Why buy new stuff?

[Crazy_Chinaman]

Hey all, i want some people's opinions. Unfourtunately, I live in the midwest, so i only go skiing 1 to 2 weeks a year. Do you think I should invest in my own equipment?

 

[ColoradoFlats]

maybe, if you go religiously 1 or 2 weeks a year...i would, just buy lower priced last year stuff

 

[Casper]

It also depends on your skill level. Some resorts in the MW have shitty equipment, and I wouldnt put up with elan scx's. Just look at cost vs benefit.

If you ski out on one of the coast for 1 or 2 weeks you are definatly better off demo-ing, but like someone said before, definatly buy your own stuff if your skiing in the MW. If you choose to buy, find some deals on last years models, a lot of the time they are the same pieve of equitment with different graphics.

go second hand dude, look arouind theres tons of deals out there

 

[Itsbackfliptime]

get your own equipment. If you have to rent its almost like buying 2 lift tickets. Its worth it after a season. I would go for used or demos. Or find a good sale.

[Crazy_Chinaman]

yeah..when i said 1 or 2 weeks, i meant 1 or 2 in UP MI, or out west. i do weekends here just randomly...

Def get some of your own stuff. Find some good deals on used stuff...cheapest way to go.
