Haven't seen a new thread yet this year and people's quivers change every year.


I'm pretty damn stoked on my setup this year. Not a single ski under 95 in the waist. I'm probably selling the Guns to my friend so he can get into touring though so it'll be not a single ski under 101 in the waist. Yeah, I like 'em fat.

Left to Right: 164 OG 4frnt CRJ w/Deadbolts> 164 Salomon Guns w/NAXOs > 172 Moment PB&J w/Peak 12's > 174 Moment Bibby w/ Guardians

Post up your quiver you'll be riding this year and get stoked for ski season to get rolling.

The official one is from 2011 and is still going.

However, I must say I really dig your quiver

I actually looked for that one, but regardless, 2011 is not 13/14. People break skis, sell skis, get new ones, and some keep them too.

How do you like the Bibbys? What's the reason for not going a size or two up?

Hahaha.

1. I literally just got the Bibbys mounted today so I can't answer that question beyond the fact that they look like they'll slay dragons and crazy falcon-like creatures.

2. Because I'm 24 years old but never grew past 5'2". They're the longest skis I've owned.

I actually think ski gabber is a much better place for a thread like this than gear talk just because not all members use GT.

I will post my quiver once i get everything all mounted up.

I have a pair of 2012 halos as my primary ski, and some 2011 afterbangs that I use as shit skis.

As a midwest skier, my shit skis get more use than my good skis... I ski more on my setup than I do at a resort because winters are so short here.

Maybe it's because I don't ski park, but I wouldn't ride these simply due to the graphics.

The graphic is cosmetic. Spray paint it or put stickers on it if you like the actual ski but not the graphic.
