Liberty Skis - LTE

I have decided that the best park ski for this winter is the Liberty LTE , because it is extremely light (7 pounds - Bambo, super flexy) and it is highly reviewed.

My questions are when will the 2011 Liberty Skis be availible for purchase because I would like to purchase these before college so i don't get distracted looking at skis.

Also are they the same model from last year. I looked at the SIA pics for Liberty and the model looks exactly the same for this years model. Did they change anything?

+K for anyone who can answer these questions and ++++++K for anyone who can offer a review of these skis if you own them.

Also would like to know what would be a good light binding to get that is also stable and won't break after a couple days. The din setting doesn't really matter.

It's the same graphic and my ski shop owner told me that they added more pop to them but I'm pretty sure it's bullshit and it's the same skis. A good park binding would probably be an fks or griffons altough some people claim they suck they were more durable than my pivots to me!

He did, he said that in the OP.

All their new stuff is online on their website, and the LTE isn't changed this year (including the graphic). Next years stuff wont be available till the fall...however, if you search around, you could probably find a sick deal on this years LTEs, since they didn't change there's no difference.

To be honest, I had this before, but didn't want to give it too you cause I want to buy them, but I wont be until mid-season, so...Here:

Those are the cheapest I've found, and probably the cheapest you can get them for (getting cheap skis from less well known companies like Liberty, Amplid, ect, is very difficult cause they have such a low inventory that they can't really afford to sell them for very cheap - it's the same way with Full Tilt, that's why their boots are always "so expensive", yet, they always seem to sell out of them, huh).

Wait... By LTE isn't changed this year, do you mean the upcoming 10/11 season, or the season that just passed? Cause you said that next year's stuff won't be available till fall, but you also said that it's already on the site. Just wondering, because I'm also looking into some LTEs but if they haven't changed at all for the 10/11 season, I might as well just buy some last year's skis.

yeah they are exactly the same the only thing that has changed form liberty is the graphic and name change of the hazmats, and the graphic change of the genome so yes the lte's are the same

This upcoming season (10/11) the ski and graphic will be the same as last years (09/10), Liberty updated their site with all the new skis for next year (10/11) but they're not for sale yet. There will basically be a fresh batch of the same ski made for this upcoming season and put on sale for next season in the fall.

so the link posted is directing you too the 09/10 LTE ski, and the new skis for the 10/11 season are just like last years.

So it would be wise to purchase the ones on the link?

Okay this may not help but the LTE is essentially a mix of the old hazmat and Phil Larose Pro and i loved both of those and i did demo the LTE for a few runs and it seemed extremely fun really easy to set spins on rails didnt hit any jumps unfortunately
