Thanks for the recs, all! I'll check 'em out.
I'm headed to Sapporo & Niseko for the first time this winter. This thread has been a great help--thanks to everyone!
Anyone have recommendations for guides, cat, or heli operations in Niseko?...
Ah, what a great find! I have the 98 Wren at 184cm, and it's a phenomenal ski. Same topsheet. I'd love to try these 108s out. Hope someone here is able to snag these.
Bump for the upcoming season!
Stiffer than you're looking for, but worth offering up: Hawx 130 XTD Pro in 26.5 (shell is 26/26.5). They're in very good shape. Catch and release from here--didn't fit my feet.
$100+ship
No bites yet! Yeah, you can have 'em. I sent you a PM.
BUMP with price drops. Lupos are free if you come pick them up in SF!
I'm not sure, since I bought them used. My guess is 10-20. But I never skied them myself. Happy to post more pics if it'd help.
305 on the Hawx, 307 on the Lupo.
Looking to clear out some gear. Local pickup in SF, but I'm happy to ship on the buyer's dime.
1. Men's Atomic Hawx Prime XTD 130 - 26.5 - $150 + ship
These are in very good shape. I bought them...
I have a pair of the blue ones, 120 flex, in 26.5 that are a bit beat but still fully functional. I can't stand them and don't use them anymore. Any use to you?
I gotcha, maybe:
Lange XC 70 23.5
Rossignol Soul 7 156 mounted with Tyrolia Attack suitable for small people
hit me up if you're interested and I can get you details.
Good to know! Please someone take these I don't want to throw them away but they can't stay here anymore :p

What year are these? I'm not sure. They've got..3?..mounts. 184s. Free if you (or anyone else) wants to pay for shipping from CA.
I fk'n love camo, so I'll take 'em. PMed again.
In case anyone is interested, I'm going to buy these skis and put Casts on them. Winter can't come soon enough.
I sent you a PM about these--definitely interested.

Anyone want these Mantras? They're 184, killer topsheets. Given to me by a mag a few years ago, and I had Hammerheads mounted on them. The other mounts are for Markers...maybe?
edit: in SF or...
Sent! Great work!
Alright, OP wants the hammerheads and a South Lake mag may want the Mantras. Please stop sending me PMs :) If the Mantras go up for grabs again, I'll post here.
I have some hammerheads mounted to mantras. They’ll work for 26.5. Beer + ship for just the bindings of you want them.
Skis are free to pick up in San Francisco or South Lake Tahoe for any other...
Anyone have some low-din Pivots for a mid-90 width ski?
I’m in for 10!
March is too far out to forecast. Could be ugly, could get some snow. Ski Heavenly if you want some views of the lake. Otherwise, Kirkwood. If it does snow, don’t hang around nursing a hangover—get...
Anyone got advice for mounting pin bindings? I've mounted up a handful of pivots and aaatacks without much trouble. But someone at a shop was telling me about how much trickier pin bindings...
Whoops, They’re in South Lake.
Not mine, but there’s a pair of 182 Belafontes on Truckee/Reno Craigslist. https://reno.craigslist.org/spo/d/stateline-moment-belafonte-backcountry/7064682967.html
I have a pair of 110s—pm sent
I’d be in for the Pivots off the Shiros if you decide to split. I’ll PM.
You should definitely buy these. Fantastic skis!

Corbett’s had a Black Friday sale where they got pretty cheap (relatively)—paid something like $415 usd for them. I bet a lot of people here did the same.

Does anyone use use the Billy Goat (non-tour layup) as a touring ski? How manageable do you find them on the way up?I got a cheap older pair and am thinking of throwing Shifts on them for short tours...
Yeah, I bought a bunch of their snow study tools. Shipping was $16 for about 6 small items. The whole order still ended up being a lot cheaper than I could have done otherwise.
Hopefully the order...
Deathwishes hold well in hardpack, but east coast boilerplate is a different ballgame. I think I’d be hesitant on them if it’s real EC ice.
It’s intimidating but not too hard, even with just the paper template. Practice on a 2x4 until you’re comfortable. I actually print templates on a transparency—makes it easier to center everything.

Solid deal right there.
PM sent. I'll be up in Tahoe this weekend and can grab them.
Bumping this in the hopes more people hear Billy Strings. He's coming to Squaw for WinterWonderGrass in March.
His sound guy livestreams every show here: http://mixlr.com/billy-streams/
I have an impreza. The clearance is pretty low, and definitely noticeable in snow and rutted out roads. That's my one big complaint, but it generally does fine for me around Tahoe.
As for the...
Mounted some fucking skis today. I'm pumped to get these guys out there. Just need snow.

What size are the boots?
I had luck getting a pair of AFDs from Rossignol—emailed them at inforossiusa@rossignol.com.
If it's just a matter of needing someone in the US to receive and reship to you, I can do that for you.

I also have a pair of the blues, 2016. Drilled once for pivots at 305bsl, if anyone else is looking. In pretty good shape. I’d probably do $200+shipping flat.
