    Where to buy Faction skis?

    I am really drawn to small ski companies and was really looking at getting a pair of Faction 3Zero's as a new ride. Anyone know where to buy these things at? How many pairs do these guys like Faction, bluehouse, or Moment press out a year anyways?

    Im def. going to ski them a couple more times. Midsole i believe is -6 from center. It wasnt my choice completly, she knows i usually mount foward for better switch skiing and shit, and the shop rat suggested them to her. im pretty happy with where they are, maybe a +2 or 3 woulda been better...

    Camera protection while skiing?

    I skied with my new D90 this week in a lowpro backpack and it was alright, i was worried a lil but everything was fine. They make Camera Armor that i hear is pretty tough stuff. Might be worth looking into.

    Lift operation footwear

    I would say sorels, i dont know how cold it gets down there though. Ive worn my Military issue bunny boots outside at temps of -10 to -50 for two to three weeks straight and have never had cold feet yet. They dont look very steezy but they work and are hella cheaper than a good set of sorrels...

    Feeler: 179 K2 kung-fujas (brand new)

    Id consider lowering the price, even though they are new and if you were local itd be a killer steal, but 525 plus the 30 shipping is only good if every shop in your town is sold out. Not trying to be a dick but every REI in america has these for 549.

    Kung fujas mounting point

    I believe "recomended" mounting point is +4.5 which is like 2.5 back from center. Id go with that, it seems like it would ride how id want it to for BC and All mountain stuff.

    Rossignol Scratch BC wrs 2007????????

    You can pick up last years Scratch Brigades from a lot of places for 359 or less, and they are the same ski, also same as this years S5. I think last years top sheet and base were by far the sickest. I think they are an awesome ski, plenty of pop front and back but real stiff, so they are very...
