I've finally decided what i'm going to do when i get money. i don't really like it, but it's probably the best choice. for the past few months i have been wanting to buy a camera a surfboard and skis, but i knew i could only buy one. i came to the conclusion today that surfboard is gonna be the way to go. since i only get to ski about 2 days a year, (seriously the most i've skied is 4 days like 3 years ago) and i would be able to surf easily more than 3 days a week from late february to late november, a surfboard would be the better choice. plus, i want to go to college somewhere out west, so if i bought skis for here on the east coast, i'd prob have to get new ones in two years anyway. i really wish i could get more days on the snow, but for now it looks like it's rentals/demos until i go to college. it's gonna be hard to resist some deals that go down, but i'll have to fight the urge and wait two more years.
although the main reason i came to this site was to learn about "newschool"skiing and find some used gear, i'll still stay on and browse around. after all i've been hooked since the day i've joined. in a way i feel like i'm leaving the community by not getting skis, and not being able to share my on snow experiences, but hopefully if all goes well, i'll make up for all these years lost not skiing when im out west in college.
no need to reply or anything, just thought i'd let everyone know what a tough decision i had to make
