    Volkl Chopsticks?

    Little guy, big skis

    thanks all for the advise, especially dave. probably should should have included that i have spent the last two seasons on 168 gottamas, but then took out a pair of 180 seths, and saw how much better they floated, and wondered how big i could go for a powder only set of planks.

    How to fill the gaping hole in a man's quiver left by the vacant Seth??

    why is nobody mentioning the gottamas? they were on his list, and i just ordered a pair, but they might be sold out by now. they are alot like the prophet 100s except fatter and sweeter. they are in my opinion the best one ski quiver out there (p100s in at #2). Just thought you should not rule...
