Skis and more skis.....

A ski for every need. These are the keepers to date. A couple not in the picture and fewmoreto add to the quiver yet. And a few skisto be retired once that happens. I'm obviously partial to lwt skis with a BC leaning. But by no means am I only interested in ski mountaineering and "edgedalpinism". I like being lifted served as well as I do having the ability to easily travel any where in the mountains.So you will see some extremes in my favorites. Eventually everything pictured and listed will get a full review. But if it is pictured or listed here...I think the performance within its genre is any where from above average to simply spectacular by comparison.

Boots? If your feet hurt skiing isn't all that much fun. All these boots fit mewell. But some better than others to be sure.

Dynafit One

Dynafit TLT 5 Performance

Dynafi TLT 5Mountian

*Scarpa Alien 1.0 (not shown)

*Dynafit DyNA PDG (not shown)











Bindings? From my perspective..the lighter the better on any tech bindings.

Dynafit, Plum and Trab mountedon my skis. B&D top platesas well.(only Plum is not pictued here)





It has taken me 3 years to sort through my skiing gear and come up with "everything" I wanted. And three years to try and then reject a bunch of gear I didn't like for what ever reason. More to come as to thewhy and the why not.
