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)"Not all who wander are lost"

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...

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