Does the $66 bucks the website says they are charging tomorrow make sense to anyone else? The way I read the conditions report and trail map, it’s really only Alpha, Kary/Plat, Ely/Stoic and Oly. IE 3 trails?

I grew up, and still am, a lake/ski guy. I’m not sure I would ever plan a weekend trip for 5+ hours driving to CNY to go skiing. I’m the biggest homer as anyone and yes it does dump snow here, but it’s often a case of getting after it whenever it’s there, rather than waiting for the weekend...

No, the shop guys didn’t even tell me about the Bones, I noticed them sitting there and the really cheap price and asked why. Turns out they are orphans that didn’t sell last year. Anyway, don’t know why he didn’t think the QST was worth talking about. At least one of the online retailers...

Riblet centerpole double at Song - just because!

Took the long way home and went to the Ski Company tonight. They're picked over pretty good but found a couple options. 2021 Kone 93, 189, about $100 more than the online retailers. Didn't realize that they were actually 95 underfoot at the 189 length. Extremely light, 17m radius seems about...

Eh, My local shop is The Ski Company, which isn’t all that great. Maybe I’ll try the one in Ithaca, Cayuga Ski?

Ok, I think I need to make a change ASAP. As you may know we got nuked on Friday night/Saturday morning. No joke legit 2-4” per hour snowfall. Anyway, since I don’t float on my current skis it was pretty deep but fortunately light enough to push around. Until I made a turn close to a lift...

Realistically between the Progressors I have and a mid 90’s all mountain, what more could I possibly need for CNY with an occasional trip to Gore or Whiteface. I’ve got a full time job and the kids with all their stuff; so I’m not chasing powder days. It’s just when I want to bash bumps all...

Oh! I like it. It’s not the cost, it’s the cost over time!

So several comments on the 190+ lengths being too long. I’ll keep the lengths down. The J’s look like they are either 181 or 187. Rustler 9’s are 180 or 188. Assuming I want the longer of those 2? Dropping the SR’s; didn’t get approval from the budget director. So looks like: J MB 187(?)...

Guys, I appreciate the responses. So the Kore 93’s will go on the list. Re: width, I struggle what to do here. If the progressors are relegated to hard snow/low tide conditions, that means I’m going to be on the new ones quite a bit. Which is why I leaned towards skis which fall on the...

Hi all, Long time lurker looking for advise. Me: 45yo, 6'-3", 230 lbs, advanced skier (not expert) Where: CNY and ADKs What: Pretty much everything; groomers, bumps, trees, etc. No park. Current Ski: Fischer Progressor 9+, 180cm, 70mm waist, 14m/19m dual radius sidecut. Bought brand new in...
