    I haven’t missed my 196 protests much — because of my 191 billy goats.

    I’ll take them if you are serious. Can pick them up at BBI.

    Goats sold to a local mag. Cease and Desist paid for. Searching for STH2 if anyone is holding.

    Feel free to enjoy this thread or use to pimp your 191 Goats.

    I will miss the goats.

    Common sense. So rare today in America it's almost like having a superpower.

    So, funny story...

    BBI Alpy reminded me how much the goats are LITERALLY the best pow ski for Alpental/PNW Mank.

    3 days of mental himming and hawing resulted in...

    That when I went to hand said Goats to another very worthy mag... I couldn't do it and said, dude let me buy them back. I made a mistake.

    LOLZ.

    Forgive me Capra, lord of the goats, for I have sinned, doubting your supremacy in all things wet, steep, manky and deep. I will sin no more. As an act of attrition I will festoon you with Stickers acquired at BBI, as Father Flowing has commanded and never have an impure thought about other 118mm skis again. Amen.

    14 pages of "I told you so". LS, it sounds like you are relying on someone else telling you these are great skis for powder, do you not have the ability to decide for yourself? Don't want to read all 14 pages, but that seems weird as shit.

    The look on your face when you tried to hand them over was heart breaking. I didn't even get to fondle the damn things! Your white knuckle grip and despair in the eyes... I don't think I've ever felt so much pity for a grown man.

    This is such a beautiful romantic comedy. Man falls in love, man takes object of affection for granted, man nearly loses the love of his life, at the last minute man declares his undying love and wins the hearts and minds of all. You could have Hugh Grant play your part. I feel as though I would play a small part (Owen Wilson would play me), as I purchased Billy Goats from you like 3 or 4 years ago. They still are the object of my love and affection. I need a tissue........

    Too funny. After skiing with you a few times, I always fancied you a BG skier. After you saw the light, I thought our work was done. When you fell off the wagon, I had my doubts. Glad to see reason has prevailed. BTW, a quiver full on ON3P and Dynastar skis seems like a GREAT fit for you.
    In constant pursuit of the perfect slarve...

    End of Summer bump...

    Feeler...
    Talk me into selling my 191 bear paw Billygoats with Pivots.
    One mount (325 BSL), and even though Jackattack technically owned them before me, he didn't mount them so.... Two owners.
    While i wouldn't call them minty, they are fresh as hell, no base damage, and they have a fresh tune with a good PNW structure.
    I gave these a good run, but they just aren't my cup-o-tea for where, how and what I am skiing.
    I have a bourgeoning quiver, so trades are of no interest.
