The biggest feet I've fitted was a guy who wore size 16 (US) shoes but I ended up fitting him in a 32 (14 US). Most guys wear their shoes too big. Go to a good shop and let them take care of you.

Inside your boots (SBS) is better because then you don't have to put your skis on the right feet. Planing the sole is another way but it wears down. I had my old ones done and didn't notice any difference but all I needed was 0.5 degree correction in one foot.

Fluid is wide, Krypton is narrow.

Find a shop that has SBS equipment. That's the best way for canting. http://www.footfoundation.com/

Yeah you can cut one of the three off and it becomes the standard. I've been thinking of doing that to mine, and I'm 6'4/80kg. So at your weight the standard will be fine.

Sync cables and Nikon SB-24, SB-26, SB-28 or SB-80.

Don't waste your money on cheap eBay triggers! Seriously, they'll cause you so much stress. I ignored this advice and within a month I had sold them and bought PocketWizards. Get Nikon SB-24/26/28/80 or Vivitar 285's for about $80 apiece and save for PWs. If you can't afford PWs right away...

A lot of our demos are seconds, mostly cometic blemishes.

You're using it off camera. It doesn't matter. Nikon or Vivitar.

http://strobist.blogspot.com/2006/03/lighting-101.html Watch the video then read the sections. I use Nikon SB's but lots of guys use Vivitar 285's. Save up for PocketWizards, don't bother with cheap triggers, trust me, use sync cables until you've saved up.

How big are you going to be printing? If the answer is anything less than 15x10" then get a used D70.

I skied the Fujas and wasn't impressed at all. Pretty average, not that lively. If you like K2 you might like it. I only skied the Prophet 90 but from what I've read the 100 is similar but just a tad softer. The 90 was incredible all round. Carved unreal on the groomed, switch was alright...

Ask your shop staff! Something soft and durable is what you need.

My carbon poles have lasted literally 10 times longer than any metal ones I've used, and counting.

There are far better park skis, far better fat skis, far better carving skis but the Punisher is pretty good as a do-it-all ski. Plus is comes in a 191.

Just get some merino pants to go under.

GS skis. Take your pick. Go around a few race shops and see what they can sell you cheap.

Tell them 325mm and sign a waiver. It might be 2mm either way but you can adjust them if need be.

This is a very good way to lose discount privileges for all your staff in the future. Hooking up friends by buying things that you could justify are for yourself is one thing but broadcasting it online is stupid. Just be careful.
