Well I'm (over)spent.
In 2002 I got rid of my old 205cm skinnies and bought my first pair of "fat shaped skis," the 186cm Fischer All Mountain X, at 78mm underfoot.
It was revolutionary. I quickly moved up to the 10.EX (84mm), the AK Enemy (90mm), and eventually the Teledaddy (99mm).
6 years later, and my smallest ski is 84mm underfoot. It's a remarkable time to be a (powder) skier (read: fanatic).
Can't afford anything else for many years to come, but I have my bases more than covered now.
Time to love them all to death.

I would go further and say everything non-tele.;) I wouldn't sleep. As it is I can't goto bed without fondling my boards.Quote:

Nice. I've got a pretty similiar setup: Prophet 100 (~Gotama); AK Enemy (w/ Naxo21); and 195 Praxis (still waiting).
I also kinda hate the Iron Maiden-inspired graphics of the Enemies.

I've never heard of this Duck mounting. What? and Why?
Duckstance... Original Sanouks had it.Quote:

Fischer does this with their Soma boots.

The 179 secret weapons in the bottom picture have got a new look to them. There are also some 181 Anti-Pistes and 179 Piste Pipes that have recently been added to the family.

Are those graphics of your own design? They look exceedingly nice. If they're not next year's graphics they should be!Quote:

I am lobbying hard for K2 to make a graphic like this. We shall see...
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Is it too cheesy to say that the Van Halen graphics are what Sallie should have used for the "Rocker"? Anyhow, any ski with that graphic is going to get some attention and appeal to a certain "demographic", and most of us in that category probably have VH CD's in the collection and disposable income for extra ski gear...WIN-WIN!
Sick, Hop! Hope the yuckety-yuks at K2 listen to your suggestion...
I knew that seemed familiar.Quote:

I need to find and mount some bindings for the Mantra's this week. P40's are super old and I don't ski them any more.
Just a suggestion, but why not take the bindings off the P40's and throw them on the Mantras?Quote:
