Quiver Question

[Scrundy]

Not much talk on here about equipment but have a question.
For those with a quiver, what ski comes with you everywhere? For me it's the Atomic Maverick 88's, they don't do everything great but do everything pretty dare good.
I either waist up or down depending on conditions I expect for second pair.

I'm basically skiing on two skis:

Head Core 88 (2 layers of titanol), traditional camber, maybe 75% of my days
WhiteRoom Model 44 96mm waist, rocker tip and tail, I use it anytime there is new snow (more than 2")

 

[Campgottagopee]

Rossi E88's daily drives
Fire Arrow 84 Pro's for hard pack
Patron's when it POW

All of them are the longest they make

 

[Ripitz]

Stockli Edge 88 174 for all around.

Stockli Stormrider 95 or Voile Ultravector 96 for when it’s deep.

Almost forgot
Fischer RC4's, 223, for when I want to go fast

Have the Kore 93, prefer to ski these all the time but Mother Nature . Definitely my second choice. As I get older the light weight carbon skis are appealing. Definitely an all rounder.

88mm waist with metal. Perfect east coast daily driver, as shown in this thread.

I also use the Atomic Maverick. Haven’t skied it much this year, though. Been on twin tips for teaching days & Brahma 82s that I just mounted for early season firm snow days.

 

[Brownski]

Enforcer 88s for the majority of days and TJs old Billy Goats for powder. I haven’t thrown out my XScreams or my even older K2 812s though. They could still make a comeback

Jski master blaster 96 under foot. My only ski. At some point I want to get Edge 88 for daily skiing but have not gotten around to it. I am sure there about 6 different skis that I could insert into that 84-88 range when I get around to it.

One for each leg perfectly matched.

Post in thread 'Ski Length'

Dec 21, 2023

It seems to me that there are several 45+ skiers on this forum. Was curious if people have been moving to shorter skis as they age.

Ain’t a septuagenarian but 5 foot 9 or 8 as I haven’t measured lately.
Have some Volkl RTM84s but are kinda heavy & a workout even at the local bump after a few hours skiing nonstop.
Got me some sweet lighter Montero ASs Jimmy at The Ski Company recommended but have yet to see snow.
The Volkl’s are 172.
The Stockli’s are 166. Gonna try em soon.
A friend who’s in his mid 80s gave me his like new old Atomic Beta Race 9.20s when he moved to New Hampshire...

The Montero AS’s are EZ to turn, seem pretty light and ya can feel they're well made.
Have yet to try em in the deep end much.
Could be a bit of a challenge for this operator.
Skiing is fun.
