I recently read mention that the "European style" is to run "whatever" ski boot on the highest level ski. That in contrast with an American preference to wear the most "advanced" ski boot on any assortment of "lesser" skis.
As the selection for both types are so wide, I can not form an opinion on the claim.
BUT
I would wonder if any of us have pulled out our "obsolete" skis and given them a critical review when compared to our "latest and greatest infatuation". I mean a critical review!
I take out the K2 710s EVERY SPRING. I find they ski exactly like they always have. No surprises, and only a single short coming.
I boot out on them, often in a spectacular way.
This season, I intend to revive both the Volkl G3 and the G4 stuck in the attic
I'll let you all know how it goes ;-)
