Just bought My 3rd Pair Of Skis

God I'm stupid Confused

Been reading up on skis for days now - started off with my Orions which were made for me in Chepalare - then last year I bought some Blizzard Skis which were OK but not any better.

Now just bought some Rossignol Zenith Oversize Z5.
Supposed to be for advanced skiers who want more of a thrill Razz

Waiting for them to arrive before I try them down the stairs Very Happy Very Happy Very Happy Very Happy

What do they say about a fool and his money Confused

Paid £240 for them to include bindings ...

how much did you pay for your orion skies? Ive seen the factory, but never been in there. Maybe I have a look this year. :-)

re: Just bought My 3rd Pair Of Skis

It was a few years ago now Troll - but something like £100 with bindings.

If you go to the factory they will make them to measure or you can buy them pretty much anywhere in the resorts off the shelf.

Ive been messing around hiring different skies and the best are Atomic SX :10 or SX :11

Awsome

there are cheap copies around so dont be fooled with nice looking ones. try them out and compare how they feel.
