What’s everyone’s end of season purchase or plan on purchasing for this upcoming season?

I'm looking at picking up some new ARV 112s

That would be dope man, hope you get that car bro! But new skis are always dope!
 
I bought a Lib-tech Orca for 200 bucks that somome returned to REI because there was a "mark" on the base.

Vro on jet. Jokes aside I'm trying to find someone who wants to trade some 184 sender free 110's for 191. I goofed up sizing.

Just got some moment countach on the end of season sale.

Need to find some pivot sender deals for them.

Gonna throw some cast as well on them and the ghost trains once the kits come back in stock.
 
Skiing gear isn't just about warm clothing and skis; communication equipment is equally important. I recommend checking out the CAME-TV Nano Portable Intercom Pod, designed for skiers with features like stable signal, noise reduction, and hands-free operation. Especially in noisy and expansive ski environments, real-time communication is crucial.
 
Absolutely pumped to pick up these m 90’s in factory finds. Went not-pivots for the first time in a long time, and excited to convince myself I feel the difference

Copped a pair of Forza Pivot 2.0s for 400$. Kind of overpaid but wanted the colorway.

Waiting for Armada to release their 2025 skis to buy a pair of arv 94s, but can still be convinced to buy a different daily driver.

Worth it, that color way is bad ass. Also you can get the 2024 arv 94 on sale right now for much cheaper. There was no change for 2025 besides graphics

I thought changed the base construction material this season, but tbh I’d buy the 2025 skis for the graphics alone!
 
They didn’t change anything on the ARV 94. It has Always been poplar.

The arv 100 is the one that changed from caruba to poplar for 2025. Apparently the caruba in the ARV 100 had serious durability issues and it was so bad that Armada forced/paid Newschoolers to delete their review of the ARV 100 until next season when they release the updated version

Vro on boat skis
 
building the tour setup. Have nomad 105 lites, few model year old new marker kingpins I got for $160, and bmsp skins. still need tour boots, avy stuff, and a day pack
 
Sitting on a pair of 2023 BDogs :) that I bought on closeout last summer. Tested once this winter and loved them. Shape is so fun!

Retired my 2019 ARV 96 (ween graphic!) this spring. So far, my favorite skis ever!
 
trying to find more fd wear stuff, super rare to find, but i have a jacket thats ten years old, and it looks far better than any other jacket I've seen/ used in modern times, has way more pockets and features, and better overall functionality. need new snowpants mostly, as mine rn look like mogul pants.
 
Trying to scoop some of the armada white walker118’s with the dark red/black top sheet with some white pivots. Need to make some extra cash somewhere this summer to justify that purchase
 
Picked up Oblivion 102's and Studio 1's for cheap the past few weeks. Will probably grab the ARV112's to try for next season too.

Next year's improved ARV100 is also elite
 
I picked up a pair of Pescados with Duke bindings both 50% off. Now I need to find some skins and touring boots to go with them.

These will replace my 2009 EP Pros with first-gen Duke bindings which are getting a bit long in the tooth.

Smart. You already have some pivots?

Yeah, Just because pivots look better. My skis were too beautiful to ruin them with ugly dukes.

I have had zero problems with my dukes, great binding.
 
changing bindings just for aesthetics purposes is wild

It's fucking stupid, probably the most NS thing to do.

Those skis never had the dukes though, dukes were on my old skis and I could have just switched those to my newer skis. They have had pivots from the start, I just ran out of money to buy cast at the same time:D.

But It didn't really matter because I didn't get to do any touring this season.
 
Can't find the good deals thread but this one seems to be popping so I'll post it here. Kendall goodman is selling some stuff. Local pickup in Utah he says. Here are some notable items.
