FS: DPS Lotus 138 R0 F3 192cm

FS: 192cm DPS Lotus 138, rocker 0, flex 3 -- these are the very first year of production, and have a lower & more gradual rocker than later years, plus a much more pointy Spatula-esque tip. Drilled 1.5X for Salomon alpine in the 912/STH/997 etc. pattern -- once at (-1) for 335 BSL, and once for 315 BSL reusing the original toe mounts, which placed the 315 boot center line at a little bit ahead of the marked centerline on the ski.

I bought these a couple years ago here:

Skis are in about the same condition as there. There are some topsheet chips, base & edge scratches, but no work needed to make them skiable -- scrape off the storage wax and go.

$200 for the skis, plus shipping, or pick up in Reno/Tahoe. I am also probably heading towards Monterey CA in the next 3-4 weeks, and could bring them with if you're somewhere along the way.

PM if interested.

This is an old picture of all the rockered skis that (at the time) Mrs. C. and I had. The Lotus 138s that I am selling are the ones that are #7 from the left (or #6 from the right), with black bindings on them, and are the ones immediately to the left of the bamboo sidewall "Rocker 1" Lotus 138s with Marker Griffons. For rocker comparison sake, this is what the photo shows (from left to right):

182 Salomon Czar
186 Volant Spatula
192 Black Diamond Zealot
191 Lhasa Pow
