    Sick Birds and Bishop Bombers

    185 cm Sick Birds with Bishop Bombers.
    Skis have usual topsheet and base scratches, but no core shots. I probobally have 20 days on the skis.
    Bindings have roughly 30 days on them. I've had no issues with the bindings. Leashes will stay on the bindings.
    I mounted the skis with the 2nd ski kit and also have an extra 2nd ski kit that I can sell.
    Skis have been drilled once with current setup.
    Was looking for $425, but will take an offer. Would prefer a local pick up (Denver) but can ship too.

    PM sent re: 2nd ski kit. Also may be interested in the binders only if you can find a buyer for the sickbirds that doesn't want the bombers.

    Thanks, man. I assume the buyer will want the binders, but if he/she doesn't want the extra ski kit, I'm your man. Recently scored some bombers and a 2nd kit, but strongly contemplating throwing another kit on a third ski. If I can get 'em at a bit of a discount form retail, I'm all over 'em. Keep me posted.

    From my experience with 189 Hippy's and demo'ing 185 sick birds
    Sickbird = Snappier out of the turn- not as soft a tip as the hippy. Quicker transitions due to lower swing weight (hippy has massive tip). Hippy is a lot more damp. Sickbird skis shorter than Hippy (by more than the 4cm)

    In my opinion the Sick Birds are a stiff ski. I don't know enough about the Hippies to give a comparison.

    Which model year are these? the first year was the SickBird and the next was the SickBird WRS 2 years ago... Dropped over a pound and kept the stiffness

    Inquiring minds want to know...

    I'm still waiting, someone else might or might not be buying them, or something but I'll definitely be buying if the other deal doesn't go through. So nope they're definitely spoken for.

    These are the 1st generation Birds.
    "Name Taken" has first grabs.
