I kind of enjoy the luxury of reading a lot of people's reviews on a certain ski before I think about demoing/buying. It seems like you can get a pretty good idea by reading around after the ski has been out long enough to generate a buzz around it.
I probably will never buy current year's model skis because it's so much more expensive at retail price. Is there a true advantage to buying the current year's skis, and does technology change fast enough in one year to make a difference, or do you think buying the current model is more about keeping up with the trends?
Also, if you really enjoy the current model of a particular ski, do you mind buying last year's, or do you consider it to be like buying a different ski altogether?
Curious to see how other ladies think about this.
