Good luck, tell your coach to blow off, you are going to have to get 2 pairs of skis, sorry bro

I will gladly trade in my skis for purple snowlerblades the day somebody releases a racing twin tip.

ok, you sound like ure from my area, cuz we were forced to do the same things. Tell em to blow off, like the dude said, or just don't ride twin-tips. my pair of 9.18's are actually pretty sick in the park, they are light, semi-twinned, and you can get pretty good pop, also stable as a stiff donkey.

I have a pair of 2002 Rossignol Bandit X's that are pretty good. They hold a great edge on ice, are pretty quick, and they are pretty decent in the park. The tail is 17mm, so you can ride fakie as long as there is no powder. Salomon crossmax 10's are supposed to be good to.

The line Darkside is a racing twin tip. It's designed for high speeds and it's decent in the park, and it comes in long lengths.



We have an old saying down on the bayou....Blehhhhh!!!

it kinda isn't a twin-tip, but anything semi twin tip will do fine, look at the 720's they aren't real twin-tips, but people still use em in the park.(well they used to be)

Look at the Rossi Bandits, either x or xx. They're awsome skiis for freeriding and seem like they would be okay for racing, plus they've got a little tail for fakie riding.



Damn straight things are happenin' in the midwest!

Markers don't suck!

How can your coach 'ban' twintips..? Tell him you cant afford two pairs of skis, and to fuck off... that's the dumbest shit I have EVER seen.. and if its a school team, I am pretty sure they can't dictate what kind of equipment you can use.

Being Irish, I guess I should resent the Notre Dame nickname 'The Fighting Irish.' After all, how long do you think nicknames like 'The Bargaining Jews' or 'The Murdering Italians' would last? Only the Ironic Irish could be so naively honset. I get the feeling that Notre Dame came real close to naming itself 'The Fuckin Drunken, Thick-Skulled, Brawling, Short-Dicked Irish'
