dear boys in the hood,

I'm looking to buy Line future spins or after bangs or traveling circus (if i can find them), also new boots and bindings. Should I buy them now or wait until the whistler turkey sale for better price?

Don't get boots at the Turkey sale.

Go into a good bootfitter and get him or her to put you in the proper boot. There's a good chnce they will be on sale right now. With the money you can save, have them make up some footbeds for you as well.

Also, I prefer spring/summer closeouts to fall sales. The deals are better on new equipment.
