RobBright 35 Posted February 2, 2008 Share Posted February 2, 2008 In regards to the going to the dark side thread - this involves going the opposite way. Just a quick backstory - I haven't been skiing for an eternity and a day (well about 5 years) since I hit my first powder on the 'board and have never looked back - until I see people's pics from the off-piste action on skis. What skies do people recommend for re-starters. Would like some general all rounders, not too expensive as might not enjoy it as much . Just a quick spec - I use 29cms boots and have a wide foot - about 14cms - if that helps. Link to post Share on other sites
boardbaka 3 Posted February 2, 2008 Share Posted February 2, 2008 I think Saloman pocket rockets are the nuts and not just because i like them- where I used to work in nz - the renatal dept. had all the latest saloman stuff was the year before the malamutes(snwbrd boots)were released to retail- I used to take those skis out fromn time to time and loved them - I think you couldget them pretty cheap now they are around five or so years old gd luck with getting back on the planks Link to post Share on other sites
