    All sizes of Rossi S3 for $299 is pretty good. I'd be all over it if I hadn't heard such bad things about their base durability. To be fair, they've probably heard bad things about my durability, too.

    It isn't the durability (at least from my perspective), it's the bases being slow if under-waxed. I have to wax them more often than my other skis, which is an inconvenience, but something that can be dealt with. $299 is a smokin' deal for those.

    Yeah, they are plenty durable in the scratch resistant, core shot resistant manner of speaking, it just takes getting the right structure and loading up on hot wax.... they rule and that price makes me butt hurt about what I paid.
    Do I detect a lot of anger flowing around this place? Kind of like a pubescent volatility, some angst, a lot of I'm-sixteen-and-angry-at-my-father syndrome?

    fuck that noise.

    gmen.

    Don’t race. Leave that to the scorchers.

    189 Obsethed still available @ $369, 175/185 Chopsticks @ $389, 170 Goats @ $389. Some deals not as good as others, but worth the look.

    Man, that's great. Isn't that ski just a re-branded S7? Looks like it from the dims and pics.

    it's a rebranded Rossi Pro BC 110
    Women's version of S7
    S7 dimensions - 5 mm (i.e. 110 mm underfoot instead of 115 mm)

    Sweet deal
    Aggressive in my own mind

    ^^^ Strange, because REI won't ship Rossi to Canada, but they will ship Roxy. Those limitations seem so arbitrary.

    Thanks for the info.

    Even if shops ship to Canada I have the skis sent to Montana Shipping to avoid all of the ridiculous border fees.

    I both appreciate, and don't appreciate at all, the fact that you told me about this sale, pollydog.

    Trigger pulled on 186 S3's.

    I hummed, I hawed, I sacked up and went deeper into debt. All is well in the world.

    Keep checking. Their stock has been fluctuating. Two days ago they had the Obsethed, for example, in only 169. Then yesterday, all three sizes were available, as well as other skis/bindings that were OOS earlier in the week.
