What's in your garage

Hi everyone, just finished sorting out my summer prep for toys to go back in the cupboard til next winter and thought I'd see what everyone else has in their toy box :-) Left to right: J Skis Masterblaster 187cm with Look Pivot 18, Armada ARV96 184cm waiting for new Look Pivot 14s to be mounted for next year, and finally Volkl Revolt 87 in 185cm with STH2 WTR13

I don't have a garage, although I do have a tiny bedroom with all my ski crap crammed into it, I've got 188cm revolt 104's with attack 13's on them, a pair of 80's racing skis for reasons I honestly don't know, shitty all mountain skis I haven't used for 4 years now, and assorted hoodies, coats, trousers, helmets and goggles lying around. (I'm something of a new gear addict.)
 
Regular garage stuff along with the car, bikes, lawnmower, etc.

The skis are spoiled. They get to hang out in the bedroom.

To be fair I was being a little metaphorical, and don't have a garage either, but I hear ya. The toy box is the same no matter if its a shed, garage, or tiny bedroom :-) They can all hold yer toys :-)

Mine too, no danger if I had a garage I'd leave me in there. They might start to rust.....

I’ve got my shitbox, lawnmower, my Allplays, and my neighbors kids

What are your Allplays like? I checked em out before but came down on the side of them being likely to be a bit soft in flex for my liking...

Id probably have to say in between west and arv’s in terms of stiffness, haven’t been able to take them over 50 because the tips like to chatter, and good luck on ice or hard snow but besides that it’s a really fun ski especially in crud or spring snow
 
I got K2 Extremes from HS, Line Darksides(first twin tip), K2 Revivals, Volkl Vertiog, Volkl Karmas, ON3P Kartel 98's and just picked up some new Fauna Pioneers. Along with the wifes car, tools and some motorcycles.

Skate park will keep the balance in. I guess its a bit far to go Hood or Whistler then? I've done a few trips to ski in summer in Europe, can be pretty nice.
 
3 grow tents full of rare tropical plants, sewing machines (don't ask), targets, and some skis.

I hope the rare tropical plants are also excellent herbal remedies when appropriately cared for and treated prior to use :-)

No, literally just plants imported from Thailand. Wife crushes it selling them.

Dude, I can't even get a bag of peanuts into the States or Canada when I travel there.... How the fuck does one get live plants from Thailand into anywhere these days without some seriously tedious paperwork going on....? You never seen border cops on tv???????

LOL, it all has to go through customs, and the shipping cost are high. Sometimes shit gets stuck in customs, sometimes shit goes bad. Wife has definitely lost a few thousand dollars when that has happened.

Several pairs of bananas :-) LOL still can't get used to seeing crazy amounts of rocker on planks :-)

I ski mostly rails and It's really hard to go back to an unrockered ski for those purposes once you get used to it. Really easy to whip these around onto and off of rails

16 bdogs i see? love those! my pair refuses to die. have the same bindings mounted on mine

I use to love them but now I actually can't stand how heavy and flexy they are :(

They were quite durable though, still in good enough shape to be skied. Always really loved the graphic as well
