    free fat skis, powder plus!!!

    If you are an umpa-lumpa (and where did the thread with the umpalumpa song go??)

    I have just been given 7 pairs of 150 powder plus skis and I can't sell em. Anyone have kids that want a "first pair of fat skis" I also have 4 pairs of 165 that can be $50 obo. (less pics, stories, beer, etc)

    all are in great shape (how much damage can someone that skis a 150cm or 165 powder ski do???), drilled once for salomon demos,

    just cover shipping from banff (usually $40/pair, $60/2 pairs, Free for banff pickup, beer "donations" accepted)

    if you want some demo bindings, DIN 10, fat brakes I can sell ya them for $50 shipped.




    like this only in better shape and free.....

    maybe some franken spatulas for kids????

    come on- dont make me take this to epic ski....


    150 PP
    1) SCUTSKI GF (paid, but no pics )
    2)planergraders kid (all paid)
    3) oftpiste grom (paid)
    4) cooltsi's (paid)
    5)Mex (will pick this weekend)
    6) Mod yodler (paid in full)
    7)Singel (will pickup, in 10 days)
    In line:

    Damian Sanders is first in line.


    165 PP
    1) dedmontons GF (will pickup)
    2) valley girl
    3)
    so you want a pair and are on "the list"

    paypal me the shipping for the skis $40 and I mail em to you

    do you need bindings/fat brakes? $50 more

    also include your mailing address

    daveandb@telusplanet.net

    also please keep giving the skis to other maggots with kids. I dont have kids, and dont want kids, but active kids are WAY better then non-active kids. Need someone heathly to take care of me as I get older

    Oh ya, once you have paid, please post this. It is hard to cross reference email address vs "real" names vs TGR names

    If you are wise, you'll buy these from me

    What do you get when you click into these?
    Fresh stashes of powder in the trees.
    Since 1991 skis have gotten terribly fat?
    What do you think will come of that?

    mtnlion,

    I'll confer with the GF on this (I just picked her up a Fission AR off SAC for $65 shipped, so she'll be spending much less on a jacket than anticipated), and get back to you. Tentative dibs on... a pair of 150s with binders.

If someone could make a jacket of those three things it would no doubt be the most popular and prized item in all of your closets.

    I'm down for a set as well. 13 year old daughter could use a pair. If anyone needs a drop point in my area I can receive a second set.

    OK, all PM's replied to, now it is up to you.

    if you are on the list PAY UP sucka. (wow I'm way to old to be gangsta')

    if you where just drunk and getting free stuff, stand down, and let someone else have this that will use it.

    thanks guys who have paid. include your mailing info, and what you are paying for too please (skis, bindings, shipping, beer, etc)

    Put me on the wait List for some 150s.. They would be for my 13 year old daughter, and would be her first fat ski.

    Thanks!

    Bummer, missed this yesterday. If you come across more such stuff (pow stuff for my 14 year-old mini ripper who only weighs 100lbs), I'd be grateful.

    Yes, yes I do. I know they aren't free, but considering I'm including a binding, I still think it's a pretty good deal.

    Thanks for the free publicity Mntlion.

    mine are all gone, and shipped. Extra bonus stuff in the boxes too.

    PLEASE post some pics of GF or kids getting stoked on the new toys. Also pass on the good Karma, and give them away to others when you are done with them

    and bump for T0L0C0's skis. They are damn close to free and have bindings

    bump for props to mntlion

    Like the title sez,

    Here's a bump to say thanks to a cool guy for a very cool deal. Mntlion has been a ton of help to me on a number of occasions and is always ready to lend a hand.

    He even sent a pair of poles and the "My Life is Better than Your Vacation" sticker which will go proudly next to "change for a nickel?" on the adventuremobile. The skis are in great shape, clamps perfect, and it all got shipped in a timely manner which is saying a lot since these were FREE skis!

    When I get the groms out on them I will post up for sure. Thanks a bunch mntlion. Beers on me if we ever are in the same place at the same time. If not, holler if I can do anything for you.
