Hi im looking for a affordable binding that I can buy for my Atomic bent 90

Im looking for a new Ski I wanna Drive mostly on Piste and sometimes a Bit off Piste but mostly carving and it should be a Twin tip. I thought about getting the bent 90s I Heard good stuff about them

I'm skiing in Austria soon and wanted to know what to wear as I have no clue.

Thanks

Hi, my local ski store has Pivot 14 ($160 USD) and Strive 14 ($199 USD) on sale.

Is the Strive 14 worth the $40 extra? I ski about 60-70 days per year, all mountain skiing in Utah. I would be mounting them on my Armada ARV skis that I just bought.

Im looking for new Skis I wanna buy a pair of Twin Tips but I Ride mostly on Piste but I want to take every Jump on and Off the Piste. Some of my Friends Said that the armada arv94 would fit me but isnt that a Park Ski. Please help me find a Ski that Fits me

I Cant Decide between those two Skis I want to carve but still take many jumps on and off the Piste and sometimes Go in the Park
Im 176cm and 66kg

I'm currently looking for new skis as I hope to get better prices now in the off-season.

I was looking for Black Crows Mirus Cor but after reading a few reviews I'm not too sure about them anymore.

I mostly ride on piste on groomers and higher speeds and never go to the park and rarely off piste but I feel like maybe trying out something new for fun.

Last year I tried the Black Crows Camox and was struggling the whole day due to its large turn radius and the difficult conditions at the end of the day.

So I'm looking for a ski that can do the following:

- small to medium turn radius

- softer to be playful but still stiff enough for higher speeds

- maybe twin tips just for the sake of it

So basically a more playful ski I can take for poorer conditions when there is a lot of snow on the piste or during the end of the day but can still act as a high performance ski when it gets faster.

I know that there might not be any ski that fits all of my needs but maybe there are some models that go into that direction.

Thanks for any recommendations!

Hello all,

I’m looking for boot fitter recommendations in Jackson, WY or Driggs, ID. Don’t have any options locally, so I’m going to knock this out on a trip.

I’m currently in a ‘22 Mach 1 LV 130 and I’m looking to do either:

1. custom zip fits
2. new Mach 1 or Fischer RC4 Carbon Pro

I know almost all shops carry Tecnica, but I’ve heard the Fischers can be harder to find.

Appreciate any recs

Exploring options for a good set of skis. I'm a 5'10 160 lbs guy - mainly looking for something that's decent at carving and stable at 50mph. Ice coast so powder isn't a worry. I do enjoy the occasional tree run, and ideally would be good for 30-50 foot jumps. Is there any one good ski for this or is it too many requirements? If split into two pairs, what would be some good recommendations?

I'm currently looking at either Blizzard Rustler 9 180cm or Nordica Enforcer 94 179cm. Thoughts?

Hello gent/ladies, i am a M 1.80cm and 77kg i looking for a ski for mostly resort skiing,
Any suggestions are welcomed thank you

Edit: i am a beginner/intermediate , i mostly ski in Brezovica (Kosovo), piste

It’s a long story but I lost a pair of Reckoner 114 KFs at Mammoth this past season. They got buried in the snow and I couldn’t find them after hours of digging.

As the snow melted, they recently got returned and I noticed some rust has formed on the edges and in some areas in the bindings (pivot 15s). Wondering if you guys think this is just minor surface level stuff that can be taken care of with an edge tune or if there could be deeper problems with the ski?

Being upfront: this is half gear question, half "roast my idea."

Last season I caught an edge and cut my brand new pants. Tenacious Tape fixes it, but it looks like I taped a trash bag to my leg. While googling I found NOSO patches — way better looking, but the designs are limited, and they won't do custom unless you order 200+.

So I had the classic shower thought: what if you could get a one-off custom design on an actual repair-grade waterproof patch? Turn the gash into something instead of hiding it.

Told my buddy and he laughed at me: "I'm not paying $35 to fix ski pants. I'd slap tape on it or just live with it."

So before I spend my summer figuring out materials — honest question: last time you tore your shell or pants, what did you actually do? Tape? NOSO? Repair shop? Nothing? And would a custom patch have even crossed your mind, or is this a solution looking for a problem?

Not selling anything (nothing exists yet). Just trying to figure out if my friend saved me from a dumb idea or talked me out of a decent one.

I can’t seem to find these skis anywhere in a 176. Are the 2026s just done production? When would the 2027s hit the market?
