7 NTN'd skis! Woah, I thought I was cool with 4 pairs last year... : )

I'm always on pins & leathers in the woods, so with the Guides and the Epochs, it's really what gives me the best sensations. I use the Tua Nitrogens on leathers too, but only on harder stuff, mostly in the spring...

When I feel plastic, I'm on the TX Comps with the Rossi 9S almost all the time... Best combination for carving. I really like the 12m radius. But at 165cm, they are way too short for me... I would use my GS skis more often if only we could have a FIS approved race trail here... :(

Our humble 'quiver':

Tattoo 175 & Mosquito 180 by Movement, TST 192 by Armada - I've skied them all, but she's yet to ski TST, so cross-reviews are pending - from perspective of both genders :-)
I like all kinds of snow. The only poor snow I know of is ice. That better be climbed.

I like those old K2's in the first pic..Used to slap
some 3pin/cables on them and go ski the lifts.. 85-65-75..
10 bux at St. Vinney's..
Most resort skiing I am doing with Mantras this year..
not the best in the bumps but other than that, great skis..
For a light ride at the resorts, K2 backups and Synergys or
T4's..or T2 Eco's..Rambling, we use Alpina Lite and Xterrains..
For Xc, we use Xc gear :lol: :lol:
