New Skis! Back in the Stable again... Praxis Protests

My Protest arrived today so I attempted to take photos with beautiful finishings like @Ron posted above.
The rug on the floor is played by Sadie the dog. The door wasn’t as easy.

I agree she is stoked seeing me happy.
I’m lucky to have her.

My MVP94s came yesterday! Custom top sheet of one of my paintings. Amazing how much of the detail, including brushstrokes, show up on the skis. Now to find bindings that are both functional and match the colours!

Will be the first time out on the Protest. Will be a few hours ahead of the storm moving in.
Groomers it is

Not the conditions I was expecting but conditions the Protest can handle.
I love them already, thanks @Ron for starting this thread.

I like your top sheets better then @Ron ‘s. Plus his don’t match his jacket. He really should dump his and get some like yours.

@jmills115 where did you mount the Protests? I went with -5mm I figured It was a safe bet. Its fun to ski that a little forward for that optimal surfy feel.

I went -1.5.
On the site next door, the most vocal users went -1 or -2.
I read and contacted a couple other users that mounted -.5 and they were happy there.
Maybe the consensus should be -.5 to -2

binding: I’d say a Pivot raw or gold. Will enhance, rather than distract from, your beautiful artwork.

I ended up with black Markers on them - my boots are black with sort of copper coloured buckles, so all together looks very sharp. They are also fantastic skis - I am enjoying the heck out of them!
