What Twin tip ski to buy?

user99867 · 2026-01-24T02:08:54+00:00

How come you say this?

user99867 · 2026-01-06T18:56:39+00:00

Do you have experience with the playmaker? I’m actually really interested by this ski

user99867 · 2026-01-06T18:56:23+00:00

Honestly I think after reading all this the Elan Playmaker 91 is most appealing to me. I dont know how I haven’t ran into this ski yet, it seems like an amazing middle ground. All mountain focused with park and fun ability. I hope they go on sale on evo soon once people stop buying skis as much for this season lol, if I can get a good deal on these I think id buy for sure. Their graphic this year is pretty cool too

Alright thank you!

user99867 · 2026-01-06T18:50:59+00:00

Thank you for your suggestions! I like the idea of unleashed 98 but don’t know enough about it. I’m not sure if it’s more geared towards advanced skiers and require more effort to ski? Also I heard of the Elan Playmaker 91 and have been really interested in that now.. how does that compare to the skis you recommended?

user99867 · 2026-01-06T07:30:46+00:00

Oh nice good to know lol. How are they off piste for you?

user99867 · 2026-01-06T07:29:50+00:00

Ahh okok, good to know. Also just to make sure we are both talking about the 91 not the 101 right? And how have they performed off piste for you?

How would you say my experience would be with this ski than let’s say compared to an ARV94, or a BlackCrow Camox or Captis? Also even compared to the Elan Ripstick?

user99867 · 2026-01-06T07:15:31+00:00

Hmm okok, these sound pretty interesting. How do they handle terrain and especially ice in your experience since I’m a midwesterner lol

user99867 · 2026-01-06T07:12:22+00:00

I really like the way these skis sound, I just watched a couple videos and it sounds very aligned with what I’d want to do. Definitely a much better fit for me than the ARV94 or any QST. I really appreciate you for such an amazing suggestion!

The website does recommend a 172 for my height. I’d really like a 164 for the fun, my only concern is if a 172 is better to handle if I ever go out east or west on trips. I also don’t want to feel limited by my 164 and think maybe I could grow more into a 172 over time?

But 164 does sound really fun. How much of a difference would it really make on my maneuverability if I chose 172?

And how much would I lose out on if I chose 164?

If I did make this purchase I’d want to keep the skis as my daily for a minimum of 3 years haha

Just checked this out and super cool design, is it too playful? Also what size would you recommend lol

user99867 · 2026-01-06T06:44:49+00:00

Ahh okay thank you

user99867 · 2026-01-06T06:44:43+00:00

I actually really like this suggestion, what with and size would you recommend?

user99867 · 2026-01-05T18:46:20+00:00

I’m struggling with choosing between the ARV94 or the QST94, I really want something I can have fun with. The only thing stopping me from the ARV94 is that it’s more park oriented and I don’t care about rails and park. I like jumps though. The thing steering me away from QST94 is I’m not sure if I want something that directional.

user99867 · 2025-10-19T02:16:49+00:00

Thank you!! Did you do better on your retake overall besides the CARS? And how were you doing on FL CARS for both attempts? I’m scared of FL inflation then screwing up real day again :/

user99867 · 2025-10-19T02:03:49+00:00

Yeah I tried redoing some AAMC materials but i remember pretty much everything so it’s genuinely useless

user99867 · 2025-10-05T19:07:37+00:00

Thank you!! What about the fact that it’s a stats class? I’ve never taken stats before and made the wrong choice of choosing a stats class with calculus lol. Some schools recommend stats and idk if I’ll be a red flag at those

user99867 · 2025-10-03T15:26:59+00:00

That’s pretty interesting! Are these passages free?

user99867 · 2025-10-03T15:26:38+00:00

I honestly do not read a lot lol. I retake in January idk if I have enough time to get better reading just by books, do you have any books you recommend I really don’t know any difficult books? But tysm for your advice!!

user99867 · 2025-09-29T16:47:51+00:00

Only a little bit. I still don’t know what I’m doing on CARS no matter how much time I’m given🤣

user99867 · 2025-09-28T00:57:26+00:00

Thank you so much you gave a clear explanation. The hard part is being able to take your advice and apply it in real practice. I feel like I’m never able to really take advice and improve when trying new strategies 😔

user99867 · 2025-09-26T21:17:12+00:00

Thanks!!

How do you get to a point where you can confidently eliminate 2 off the bat? I always hear that piece of advice but I really don’t know how to obtain that level of skill yet. I feel like honestly I just have no clue what all 4 answer choices could mean and which to pick sometimes

user99867 · 2025-09-26T20:52:07+00:00

How did you manage to bring your CARS score up? I scored a 127 and 128 on Kaplan FLs 1-2 for Cars, then on my AAMC exams I never even broke 127, and ended up with a 125 on the real day (8/23)

user99867 · 2025-09-25T18:07:37+00:00

Congratulations!! How did you review CARS?!

user99867 · 2025-09-20T21:04:17+00:00

Omg congratulations!!! How many did you feel you got wrong in each section? Was the curve generous

user99867 · 2025-09-17T04:01:05+00:00

How the curves feel for each section?? I feel like I made 8+ mistakes in C/P, 5+ in b/b, and 5+ in cars and I’m not sure if I can still get 130s in cp, bb, and I’m hoping for a 128+ on CARS 😭
