Well gang....getting quite a broad slice of emotional and financial opinions..

What I was trying to express is the point JB stated....new skis can make a difference.
 IF you are aware of what is happening below the ankles, sometimes a bit wider, floatier, turnier, softer, more snappy, can all bring a new element of performace to skiing.

Maybe that something out there may not be the magic bullet or cure all...but it may certainly make your performance on snow a bit more fluid, easier, more fun, even with your current ski skills.

 Much depends on the individuals mindset....I can work with a drill with and power cord or a cordless drill...they both will do the job...but I may recognize benefits of one over the other....you may not....It may depend on how many holes you have to drill. I guess some of us do it because the pretty shoes just make us feel prettier? :o....some of us really do get something out of it...a little more, a little faster, a little smoother and at the end of the day.....pretty shoes or sweet skis...it's just gotta make ya smile even longer and bigger.? ;D?
Best, G

Gee G,
I wonder what happened to the logical guy I skied with last April at Holimount who was "ranting" about this perfect 2 ski quiver of a Fischer Progressor for everything up to 12" new snow, plus, a pair of Icelantic Pilgrims, 92 waist, for the western dumps?

I know you turned 60 this year, I'm kinda wondering what happened? Buying a pair of JJ's without demo'ing! The switch to Kastle midweek in JH!

Admit it, no matter what you said in the post, it can be reduced to 6 words.

"I wanted them, I bought them". And we are all guilty of making such purchases.

Enjoy!!

PS, I think you really did it so that you and Alice can remain a matched pair. She looks sooo good on the MX 78!
