One more to come, awaiting binders. Missing the Gotamas that are still in my locker out west.

Hows that not a quiver? When you have $600 for skis and bindings next time, lets see how you do.Quote:

One pair of skis is not exactly an arsenal or a collection. Don't take my comments too seriously, I was just givin ya shit.
relax mang. A quiver means more than 1 pair of skis. Like what pair of skis are you taking out today? ya know?Quote:

Anyway...I've obviously got no complaints! I could ski very happily on those right three sets for a long time I think. Next purchase will be some Denali TTs to replace my well used Denalis. Late season this year, I hope.
And yes, the plunger is definitely part of the quiver. I break that out on the really sick days. Like, camped-out-in-the-bathroom sick.
http://i18.photobucket.com/albums/b1...n/PICT0144.jpg
180 Ultrawaves w/FK 150s - rock
183 Axiom w/900s - pow
179 Seth Pistol w/P10s - all-around? dunno, haven't skied 'em yet.
177 R:ex w/Freerides - touring
174 Stormrider AT w/900s - groomer ski
others are unclaimed basement skis and missing is a pair of 152cm stock Omeglass 64s w/p14... ice ski. dunno if they'll get used but they were pretty much free.
And for true gear whore-ism, here's the stable to go with the quiver:
The all-around-er

The SS commuter
http://i18.photobucket.com/albums/b1...n/PICT0146.jpg
The DH rig (for sale)
http://i18.photobucket.com/albums/b1...PICT0006-1.jpg
The trail bike (for sale)
http://i18.photobucket.com/albums/b1...PICT0002-1.jpg
I could definitely get by with ONLY the R:exs and the Chameleon... but I'm a slut.
Alright, I finally got most of them mounted:

Sanouk with Rossi 140 at +2
Vicious with P12 at +5
Made'n with Rossi 140 at +6
Explosiv 3 with 120 Ti at +1
Fujas (soon to have P12 jib at +6)
:biggrin: :biggrin: :biggrin: :biggrin:
DOPE LUKE!!! Looks awesome. Wonder how long it will stay that way.....
I'm pretty stoked on the way it has shaped up as of right now. Stay tuned, but hopefully it'll stay the way it is for a while. :wink: :nonono2: :rolleyes:
How silly do those Fujas look?! :D
Nice quiver dood
[off topic] you like pretty centered stance, right? Based that all the binding mounts are on the + side. Seems to me that more and more people are mounting skis like vicious, made'ns, gotamas etc. more frontward than recommended...are we seeing a change in style here? easier schmearing, relaxed stance, easier landings, more tail for some switch action etc.? How about the cons? Does that much tail affect pow performande negatively? Or are K2's so soft that it still floats great, despite the long tail?[off topic] Just curious...

Functions of these are still to be decided... B3's are for pretty much anything but moguls and park. Thinking of mounting the 912's on the Enemies (park and pipe specific, 'course) and getting some freerides/naxo's for the blue noodles. Otherwise I'll get some Look Jibs for the Enemies and save the blue noodles for deep days? Depends on the finances...
Anyway, I'll stop talking now.
nice, max. how long are the B3s.
My advice
b3s for slaying
PRs for touring
Publics for jibbin
My sentiments for the exact ideal scenario. The b3's are 178. 168 would have been too short...Quote:

http://home.comcast.net/~m_ostrander/SBskis.JPG
(2000) Salomon XScream Series - 195 - Marker M9.1
(2003) K2 Seth Pistol - 189 - Marker 1200
(2002) Salomon Pocket Rocket - 185 - Freerides
(2004) Volant Spatula - 186 - Marker M1100 (Demo Binding)
(2004) Atomic Tweak - 181 - Marker M51
(2004) Burton Custom - 162 - Burton Mission
Yeah, I'm sure I'll hear something about the all Marker collection. To be completely honest, none of them are set past 9.
There's no Markers on your snowboard. Can you put some on there?Quote:

how d'ya like the titans 8.2?
Ummn, they're 9.2's, and haven't had a change to ski 'em yet. Still the seem to have a nice round flex and torsionally rigid enough for me (as you can see, most of the stix have tele's on 'em, or will get tele's). So I'm pretty excided about 'em, will repost back when I have actually gotten 'em on snow...Quote:

I can find them via google in a few shops in europe but i can't see any in the US yet.
These guys in europe have them.

^ Really nice helmet!
And you don't get cold? I mean, do you wear something under that when you're skiing or is it usually warm enough as it is?
I get really hot when skiing.
At -15 i wear a pair of Mountain hardware mountain biking gloves at 3000+ metres when windy so i'd say its warm enough for me. Other people may disagree.
There is an inner membrane that stops most of the wind whistling through too much.
I have a Gore-tex balaclava that i wear with it when its snowing and coming in sideways.
Its a good helmet for one more reason. The under chin strap is the same type they use on proper motorbike helmets so no chance of it releasing during a fall.
Sadly, I own one too. I have a 185 Duret Free. Mine currently has no bindings on it though; I am using it as a shelf in the garage. I will take a new quiver pic today, though, and add it in there.... :DQuote:

185cm Duret Free monoski (sans bindings - they moved over to the PR's)
210cm K2 TNC Comps w/ ESS VAR bindings

While I was shooting the photo, I shot my new bike license plate. I got this kit at Kmart where you can customize your own. It was like 3 bucks and they had a few left. Anyone want one, I can got get 'em and send it to you....

Dude, mount up the damn monoski already!!
Pretty dumb the bad rap monos get. Besides it looking dumb, it's really fun![/censored]
Yeah, I actually like it. I have a friend that rides one exclusively, so I ride mine most of the times I meet up with him. We usually go to Mary Jane and ride them in the bumps. I pulled my 997's off of it to go on the PR's. I've been on the hunt for some used 997's (i.e. cheap or free) becasue the plates on the Duret are pre-drilled for the 997 hole patern. I also ride the mono occasionally at my local hill when I start getting bored with it. It really flips out the Nebraskans.Quote:

Can anyone direct me to an online pharmacy so I can get some drugs to enhance the quiver? Just curious.... :D
I think you should just post a pic of only your bases...
