Time for new skis?

As winter starts to swing into gear, now may be a good time to think about new skis for the 12-13 season. REI put together a great little list of things to think about when out shopping for new sticks.

Our list basically comes down to:

• Budget: We can only afford so much ski, with fuel bills so high from exploring Colorado resorts
• Features: The feature set will depend on the type of terrain you love and local conditions
• Skier ability: There is such thing as 'too much' ski
• Dependability: With a growing family, and many friends that love to ride, our skis don't always stay safe in the Thule rack. Not to mention a rock or two in early season conditions.

REI's post has some great tips to think about.
