In talking with different retailers and vendors there is not a lot of extra stock of new model skis to be had, so if you want a ski don’t wait or you may just have to wait for another year to get the ski that you wanted. All companies are already really low on Freeride and Powder Skis so do not expect the same deals that you saw last year on equipment in the spring. There are some great deals on last years equipment right now and that is selling really quick as not many companies made drastic changes in their 2010 Ski Line. By early to find the best selection and many companies may be able to work deals on packages so look to see if they have binding specials with the skis and especially places that have free mounting that will save you $30-$50.
Win Skis for Life with the K2 Skis Golden Ticket
When you purchase a 2010 pair of K2 freeride skis you receive a Golden Ticket from select retailers that are participating in the program. Entry’s need to be postmarked by December 31st, 2009, so there is an incentive to buy early as there are only 1250 Golden Tickets so your chances of winning are very high as not everyone will send in their Golden Ticket. Official rules are on the back of the Golden Ticket so get your 2010 K2 Skis today from a participating dealer and send in your golden ticket to receive skis for the rest of your life!!! Not a bad deal at all.
2010 Volkl Gotama Junior Rockered Skis
The new 2010 Volkl Gotama Junior Skis are a great addition to the Volkl line up. With one of the first junior skis with tip and tail rocker their Volkl Gotama Jr. will be sure to sell out quickly. The 158cm length is a wonderful tweener ski and a ski that not many companies have. If your kid weighs under 130lbs and is not ready for an adult ski but is still a very solid skier you really should consider looking into the Volkl Gotama Jr Ski. It skis very well all-mountain and really skis well when you get it on steep and deep terrain. If your kid needs a ski to keep up with you this is a great choice for 2010.
Meathead Films “Wild Stallions”
Last night I went to a movie premier with the Meathead Films crew and what a great time it was. If there is a movie premier coming near you I would suggest getting off your couch and going to check it out. Great people, great film, and endless entertainment by the crew from Meathead. Tons of shirts, beanies, magazines, stickers, dvd’s and everything else are given out for free. Support your local clubs by going to check out the movie premiers near you and enjoy watch some pure ski entertainment from the guys at Ski The East.
