How many pairs of skis is it healthy to have?

ive got around 20 pairs. 3 that i actually use. i have a hard time throwing away old planks cause of the memories i have on them. each time i look at them, it reminds of what i was learning at the time and where ive been skiing on them.

i always tell myself ill build one of those ski chairs but never get around to it.
 
I have 3 pairs with bindings mounted atm, one pair of them is absolutely trashed tho so wouldn't really count them.

I'm definitely on the light side, I know people with 5+ usable pairs.

Of course I have a stack of old skis that are done skiing but I don't want to throw them away.

More the merrier! I have had many through the years, held on to the ones that have had some sort of sedimental value and given others away to friends.

I definitely have all my old pairs waiting to be used as fence boards. Everytime I find a good deal on a used pair, I snag then. I currently have 3 mounted pairs but I’m waiting on new bindings and quiver killers for a stack of used skis that are for the most part new to me.

I’ve definitely been “retiring” pairs that I like before they get too thrashed.
 
I have 3 pairs that I use regularly, and 5 or 6 pairs of old skis that have sentimental value kicking around which are too thrashed to use much. I have some arts and crafts ideas for them.

I'll get 2 more pairs this year: New park skis and a pair to throw tele bindings on.
 
I ski my skis until they are snapped or physically cant be used anymore. Therefore one pair at a time
 
3 categories to be filled

1. Park and jibbing

2. Powder and wide

3. Thrasher beater and street

It all really depends on ur healthy bank account and how much you ski
