I’ll show you mine if you show me yours

Your quiver that is. What did you think I meant? I realize mine isn’t that big...

That is a very well rounded quiver, Brownski.

Which skis do you use the most?

Historical perspective:

I figured this thread must have been done before. Somebody reminded me recently “there are no no new ideas”.

Currently the Blizzards get the most use. I’ve always aspired to be a one-ski-quiver guy. The Xscreams were it for me for over a decade- carvers, powder skis and rock ski all in one. They’re just the rock skis now. I got out the K2s  on a whim two years ago (they had been collecting dust and rust) and was surprised at how much fun they were (like a seriously huge amount of fun) so they’re back in the rotation.

I have other pairs of skis but only three pairs that I use.

The only pair I use for lift-served skiing are my WhiteRooms:



I have a pair of Rossi BC 110 for BC and I use classic Karhu XCD GTs when the cover is thin. I keep them in the mountains so I don't have a picture of all pairs together.

I didn’t include my XCs ‘cause I’ve decided to pass them down. I’m in the market again I guess

Just got the Liberty’s over the summer.

My youngest nephew grew up skiing at Jay Peak but has been living "out west" for the last 10 years or so. He worked on the trail crew at SSV for several years and recently decided to get real job and become an electrician. Now, for some inexplicable reason (well, family, perhaps), he has decided to move back east and bring his entire quiver with him. It is impressive and quite varied, so I thought it worth sharing here:

Now there’s a collection!  Anybody who held onto their Xscreams AND has a mono board  is alright by me.

Nice graphics on those Libertys

And he is only 30 or so. He was skiing the X-Screams as a teenager.

Sweet quiver!!  You should charge him rent to store it... I bet that stack could fill a mini POD.  What's his boot collection look like? 

Had something similar.  Trimmed mine down considerably over the past few years.  We are planning move to a space 1/2 to 1/3 of what we currently have.  I'm in the process of minimalizing my gear portfolio.  In addition to skis and snowboards, I somehow accumulated a staggering amount of bicycle wheels and musical instruments.   

Second to last on the looker's right, next to the bleau Elans.... is it a low resolution opti-illusion, or is that a Mono?

As far as I know, he just has one battered pair of Full Tilts, and I suppose something 75 mm to fit the misery sticks. He was the early adopter of Full Tilts in our family, now his father, cousin and me all wear them.

Yup, La Mono it is.

Harvey, the best thing about your Whiterooms is the background!   :)
