Ski Season 2016-17
Scott just bought his new bike, but it's also the season to buy new ski equipment.

The 2016 stuff is super discount, and the new 2017 stuff is still in that early "pre-order it in bulk and get it cheap" phase.
I plan to ski a lot this winter.

They're an evolution of the similar but low-end skis I have now. Much more aggressive, stiffer, etc... Not the most aggressive (I do ski double black nonsense these days), but I probably want to spend a couple years really honing my skills with better skis before I go pro skis.

They're the evolution from what I have now: some ancient Atomic Nomads. Same basic format: rocker-camber. 2cm shorter, much stiffer, better bindings.
I think this will really up my glade game.
