FS: 188 Armada Bubba. Un playful powski se vende!
Selling with barely used Salomon STH2 WTR 13 binders for $425 +ship.
Would be willing to unmount and sell flat for $299.
One and only mount for a 316 BSL. And for those you that don’t know the STH2 has plenty of range ~28mm which means you will most likely not need to remount unless your feet are smaller than Trumps hands or larger than Hillary’s @$$.
I bought these last year for a pilgrimage to Hokkaido and they did not disappoint! These have seen a total of five days all in deep, dry, Japow .
With 132mm underfoot and plenty of rocker in the tip and tail the are highly recommended for anyone lucky enough to be hitting a deep destination (Japan, Heli, Cat, Alta, JH) this winter. They also have camber underfoot which gives you a semblance of control on the groomed runouts back to the lift. I know a guy at Targhee who uses these as his daily driver but It is prolly not the best tool for you low snow folks in Colorado, Cali (‘cept every 7 years or so), and on the LEast Coast.
Do not over think this, buy these skis, surf deep pow. It’s that simple.

Just bumping because I like the stickers in your wax/stoke zone!

Here is a nice video showing the performance of the Bubba. Bubba is from 0:00-1:25ish
From 1:12 to 1:25, you can see how good they are in untracked. Before that shows soft groomed, chop, and the deep side groomers stashes in Japan. And transitioning between resort pow conditions.

Super playful ski, but not squirrely at all.

Bump to update number of days used - now 6 (5 in Japow last year and today at PCMR) and for price increase to $375 for skis and bindings. That's right, after strapping these on again I realized that those fluffy flakes falling from the skies are not falling prices but Pow-flation!
For those not familiar with what is happening in Utah (and the Western US in general) right now, well it's straight up nuking...which isn't surprising, I guess, since Trump just pulled us out of the Intermediate-Range Nuclear Forces (INF) Treaty. Those front-side carvers you are rocking are not going to cut it. It's last call and that hot blond is showing no interest...and she's way too much work anyhow...it's time to pull the fatty...your bros are too drunk to notice and you KNOW she's a fun ride.
TL;DR - this Winter is going off, you need fatter skis.

Seems like it's 1998 all over again as these Bubba's have been impeached! Sold down the three rivers to a couple of bros from Pittsburgh.
