This is definitely a great time to buy ski's, everything will be really cheap. You can buy demo ski's for nearly half the price at any of the major mountains in your area, or try going to Gart Sports, or G.I.Joes.... or really any large sports warehouse in your area. Try looking in your local newspaper as well, I'm sure you can find some great deals in there as well. Good luck! ...Spring Skiing really is the best.

You know, people get all worked up over the "best ski".\n\nThere is no such thing. Pretty much all manufacturers create quality skis. I have ridden on practically everything, have skied for 30 years, raced, coached, instructed, and skied some pretty crazy stuff, and find no real difference between brands. So asking for a company and model doesn't make sense to me.\n\nThe only thing you should concern yourself with is the use - which you listed practically everything, and the length, which the ski shop will help you out with.\n\nBut to answer your questions on type of ski to get - there isn't one ski that does it all well, and for 12 year old kids, there aren't a huge amount of options. If he likes to style in the park, ride the rails, then twin tips are what you want - incidentally, twins are also good in powder.\n\nHowever, they won't be good on ice.\n\nYour best bet is an all-mountain ski, which will carve on ice, and handle crud well, plus is fine in the park. Concerning powder, well, the lad is just 12. He will float in the powder on 2x4's. Kids don't need to worry about powder skis yet.\n\nHope this helps - remember - any brand is fine - go for an all-mountain type of ski. Unless if you talk to him he really wants twins. Those are fine - I have a pair as well, they will just be a little less efficient on ice and crud.

Go to www.sportsmanguide.com they have a lot of stuff at really low prices.  I got a really good deal on a treadmill saved almost $50 after comparing prices to other stores.  Don't forget where ever you buy from, always do a google search for coupon codes for discounts.  Xbargins always has the most updated codes.

Personally I don't like either of those skis. They are not powder skis. If you tell me what region you live in and how much you ski on and off trails I can look for you

You should go and rent one at the mountain first, just to make sure you like it first.  I got mine for real cheap off a website that I wish I could recall, then got the boots and bindings off ebay.  Search the web, but if you are going to buy one, go to a ski shop to get meashured.

That's a good question!!! I heard that some people get them from BlueMountain.com, but I'm not sure...

They still sell those. Any sporting goods store should have them. Walmart or Target or whatnot should have cheaper versions.

Check out Tiger Direct - $39.95\n\n(Though you could probably find one in a local store - I think my Super Stop&Shop carries them, for crying out loud!) :)\n\nHope that helps! Good luck!

The XSki is totally awesome. Custom made in the small confines of a mini warehouse in Belgium by two former world class skiers. Presently, you cannot purchase or even order the skis. But, as soon as they acquire the pending patents, availability will be right around the corner.
