These Zipfits may have been the best ski purchase I’ve ever made. All of a sudden boots I’ve struggled with getting fit and aligned for over a year (RS 130) have become just awesome. For the first time in years I feel like right footers don’t need to be manufactured. They’re also warm and very comfortable for the level of performance they offer. They're harder to get in than the stock liners but small price to pay. Warm too.
Foam seemed to make less sense for me as my track record getting things right with boots on the first try is really bad.

I really like the colors! Enjoy!View attachment 33982
Mine are the smaller ones, on the right. My first skis! 2016-17 Blizzard Quattros, newly mounted IQ bindings. Yay!
Found these at a garage sale. Barely used from a ski instructor. $125. Bases and tops are in great shape. I think I scored. They are 174, but that is probably about right for me at 5'8" 160# and upper intermediate. Haven't skied this ski yet, but I know I can get my money back if they don't work out. Given the other skis I liked this year, I think they are going to rock. Wish I could try them now.

Um.....you scored! Happy for you! I have the SR100’s in a 174 and they’re SMOOOOTH.Just an update: I have skied my garage sale SR 95s and am very happy with my purchase. These things love speed and do it smoothly.
Finally got these mounted up. Looking forward to taking them out this weekend.

I have a set in 184. My favorite not-sure-what-the-hell-the-day-will-bring ski. I’ll probably buy another pair before the season is over.
I skied my Vantage 90's for the first time last weekend locally in PA.... great versatility and fun, but not the best ski for those slopes or when it got warm and heavier... really looking forward to skiing them somewhere more appropriate!

I have fatter skis for when it gets warm and heavier but I not having skied mine yet I was wondering why you felt they weren't right for your area? I ski in western mass and Vermont mainly so I was just curious since our conditions are probably similar yeah?
In heavy stuff, I think I'd have preferred a smaller ski. But now that you mention it, I have no idea what's best for heavy stuff. Until fairly recently, I just didn't ski it; So something to figure out I guess. It could also be partly that it was just a tired day for me... I quit around lunch time, and felt like the skis were a lot of work in that stuff.
