phillycore Posted February 18, 2009 Report Posted February 18, 2009 Probably the absolute last thing I need right now is a new pair of skis yet I don't ever seem to just be satisfied with what I have... The only reason there isn't a pair of volkl bridge 185's on the way to me right now is because they sold them... someone please bitch slap me... Quote
RootDKJ Posted February 18, 2009 Report Posted February 18, 2009 I was really tempted by them also. Quote

nick malozzi Posted February 18, 2009 Report Posted February 18, 2009 I'm a whore too, it is an addiction. The issue for me though is that I have TOO many hobbies. I may only have 2 snowboards, but I have 2 bikes, 2 kayaks (plus all the other kayak gear), a ton of climbing gear, hiking/camping gear, and looks like a lot more to come this spring. I need a freeckin garage bad. Quote

I need a freeckin garage bad. I just built a shed last fall for this exact reason, and promptly filled it the next day. At least the GF stopped complaining about gear in every corner of the house. Now i just have to battle the shed gauntlet any time I wanna go do something. Quote
phillycore Posted February 18, 2009 Author Report Posted February 18, 2009 2 Pairs of skis, and a pair of icelantic scouts is being a gear whore when you only can ski 20 days a year. I also have 2 pairs of boots 4 jackets (2 of them identical but different colors...) 6 pairs of pants although I've only worn two different ones this season.. 4 pairs of goggles I like buying skiing equipment... I even bought my son 2 pairs of skis..... and he has only been out 8 days this season so far... It's a bad addiction.... Quote

Although, maybe I should in case I get robbed or my place burns, haha. Quote
Santa Clauss Posted February 18, 2009 Report Posted February 18, 2009 ok... so far this season I bought 2 (Traded 1 pare in on the 2nd but didn't get much) complete ski setup's, a complete board set up. Bringing it to 1 ski set up 3 boards, 3 bindings, 2 sets of boots 3 pants 3 jackets 2 goggles 3 gloves bikes? last year alone, $2400 specialized stump jumper and $1200 specialized road bike. bringing it to 2 mountain bikes 1 Freeride 1 road bike 1 Dirt jump 2 "Other" Thinking about starting DH/ freeriding again may get a demo 8 in the spring... or new rims for the whip. (Leaning on the demo 8 used on ebay) for the summer I was thinking about kiteboarding on the lake (I live on a lake) but I talked to some people and apparently you really need lesson's regardless of being able to snowboard or w/e and the trees... $1200 kites? hmm... I already wakeboard and its sick but no body has a boat with a tower and it's getting pointless, plus its hard to get people to drive you and I want to do it longer than 20min, I would like to do it alone and on my time, thats the only shitty part of wake Maybe wind surfing on the lake but I think it might get boring, also thinking of ww kayaking if I could find some good people to go with and are willing to teach me the essentials. don't worry I use my own money, I just live at home (Thank god) and don't have kids (That I know of) Id love to find people to climb with but aflack doesn't cover climbing injuries! You think you hobby problems? Quote
Dan- Posted February 18, 2009 Report Posted February 18, 2009 Over the course of this year alone, i had 6 boards. Down to 2 at the moment, sold 3 of them, and broke another. Quote
Johnny Law Posted February 18, 2009 Report Posted February 18, 2009 Keepin my eyes peeled for a set of Prophet 100's. Jibshop has next year's for 450, there is TGR thread about a sale at SieraSkis that has them I think for nearly the same price. I saw your verbal sparring on TGR with Rubi so I'm sure you know but they pop up a lot in Gear Swap. You don't have a ton of posts so if you want them let me know and I'll vouch for you. I've had no problems with Gear Swap and have appox. 20 transactions. http://www.tetongravity.com/forums/showthr...ghlight=Prophet http://www.tetongravity.com/forums/showthr...ghlight=Prophet Quote
Santa Clauss Posted February 18, 2009 Report Posted February 18, 2009 Wow, i didn't mean to go overboard, I wanted to add this, if anyone's got a pair of big ass pow ski's they want to get rid of let me know, one pair doesn't cut it. If I start a thread on the water forum is anyone even gonna look at it? and is anyone hear experienced with kiteboarding or windsurfing? nick I know you kayak but I don't know anyone on this side of the country and if I'm gonna invest I want to go every weekend. Also, anyone hear of a new freeride park going in the scranton area? I know about mountain creek and went once (Best day of my life) Quote
