AngryHugo Posted September 1, 2009 Report Posted September 1, 2009 Hoping to start the season with a new freeride-ish board, most likely with an alternative camber. The GNU Billy Goat C2X has my eye at the moment.
Dan- Posted September 2, 2009 Report Posted September 2, 2009 Hoping to start the season with a new freeride-ish board, most likely with an alternative camber. The GNU Billy Goat C2X has my eye at the moment. I had the same thoughts last year, but decided on the Rome Notch 1985, glad i did. I have a GNU riders choice BTX, the Notch just feels so much better, and yes the notch is also reverse camber. I don't think im going to have a single cambered board in my quiver this year. In my opinion RC is the only way to go anymore.
AtomicSkier Posted September 9, 2009 Report Posted September 9, 2009 I'll be picking up a pair of Volkl Gotama's in the next few weeks
Philpug Posted September 9, 2009 Report Posted September 9, 2009 I'll be picking up a pair of Volkl Gotama's in the next few weeks Atomic Gotamas? For those getting Afterbangs...They are damn sweet skis, one of the best in that price range. Very cool construction too.

AngryHugo Posted September 19, 2009 Report Posted September 19, 2009 I went for the 162. I already have a 159 Anthem, and I wanted something a little longer. I thought about grabbing that used one from you, but decided to spring for the new one. Can't wait to try it.
toast21602 Posted September 19, 2009 Report Posted September 19, 2009 my gear upgrade was a house to store my skis in. it looks like its the only upgrade i will be making this year.
train36 Posted September 19, 2009 Report Posted September 19, 2009 I am going to be getting A Never Summer Evo 158 and a new pair of Union Forces to go with it. Picked up some Dakine Cobra gloves , and some new 686 outerwear from dogfunk that was deeply discounted. I need a new pair of goggles. Anyone have any recommendations? I like the Anon Figments I have now since they fit my R.E.D. helmet good and i have pretty much every lens for them, so I might just grab another pair. I also like the Smith I/O but don't know how they will fit. I guess I will have to wear my helmet to a couple stores and see how different goggles fit with it.
train36 Posted September 19, 2009 Report Posted September 19, 2009 The Oakley splices are sick. I will check them out, thanks.
snorovr Posted September 20, 2009 Report Posted September 20, 2009 I picked up a Patagonia coat at Nestors for 40% off today. Also grabbed a pair of mountain khakis for work at 30% off. They still have a pretty good selection of stuff on the coat and pants racks in a variety of sizes. I'm limiting skiing gear spending this year to $500 I think... Still need new helmet, goggles, pants...
zaldon Posted September 21, 2009 Report Posted September 21, 2009 I purchased a pair of Solomon spx 44 bindings back in may, and as soon as i opened the box i began to trad parts between my spx 55 and it, so now i have 2 hybrid bindings.
lineskier18 Posted September 21, 2009 Report Posted September 21, 2009 I was planning on getting a tele setup to try and learn this season, but instead I'm getting new paintball gear since I made the speedball team here. And I can't get off campus in the winter anyway...and of course I'm only 40 mins from Stowe Next season my Army stipend is going into new skis though

Probably around lunchtime. too bad i'll be out of town for the weekend or i'd tell you to bring your bike out for a ride - there's some fun trails right around the corner, think i'm gonna hit it for a bit after work today
nick malozzi Posted September 25, 2009 Report Posted September 25, 2009 nothing just yet, but i forsee a pair of 32lashed in my future... and depending on how my room mate scenario turns out i have hopes for a Never Summer Legacy-R with Union Binders. We'll see about that though.
