Thread bump.
This past year has been a busy one. Work, home. The addition of 2.5 grandkids has not really left any time for extra curricular activities. I have not put any research into proper ski gear and in-fact, earlier this month was my first ski trip of the season.
Today, I stopped by a local thrift store and just could not pass on these. At $7.75, I figure I could not go wrong. I just finished adjusting the bindings and the bottoms could use some fresh wax. If they suck then I can drill them to the inside of the hangar as decorations.
Thoughts?
I know from my demo days, I am leaning towards an all mountain ski and zeroing in on the Völkl Mantra or Sole7 series. The demo lengths have ranged from 165-171CM at the shop so I am still trying to figure that part out. It’s vastly different from the days past. Technology, amazing developments in the sport.
