Hey so me and a couple of friends have been wanting to hit up Montreal or anywhere in Quebec province for a while now to ski like maniacs and then party with the drinking age since we're all under 21. The problem is where to go and finding a good cheap place to stay. I've heard good things about...

Oh, and I talked to the shop and they're cool with it if I don't end up buying from them, so I'm not being a dick.

I got fitted for some new boots and the shop is selling the 08 model for $400 (haggled down). I just found the women's 07 model of the same boots for $160. How much of a difference is it if I get the women's model? (it says it has a low cuff, and fit and flex characteristics are tuned to match a...

Never mind, read page 2.

How'd he land, head straight down?

Bump, anyone have any more ideas? Thanks for the help.

I already have crap boots, so if I don't get decent ones at least, I'll just keep these. Am I going to risk hurting myself more with bad boots, though? If that's true, I'll scrape up the cash for sure. Is it cheaper to get boots this time of year and not winter?

I got the Line Skogens, thanks for helping, everyone.

Oh, and skiian, I might be interested.

Oh boy, now I have a chance to get Line Skogen Pros with Rossi Scratch bindings for $150, has anyone tried those or heard anything about them? Thanks for the help.

Oh, and I forgot to mention that I have to decide soon, since I'm not the only one looking at the Karmas.

Like the title says, I need new skis for this season, and if I get new ones, I'll probably go for the Dynastars for ~$200 no bindings. (I'm looking for a ski that's good everywhere, but especially in the park) I also have the option of getting a pair of lightly used Karmas for $250, also no...
