Lol, know that feeling.
Got some real piste skis for the first time last month, go well in the fridge and should be awesome in Cervinia next week 
Also have a Scott electric airbag on order.

@spyderjon must've taken some time off from sunbathing. In the last hour I have taken delivery of the Superguide 95s plus skins that I've had my eye on for the last 18 months. And they're this season's so they match my outfit 
@Maireadoconnor, Sportpursuit summer special?

Must confess to succumbing to temptation and the 40% discount in Concept and acquiring a new shell before I really needed one. Nice shade of blue as well.

I got a new snowboard a few months back out of season when ebay was doing one of their 20% off
Thinking of getting ski mojos if I can convince myself to drill holes in my Step-On boots.

Went to the HH outlet in Cham for a new jkt for me as old one was getting baggy and came out after equipping the whole family with new gear head to toe. A more expensive afternoon than I was planning.

Got some Whitedot Directors from SpyderJon and can't wait to get them on the snow. After a sunny morning, it's just finished raining in Les Menuires. Had a nice walk from Menuires to the Corbelys restaurant and then caught the bus back from St Martin

Prolly about time for a new transceiver. Definitely wanna get some Shifts. Maaaaybe also the new Full Tilt tech boot, or similar Dalbellos (fell in love with the 3-piece flex last season). Not sure which skis yet, maybe new touring, or maybe new powder...

Definitely need some new boots to replace the wellies I've got at the minute, although not sure when I'm going to find the time and money to get somewhere to get them fitted.
Am trying not to look at anywhere selling skis because I've now got 5 pairs and only really want to ski on one of them (and maybe one other pair for rock hard icy days).

Did you get any discount? This is what I'm thinking, new HH jacket, trousers and maybe gloves, cos mine are are all 7 years old minimum.

Got a new helmet and goggles (Sweet protection trooper MIPS and Giro Axis) for no real reason other than I wanted white and they look more cool than my green Giro Edit and Giro Onset combo.

Want some real piste skis. I’d like Rossignol Hero ST or Dynastar speedzone 14 or 16. But I’m still on the fence.
Otherwise I have to console myself with buying stuff for my son, where I can justify he needs it because he’s grown. Got him some Atomic Bent Chetler Mini skis, 155cm long with 90mm waist - think he’ll enjoy them. Need to buy some bindings for them. Mounting them will give me something to do.

@Themasterpiece, I got the speedzone 12's at 166 long (i'm 172cm 65kg) really liking them so far can't wait to give them a proper thrashing.

Nothing...
But that's because in 2017 had ski trip to Park City, Utah...
D@mn you, Jen's ski shop
1. Got Zipfits for my Atomic Hawx 120's - so now have achieved Ski Boot Nirvana.
2. Jen's also had demo Kastle... oh, the humanity. So now have ex demo MX89s - so that's ski plank nirvana.
3. While I was in the US, it seemed rude not to get a new replacement lens for my Smith I/O 7 goggles - the latest photochromic one, fabulous, and some oversize gloves/mittens for any future -30 degC skiing, and a bonkers lite Arcteryx down body warmer which packs into its own pocket... which with the dryguy neoprene boot covers I already had, should see me skiing (relatively) happily in mental east coast Canada style temps rather than hiding/staying warm in a cafe etc.
errr, that was it.
Mostly.

Got some dedicated piste skis last season so that has justified my purchase of some shiny new Soul 7s because..... Well, I like the colour!

I need new ski trousers, my beloved Oakleys are ripped and worn out. Mehhhh. I love them so much.
I also would like some new goggles for sunny conditions and I'd realllllly like new skis but I don't need them.
I want some Volkls with super-grippy edges *sigh*

here's my original report on them... "the hype is true"

There is only one bad thing.
Sometimes I realise how many years I've wasted NOT having got them before... and the wasted money on other boots, foam liners (Sorefoot), and even an Intuition liner.

@Meltus, got a pair of them in April from freezepro. They’re great and I can’t wait to get back on them.
New gear for this season will be goggles - something that plays nicely with sweet igniter helmet. Otherwise virtually everything was replaced over the last season or this summer sales.
Just got Patagonia powslayer bibs in their website sale, fortunate to get a £200+ reduction. I like their kit, it fits me well and I like their values/ ethos but £500 rrp for salopettes is rather a lot...

Worth keeping an eye o TK Maxx
They had Level brand gloves last season for a 3rd of the retail price

I'm sorely tempted by some Black Crows Camox Birdies
