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.
