Got myself some new ski's

PaulTheHero · 01-03-2009, 11:25 AM

Hello

I thought lets share it with whose intrested in skiing. (or boarding)
I went skiing when i was 14y.o im 24 now.
We went more than 1 week a year, so i got roughly 20 weeks of skiing experience.

We always went to the Alps. Mostly to austria because of the relax atmosfere and very good apres ski. And offcourse the huge connected skiing area's.

Normally i always rented vip-ski's but the rental prices has gone up crazy.
Last year i went 3 weeks and payed a week about 140 euro for a set.

This year i wanted to do it diffrently, i bought my own.

I bought :
Völkl Racetiger RC Titanium.
IPT 11
( some explaning in english about the ski http://www.skiandsnowboardequipment....anium/p/SS1080 )

Nordica Speedmachine 10 shoes.
With heath based foam and customised soles.

Sorry about picture quality my Sony ixus just died on NYE. hehe
Made with my cell fone k850i 5.0 megapix.

Tell me what you think and what you maybe have bought.

They fit super i dont have wide feet so those are perfect!

Yours are a bit stiffer than mine.

nice boards... all i ski is volkl... i have a couple pairs of racetiger world cup race stocks for the racing i do and i love them.. enjoy

GreenThree · 01-04-2009, 05:09 PM

congrats, those look like some nice boards! I have Salomon Scrambler 8s. Have been riding them for two seasons. Thick enough underfoot for the pow, but shaped enough to crank some solid turns. One Ski quiver FTW! I have to hold off whenever new skis come out each year, because, if I dont, I will spend all of my money on new skis! Cheers

GreenThree · 01-04-2009, 05:09 PM

OP: Where do you do most of your riding?

PaulTheHero · 01-05-2009, 12:44 PM

Hahah Greenthree Ones you get used to a set its fine to use it couple of years.
Everyone wants new ski's everyseason but $$$ hehe.
I would be poor also haha.
