Hi everybody my name's Nick, I'm new to Newschoolers lol and am asking for some help with choosing a pair of skis and bindings for next season. I currently go to college in LA and am an hour from Mountain High, but go to Mammoth, and big bear a lot. I started skiing when I was 3 and did the good 'ol ski school in Alta Utah every season my whole life and I feel that I am fairly advanced, as I can ski every run in Alta. Since I am trying to ski more in socal, I want a pair of skis that are more suited for all mountain/ park skiing (my whole life I've skiied areas more akin to back country) I've never owned a good pair of my own shit because I usually borrow stuff and usually just demo skis when I go to Utah ( because I'm spoiled by the fam haha). I'm trying to learn the ways of the park now that i wanna ski so cal more because the snow is shit, but i'm also a pretty good skiier in areas such as steeps and downhill and I can only afford one pair of skis so I have a dillemna where i want some nice skis for some hardcore steep mogul stuff, but also skis I can use to learn how to ski the terrain parks of socal. I've been looking at the jski allplays and libtech wreckreates, and demoed the Armada Arvti's a couple of weeks ago which were sweet but a bit stiffer than I'd like and a bit wide for socal. I was wondering what you guys think would be a good fit for me ski wise? And as for bindings I was thinking of marker gryphon schizos. I'm 5' 9" 170lbs I do level 3 when I demo skis and what not Thanks!
