The prices for some of these skis put them at a stone's throw from use demo skis (maybe +$100 over demos w/ bindings and install?). I could totally justify new skis as rock skis for some of these to be honest. We've had a great start to the season up here at Schweitzer, but I would have rocked them at opening last year.
Best Deal Yet! 2024 Volkl Blaze 86 for $229.95 in several lengths from Ski Essentials. Originally $549.95 so that's less than half price. Ridiculous savings.
If I couldn't see rocks on the tops of 6k foot mountains and the rest wasn't ice or runoff, I might consider buying skis, but considering there hasn't been a single good day of skiing in SE Alaska, I'll wait to spend my money. Killer
@@RicketySkiReviewsright on man! Looking forward to your response and eventual review! Found some used ones that are my size and I’m debating whether they’re worth it or not. Appreciate all your reviews, thanks once again!
I got a good deal on the '25 Bent 100 so I thought it was destiny I picked them up. What I'm really looking for is a deal on the Volkl Peregrine VWerks which I will get to replace my RTM 86's which I love but getting close to end of life. lol Also, thanks for the content and deal links.
What do you think about the Line Blade Optic 96 or 104? Even if you haven’t tried them, have you heard any reviews? What are your thoughts? Can they still carve decent, handle heavy wet PNW crud well?
Haven't put those skis on my feet before, so impossible to tell you my opinions on that specific ski, but generally the build quality on Volkl's is good and that's a great price. I know nothing about snowleader either.
What have you heard about the m-free 99? I'm considering picking them up only $400 right now, or the qst 92 to replace my mindbender 89ti which feels too boring for my taste
Good job finding deals! Thanks for doing these!
Ski deal videos are awesome! Nice way to keep a pulse on what’s happening with skis/gear without sitting to look through the website myself.
I don't even need new skis but I watched this entire video. I like your reviews and I like knowing what's out there right now.
was able to score bent 110s for 375 earlier last month, thank you!
Awesome, great find!

Oooo. Fischer ranger in 156 is MY JAM

Brutal, yeah it is still rock ski season here too
Thanks for the details man! Have you reviewed your newer pair of zip fits yet? Couldn’t find a video and was curious about your opinion!
Thanks!
Not yet, I want to be really thorough with the review and make sure I get good mileage on them so it may be a bit
@@RicketySkiReviewsthank you!
Gonna feature this comment in my next video

I’ve had a set of new (2024) Wingmans with bindings in my ebay cart for a week and the guy offered to sell them to me for $450. This market is wild!

what do you think about a two ski quiver of the nordica enforcer 94 and the Black crows Atris
That's a great quiver! will talk about it in my next video so keep an eye out!

Got the Völkl revolt 104 23/24 with binding for 360 at snowleader.
You think it was a good deal?

I was lucky and got the bent 110 on the first go round of price drops for under $300 glad I jumped on it when I did 🔥
That's rad!
No bindings? I can't seem to find a great deal on them.
Here's what I use, the Look Spx 12 down from $250 to $164: www.avantlink.com/click.php?tt=pl&ti=132&pw=372417&mi=10270&pt=3&pri=427688
