I used to ski a lot when I was younger. Had a set of K2 triaxles from like 1995 (215s) and loved how fast I can go but turning was a little meh, so trails with a lot of trees I avoided and deep deep moguls would fuck me up. I also had a set of K2 something or other that were 165s and shit, I loved them. Looking to buy a set of these tiny skiboards and go have some fun in VT sometime this year. Any suggestions? Smaefer? 🙂 ---

I dont think they sell too many long boards anymore 198+ since shaped skis came out. ---

Don’t get those little skiboards. If you used to ski just get another set of skis. I just came back from VT and those idiots on the skiboards were rolling down the hill and completely sucked, maybe because they just suck, or maybe because you really can’t go too fast due to stability on them. ---
