K so i want to know what all of you guys ride. Why you ride it and what is good about it. So I can further look into what kind of riders use what skis and so on.

ex- on my lines i used this season (obviously not my favorite ski, but something like this.)

Line Invader 05

I rode the Line Invaders they worked great in the park lot for jibbing and messing around on cat tracks while doing butters. but the de-lam get pretty bad sometimes and chips ALOT.

(so pretty much i just want this thread to be a big ski review page)
 
doubt this will work, but...

08 Line Sir Francis Bacon

I love this ski. If you like to have fun when you ride, and generally have a surfy, carvy, jibby feel to your skiing, this is the ski for you. Soft flex, great in trees and in pow. Amazing switch. Not for charging, but can still hold speed reasonably well.
 
07 fujatives

their soft

wide enough for powder unlike most people think

tons of pop

all around very fun
 
Line Invader- pure park ski, buttery, good times...even held an edge on groomers!

Salomon Gun- most fun ski ever, very soft, carveable, kills it in the deep stuff, not half bad switch (for lighter/smaller skiers), bigger skiers will find it too soft

Oakley Osama Pro Model- best ski ive ever ridden, super soft due to the isocell-sand core technology, kills it in the deep and steep and also sends you floating through the air in the park...a must have one ski quiver ski
 
Head Mad Trixx had the best graphic of all time.

As for best all around ski, I love the Maden Ak. But I like fatties, so there you go. If you can handle it, its amazing.
 
Last season I was on Nordica Blowers.

-Wide

-Stiff

-Excelled in powder

-still managable on groomers and park (yikes)

Fun, definatly stoked for another season on them.

I really loved them to jibb they were a lot of fun but it delaminated(?) very easily

but overall damm I loved these skis
 
4frnt MSP's

I really liked the MSP's, they are a pretty good all-mountain ski, nice for jibbing and stuff, but also surprisingly good for backcountry and pow days. It has the perfect balance, not too stiff, but not too noodly. You can go as fast as you want and they wont buckle or anything, but also noodly enough to butter and hit up some bumps.

The only downside is that the top sheet got really really destroyed after one season. I sent them back to 4frnt and they hooked me up with a new pair.

4frnt is a great company, just starting up, but great skis and great people who run the company. Very good customer service. I would recommend these skis to anybody, whether you ski east coast or west.
 
05-06 rossignol scratch fs sprayers
