    Beer helps with the drilling nerves. Anyone else taking a chance on the Lange 140 pro this year?

    First trip to Utah, what sticks to bring?

    Going to Snowbird, Brighton and Solitude in two weeks. Bringing one or two pairs. My choices are the K108, K96, and Wildcat 116. Not planning on skiing much park, if at all. I think the Wildcats are going for sure, just not sure if i'll want a 96 or 108 as well. Thanks!

    Anyone here have experience with the PB&J?

    Selling my ARV96s to help a buddy out with his first twins/skis. Anyone have experience with the Moment PB&J for park progression mixed with mostly mountain skiing? This would be my low tide/hard pack ski, as I already have a fatter Kartel as well. I just want to make sure it can fill the role...

    Kartel 116 188 Demos, Replace binding with non demo?

    With the season starting up I was putting some thought into replacing the Attack 13 demo bindings on my Kartel 116, 186 with the non demo version. I'm pretty light (154, 5'9), so I'm a bit worried the weight is gonna be killer when I finally break these out for a powder day. Anyone have insight...

    Questions on spring waxing and accumulated road grime in bindings.

    Hey all, put about 25 days on my ARVs this year and i'm wondering if it's time for a base grind. Spring conditions are leaving my bases dry/whitish after 1 day post hand wax. Took a couple days when the snow was colder. Maybe time for a new base or is it just the slush conditions? I'm using a...

    ON3P Kartel 108 edges not sharp from factory, beveled. Normal?

    I'm guessing it's OK and by design, but I've always thought I'd die on icier days with dull edges so I just wanted to check with you guys. My Armadas came pretty damn sharp.

    2 ski quiver for the Rockies and Arizona.

    Hey everyone. I have a pair of ARV96s that I am using for just about everything on my home mountain (Snow Bowl) and they seem to work pretty well for a lot of things. However, i'm looking to round that off with a second pair that fills in the gaps. I don't really want to a dedicated groomer ski...

    Tryolia attack 13 bindings not flush, 2mm gap at screws. Anything to worry about?

    I purchased a pair of skis from an online retailer that they pre-mounted. Two issues. 1, they started a drill hole in the wrong place (shallow, i'm told it's above the core) and had to re-drill it next to that hole. 2. there is a 2ishmm gap at the rear-binding/screws between the binding and...

    ARMADA ARV 96 length suggestion

    170 vs 177? 155lbs, 5'10. Intermediate skiier, not the most aggressive but working on getting there. I skii 75/25 Park mountain, learning how to not look like a noob in the park. My current set of skiis are 172cm Rossi 889hds. Thanks for your input!

    First set of skis, issues with binding mount. Wanted to see what you thought.

    Hey everyone Gear: Warden 11's, Rossi 88 skis. Both bindings (the upper screws on the tops of the rear bindings) came loose on the mountain on the first time out. Had to tighten them after 1 day. Additionally, the white and black spacer or mounting plate? Has a gap on one of the skiis and is...
