Out:

Not sure, 193 Blowers, maybe the 185s, possibly the Thirteens.  We'll see how I like the Thugs.

In:

Mrs CA has some 150 B3s from SAC, with Naxos, might get her something wider like a Phat  Luv with alpine binders too. 

The only ski i'm PLANNING to buy is the K2 McConkski, Which will get mounted with some 916s and hung on the wall to be skied in the deep.

I might look at a short, easy slidey ski like an Anti Piste or EHP Renegade for rehab skiing.  None of those ^^^ like to ski slow

You don't find the mythics too heavy to tour with?

The new quiver, same as the old quiver...

Except that after mostly using the 165 Fischer WC SCs last year due to their impressive performance on ice, I'm moving the 190 Volant Machete Gs up in the rotation due to the amount of fun I had on them the last day last spring, despite their not being able to do anything but go straight down on the icy bits.  I guess I realized I don't need to be in control all the time, but that's another thread.

190 cm Volant Machete G  2? m radius
165 cm Fischer WC SC 13-m radius.
208 cm Kästle RX National Team SG  6? m radius.
188? cm P50 F1 still searching for Marker Comp bindings at a garage sale.

 I am tempted by the new Kastle FX84 176 and putting a new Look turntable on it.

'09 178 Dynastar Mythic Rider - Mostly my everyday ski when it's not super hard pack, which it would still do.  Also my Favorite ski.  Mounted with the Fluid PX12's

'08 183 Volkl Gotama - Was my old AT ski, little heavy with the dukes.  Probably sell them.

'09 192 Fischer Watea 101 - New AT ski, Probably going to mount barons on these for less weight

'06 168 Atomic Izor 9:7 - Groomer ski.  Don't really use it much anymore.  Mainly for less experienced friends that need a pair to use when we go on ski/drinking trips.  The Neox 4:12 makes it easy to adjust for anyone.

All in all i think i'm ready to go skiing this year.  Some of you ppl have huge quivers.  Wow.

Some very nice quivers around people.

As for my line-up, it will be the same as last year I'm afraid (save for a good night at the casino ):

VIST GS skis - phenomenal skis, once I'd got used to them...

Fischer RX Hotfire SL skis - really, really grippy and turny. Really good fun, in and out of the course.

Volkl Tigershark 10FT (no-PS) - a good pair of all-rounders, excellent for mid-radius on courduroy.

Plus a pair of old Volkl Vertigo g1 skis. Great pair of early intermediate skis.

Well, I still have no idea what I am going to be skiing on this upcoming season. I have had 5 pairs of Volkl Racetigers come and go in the past 2 and a half months, and I have 2 more pairs coming in. I'm not sure if they are staying or not...

My Racetiger History for this year...

'08-09 Winter
Had:
'07 GS 180
'06 GS 190
'08 GS 187
'09 GS 187
'07 SL 165

End of April 09:
'07 GS 180
'06 GS 190
'09 GS 187

July 09
'09 GS 187
'06 SL 165
'08 GS 183
...

'09 GS skis may be out soon, and I have a pair of '10 GS and SL skis coming in in a few days...

I have had sooo many frikkn Racetigers I have lost count... mind you I have been doing this for 2 years...

I am certain though that the following will be seeing the snow this year:

'08 Volkl Tigershark 12ft 175cm
'07 Volkl P70 SL 156cm
'08 Nordica Dobermann WC SG 202cm
'06 Nordica Dobermann WC DH 216cm (freeski/warmup DH skis)
'10 Pilote Custom GS Racing WC Racestock 186cm (Primary GS skis?)

I should have something finalized in a month or so (hopefully)

So I heard you like Mudkips...

Doh! I was wrong, I just added a pair of 185 Machete FBs. They are stiff bastards, and if I can ride them properly, my game will reach a new level of hardchargetude.

The heaviness of the complexity fuels the force behind the dart that hits the mark.

I was laughing at this, until I counted the lines. I'm not so far off...

I don't want a holiday in the sun

 Head super shapes (06-07's i think?) for all around skiing (I live in the east give me a break)

Blizzard X-Cross For when it's really really icy...or I want to open up some long radius turns at stupid speeds then dump myself out of them when i turn to hard. Or maybe when I want to ride some awesomely ugly skis.

I just got my new 188 Fischer Hole GS back from being drilled last night and I think my new 165 Fischer Hole SL should arrive early next week! Thanks to Dawgcatching! 

I Ski.

All-Mountain: A common descriptive term for boots or skis that are designed to perform equally poorly under a variety of conditions and over many different types of terrain.

The power of accurate observation is commonly called cynicism by those who have not got it.
