Title says it all, how often do you (or your parents) open up the piggy bank to buy some new planks?

Once every other year or once a year if I'm lucky for me.

i pretty much ride my skis until i wreck them, my enemys lasted me 2 seasons so i got volkls a few weeks ago and use the enemys for urban or shitty parks, but working in a shop and getting everything at cost i see myself getting new skis more often now

haha, well, i try to use the warranty system to my advantage so i dont need to buy new ones. but i buy new park skis if i break my pair and warranty is a no go. im keeping my pow skis for as long as they last, 3 years so far.

Way too often. But then again, I sell my old ones or hook my friends up, so it really isn't that bad.
