I am currently in the market for a new pair of twin tips and I am wondering what to look for in a good pair of skis. Any suggestions would be helpful.

 
Graphics, demensions, and stiffness. You have to like what the ski looks like, it has to be wide enough underfoot for landing but not too wide. Make sure it still rides the pipe well. And if the ski isn't stiff enough for you it will washout on backseaters or just in general. the scratch, or the new teneighty are good choices.

 
everything they said plus one more. check that there not snowblades, after this your in the clear

'Well... You.. Look pretty easy and you might put out, so roll in the cream cheese, roll in the cream cheese!'
 
i just look at the design, just like when i trade magic cards, i like the cool looking ones the best, even if they suck

graphics? are you fuckin kidding? thats the last thing u look for in a ski. get real. who cares what it looks like as long as it skis good.

 
Are you going to take someone serious that has a sesame street icon?

Lighten up. I'm pretty sure he was kidding :)

 
well definately length. then stiffness. then price. then graphics.

Its kinda like pissin on the guy in the stall next to you, just to see if he notices, or pissin on a proper female at a party, or even pissin in some dudes butt in the shower. We've all done it for fun. -lokash

first twin tips, then length, then graphics, then fatness, and then durability, cause in most cases you can get your skis replaced if you break them

 
thats dumb, you dont wanna ski thats not durable coz what if it just gets soft really soon but doesnt snap, then your fucked, plus if it does it's a hassle to get new skis.

 
make sure it makes slalom turns well, then open it up, make big open gs turns, is it stable? quick? what about chatter.

its all about the carve

nice 5 year bump too.
