Its a pretty small quiver, but I think I got my bases pretty well covered.

From L to R
185 Armada ARVs Pretty much the rock ski, but I also take em out when the conditions are horrid enough I don't want to have to handle my bigger skis
AK Rocket Swallowtail Labs These are my hardpack skis, also my touring skis with trekkers
Armada ANTs Softer Hardpack ski.
EHP 193s Surfy Pow Day ski
I think I've about every niche filled. Now all I need is a high speed charging pow day ski (Fischer Duke perhaps?:fm: ) a peak bagging AT setup, and a pow slaying AT setup and I'll be set.
where did you drill the ARV?
They've got demo bindings on em, so I move em around depending what I'm doing. For the days when I'm gapering my way through trying to do 360s, I have em center mounted. I've found the sweet spot for just normal skiing them to be about 2cm back from the line.Quote:

174 K2 Dawn Patrols w/850s
180 Volkl T-Rocks w/Naxo 01s
151 K2 Mix w/Rides
Mine:

185 Head Evolution w/757s
40ish Kneissel Bigfoots
161 Ride Timeless w/Drakes
Hopefully it won't be a dynamic quiver like last year. I could see giving away the 9x's and keeping the ZRSs and possibly adding something gimungus and cool that I don't even know about yet for next year.
you must let me know how you feel about the 193 flex 3 surreals mounted alpine, I have comforts on mine right now, but thinking about putting somthing a bit more bomber on them.
Had TLTs on them. Didn't like the setup for backcountry pow. The skis were too stiff for my liking for soft, untracked snow hence the Soft Bros with comforts which are way more versatile. I think if they were softer, they would be a perfect Dynafit/bc rig-light and a versatile shape. They are so light they are great to tour on though. As far as Dynafit vs other touring bindings, I would go Dynafit on these.Quote:

If you need these test drove tomorrow I just might be able to help you. :D :D :DQuote:

One thing you could try, would be both adding heat and then bending the ski for some rocker (kind of like D.Sanders did with his new Big Daddies)...
Still better option for such skis, would be to buy one of those dirt cheap RD Helidogs /Coyoties (sp?) and bend 'em, as they actually have metal on 'em...
could probably do it with some old explosivs too.Quote:

True, on both points.Quote:

And if you're mankin yer own skis, well then the camber is really easy to produce... even on a wood + glassfiber ski (a'la Bro).
Dude, you win. The monoski and bigfoots put you over the top.Quote:

Finally got them all together:

188 stiff Bros; 977 11-17
Nordica Dobie GSR and SLR, 186 and 165 respectively. Piston Plates and everyone's favorite 14.0 binders.
Rossi carbon gs poles. I love the feel of these for some unknown reason.
the small but growing quiver:

180 Pow + w/ Salomon Z12s
190 Chubbs (older ones w/ zebra base, no camber) w/ FR

Cool to see the Kastle RX12s. I used to have two pairs of those. What a stable ride. There are some days that I wish I still had them.Quote:

185 Iggy FFGS 235-240RA -PX12
190 Gots -P12
186 Praxis -P12
Is that the new praxis topsheet?
It's this years topsheet which will available next year as well. Even better looking in person. The other two I think are still undecided. Maybe black and one other?? I have an order in for 195's so the 185's may be up for grabs next season.
i hope it's better looking in person, cause it looks pretty shitty (literally). sick quiver though.
