I'm doing if I'm skiing in the mountains.

Big-ass mountain (Jackson Hole), 1-2 good (ripping) friends, 2 feet of fresh, bluebird skies, and a backpack full of cameras, sandwiches, and provisions.

The last 3 years I have been skiing 02/03 Line Skogen Sprangs w Marker bindings in park and 03/04 K2 PE's with Look P12s for all mountain. I have Dalbello boots, and some Salomon and old Kerma poles. I just picked up a pair of 05/06 K2 Seth Pistols, and will review that ski when I get them on snow.

Line and K2 have always treated me right, and Dalbello are the most comfortable boots I've ridden.
