how many of you dont have the years latest and greatest skis?

im still using first gen Fujitives as my only ski
 
Bomber ski fo sho, they kicked my ass when 1st rode them, they were my older bros, I was like 5'9 140 lbs. At 6'1 180 I can ski them finally, they like to go fast.
 
i was riding my first gen. scratch bc until about christmas when i ripped the binding out and ruined them. now im on 2nd gen fujatives.
 
I still ride my old Candides from time to time. I think they're about four years old, but still a lot of fun in the right conditions.
 
yup i was riding the 04-05s ar5s and broke them so i was stuck with the first 03-04 1260s. Now i have this years t-halls thanks to getboards. Using skis with compleat edges is so nice. i had to ski tucks last week 2 on skis with at leat 3 inches of edge missing off each.
 
04-05 Public Enemies...the ones with the gold fleck graphics. I think they are sick as hell....and since they haven't broken yet...no need to shell out more $$
 
dude same i got them at the enbd of last season real cheap, but i rode them just this year and my edge underboot is kinda coming off..still sick ski tho ill prolly ride them next year until they die
 
i found a brand new pair of Dynastar Candides at my shop yesterday - talk about a time warp.
 
my pair of first skis- 03 or 04 line ghetto blasters.

my pair of second skis- orig fujatives

my third pair of skis- orig fujatives (thats right, i bought 2 pairs.)
 
i broke my bc's and at the time had no money so i started using an old pair of pre straight skis. as time went on i fell in love with these skis and they are now my everyday park skis
 
<-- Gold Chronics from '05, and Scratch FS from same year. I dont care about the age, just the condition and performance.
 
how the hell do you get skis to last longer than one season????? I go through a pair of skis about once a month... old skis for me are like, this years stuff.
 
i will most likely always ride 'last season's skis' just because they drop hundreds in price, and the technology updates arent usuall that epic.

ive got a pair of 05-06 scratches and they are damn tasty
 
i was planning on sticking to my 05 fujatives, but the topsheet is starting to tear off, i'm looking into new ones now
