Several people have reached out via private message to offer help - Thanks! Will respond to all PMs later today. Really appreciate the help!

I'd like to buy this:

But they won't ship to Canada and I can't otherwise find it available (in this colour). ...

Managed to snag some 186s. My first Rossignols since the Bandit series.

I'm 5'10", 170 lbs. Directional skier. Consensus seems to be mounting -2 from recommended? Any thoughts? I did read the...

I’ll take these if you’re ok shipping to Canada. Lmk.

So I’ll be in Seattle this weekend. Any bars (or bike shops that serve beer) that might be showing the World Cup races?

I couldn’t decide between the M6 and M102. So I own both. Gun to my head? M6. I think.

Atomic Hawx XTD 120, size 24.5. Near new condition. Both toe boxes have been spot punched slightly for width. No other modifications. $350 plus cost of shipping from Calgary. Can deliver to...

Anybody willing to facilitate shipping these to Canada? Will happily kick in beer money for the trouble.

I will be in Fernie this weekend then back to Calgary. Happy to pick them up for you.

Put me next in line please.

I gifted myself some M102s for Christmas and ended up with something similar:

439992

Riding the lifts at Fernie today was great but cold. No first hand reports on the backcountry.

Well, shit. That sucks.

Sounds good. Responded to your PM.

I’d take the Intuitions if you’re willing to ship to Calgary.

My daughter is 13, 120 lbs and skiing DIN 5 on Marker Squire 11s. She’s made the jump to women’s skis: 156 Volkl Kenjas and similar length (can’t remember offhand) Blaze 106s.

Seconded!

Seconded. I demo’d the M6 and the K108. Was impressed with both. I’m buying the M6 and am serious thinking of replacing my current 105ish ski with the Katana.

I’m your twin. I used to use a KR2 Pro in a 24.5. The fit was great but something never felt quite right when I skied them. Flex, forward lean, ramp angle - dunno.

Now using a Tecnica Mach 1 130...

Seconded.

Skied mine a few days ago. Still awesome.

I’ll be back in for Tuesdays and maybe the occasional Thursday once January rolls around.

Really appreciate you organizing these!

I can likely make that work.

That was my first meetup - good times.

At the start of the third lap I was thinking I’d maybe be able to hang near the front until the finish but after the hill you guys were gone. Nice work!

Me too!

Just followed you. S S**** from ����

^^^ I’m in.

Another Hakka fan here. After using studless Hakkaks on my last 2 vehicles, I had a set of studded Hak 9 SUV put on my 4Runner today. Now looking forward to driving in some ugly conditions ...

Not asking for change for a nickel.

Payment sent. Thanks!

I mounted mine with first year Kingpins. The pins loosened on my first day, Marker replaced the toes, and zero issues since.

I bought these primarily for backcountry use but I like ‘em so much...

Good tip, but couldn’t do that today. Terrain closures prevented access to Bear traverse plus Bear Chair was down for a mechanical this morning.

Besides, mntlion needs to stick to green terrain...

That’s debatable.

Currently raining at the base. Looks like it’s snowing at the top of Elk chair.

Same here. Dunno why but ‘Mech’ really irritates me.

Weird. They won’t ship to Canada even though they’re IN Canada. :mad:

Looking for some advice - what current ski is roughly equivalent to the original Rossi S7?

I picked up a pair for my wife years ago and she loves the friggin’ things. Until last year, they were...

Hey anything - thanks for the info. Super helpful. Our flights are booked. Gonna stretch out the trip with 5 days at Niseko followed by 4-5 days at Hakuba. It’ll be the last week of January and...

Oops - the Xpro is larger volume than the Xmax, correct? If so, I’m out (was looking for a fit similar to the old Salomon Falcons).

Willing to ship to Canada?

Oh yeah - we aren’t looking for posh accommodations, nightlife, etc. We’re kinda past our dirtbagging phase but I’m not ruling it out.

I’m in the initial planning stages of a late Jan trip. I’ll have my wife and 12 year old with me. I’m leaning towards Niseko cause that sounds easiest for us Japan rookies. But it also sounds...

Ditto.

Thanks for the turns today. But I’m now disappointed you didn’t wear this outfit ...

I’d prefer a black zipper if that helps. I’m not fussed, though.

Happy to meet up but be warned I’ll be skiing with my 11 year old daughter. She’s fairly competent, though. Look for a kid dressed pretty much all in pink. I’m in a blue jacket, grey pants.

Thanks for the info. I’m committed to Fernie for Sat/Sun but will likely end up at Castle tomorrow.

I don’t know what the resort rental shop has but there’s a small shop at the hill called The Quest in Snow Creek Lodge. They sell Völkl, Salomon and Dynastar. They definitely rent Völkl but I don’t...

garryfromterrace - any updates from Castle? Thinking of skiing there Friday on the way to Fernie.

Thanks!
