When I was in middle school in the 70's my dad got me my first pair of used skis from a friend of his. They were old Kneissl's probably late 60's early 70's. They came with short hard leather Kastinger boots that were too big for me. lol I delaminated the tips and edges after a season or two from jumping on icy SW Michigan small jumps. Next in junior high I got a brand new pair of cheap entry level Elan package skis. I proceeded to delaminate a tip my first time skiing on them. took them back to the local ski shop and they gave me a new pair. I proceeded to delam both tips on new set. Took them back and store manager ended up giving me a used pair of OLIN Mark IV's instead and I skied on those for many years before getting job at ski shop and moving up to dealer rep deal high end race skis.
