Having recently tested some 2011 skis, I am saving my pennies to buy a pair .... does anyone know when I can expect to see them on sale? I assume online will be the first place?
It almost seams daft that I have had them on my feet and can't buy them! 
Cheers

Well when hunting new boots for my daughter the shops seemed agreed the new season stock would be appearing around September, don't know if boots and skis are on the same timetable though.

Why would you want to buy 2011 skis? The '10 ones are just starting to come in at decent prices.

2011 is just a number.
Get a top end 2010 model in the end of season sales. And if your that good to really really need a 2011 model, then you probably realise it is just marketting.

2011 stuff will be generally available from september some shops take in stock a little later, some stuff is already out there depending on what it is and where it is

Kersh, I'm kind of with brian on this, but then again if you really liked what you skied then crack on. I'd have thought the easiest thing would be to e-mail the company whose skis you liked direct to ask them and ensure you can be first in line?

Maybe I should just buy some 09/10 skis. I'm after a pair of Salomon Tornado Ti skis in 173. I know the Tornado was changed for this year, are there any changes apart from the graphic for 10/11.
When I went out on the 10/11 ski a couple of weeks ago, they were just great for me. The last thing I want to fo it buy the 09/10 ski to find they behave differently.
Cheers

Kersh, They are the same from next year, the only change last year was they stiffined them up and amended the tip.
But graphices etc for 2010.11 will be the same

You know it makes sense.
|
Thanks. Fattes13, I skied the 08/09 Tornado Ti and the revised model seamed a lot more stable and easier to use despite them being stiffer. I know they also widened the middle of the ski as well as altering the tip.
I'll have a look around and see what's available in the sales.
Cheers

Otherwise you'll just go on seeing the one name:

Kersh, The width change in the middle is quite small and the reason they would seem more stable is the extra stifness.
If you look at the older model you will see 2 titanum strips near the side of the ski but when you look at the newer model you will see a sheet of titanuim.
The changes where designed to make the ski more stable particulary at high speed. Know allot of people using them and they all love them and all of them say they can tell the diffrence betwen the two models with this years being more stable.

Cheers Bob.
If I wait till August but am basically looking for a quality all mountain intermediate ski, should I still get what I'm after?
