I broke down and purchased a pair of Dynastar Contact 4x4  172cm skis from Powder7.com. They were advertising here on Epic Ski. The demo skis were in great shape and very reasonably priced at $339. Several small purchases at the local Labor Day Sales here in Summit County Colorado.

With a 12-yr old racer, there's always something in the pipeline. New boots this week to match the 2 new pairs of skis a short while ago, and the Spyder Insulator from Muleski last week.

Last season, not counting all the kids' Patagonia uppers, lowers, ski socks, etc. etc., I purchased:

1.  Yakima "Sky Box" pod (16 cu. ft.) -- works great; easy-on easy-off, strong, no wind whistling effect. 
 
2.  Camelbak Zoid winter hydropack-- beautiful swag, works well, but I only use it about 1 in every 3 times out.

3.  Rossi skis / youth (model?) -- had rented these for the season for my son and then purchased them real cheap at the end of the season.  Now, at the rate he's growing, they'll probably be too small by the time we have snow this season.

For those who remember, I also started a long thread on walkie-talkies.  But I just couldn't pull the trigger on them -- the idea of reading the instructions, remembering what all the buttons did, having my daughter lose hers by Day 3 of skiing, etc.  It was just too much.   And I didn't lose either of my kids all season.....

Now, my early season lust is for kick-a$$ goggles: polarized, photochromic,
spherical lenses, illegal to export to China, etc. 
                                                                      

Enjoy every sandwich.

 Nice thread, I like the idea here and it certainly has potential to be a classic!

I suppose my most recent "purchase" was Powder Mag.  I get skiing in the mail, but am not subscribed to Powder (yet?) for this season, so when I saw the first issue at Out of Town News a couple weeks ago I just couldn't resist.  

I say I suppose because since then I WON A PAIR OF PMGEAR POACHNINJA LHASA POW's!!!  This wasn't technically a purchase, but I can almost guarantee my next one will be a set of clamps to put on them!!!!

Since I'm buying my pass "on time" I'm getting hit with a "ski related purchase" every month....


There's no such thing as bad weather, only bad equipment.

Then perhaps the question should be "Your Most Recent Skiing Related Freebee?"
