    WTB: Spring Touring Rig

    Looking for a ski:

    178-180 length
    88-92 underfoot
    Moderate/tiny bit of tip rocker, trad camber underfoot
    Traditional Sidecut in the 18 - 22m range
    Lightish but not at the expense of skiability
    Damp

    Would like it mounted with a brakeless tech binding like a speed radical.

    Haven't been a big fan of Blizzards in the past, too much torsional stiffness with too aggro of a tune. And I was hoping to get a set up with skis/bindings and maybe skins for around $400

    Well the tune is pretty fkn easy to tweak so don't hang up on that.

    Understood on the price point.

    Carry on.

    184cm Fischer Transalp 88 for sale on TAY for $180. Ad is 4 days old. They may have been swooped. 4cm longer than your range. My wife has the 163cm, loves 'em. Very nice ski. Light but not ridiculously so. Smooth Fischer ride. Great PNW May-July touring ski.

    More rocker than I think LVS wants. More than I'd want anyway.

    I've got 188 Bros mounted with plum guides on sollyfit plates. Should have some skins for them somewhere. I can also throw in another set of plum guides minus a broken toe piece. Package deal for $180 shipped.
