WTB: Your Wife's Old Beater 100mm Skis - in Tahoe
Great day out there today! ...but my friend fell and hurt her neck. Then she said those fateful words, "I don't think I like powder." She's an advanced/expert skier on groomers and is pretty fearless even on ungroomed, but is riding some 65mm east coast race skis. She just moved here and the skis are straight-up holding her back.
160-171 length women's skis. 98-103mm seems right for an everyday around here (but correct me if I'm wrong.) Some tip and tail rocker preferred but beggars can't be choosers.
Whatcha got?

What's your price point? Lots of women's skis on the Reno craigslist. Also, check shops that have used gear sections like the Tahoe Sports Hub in Truckee or NUTS in Tahoe City. That said, I might have a Volkl Kiku that my lady would part with, it's old but definitely not a "beater" and is in great shape.

161 Nordica nemesis. $50 plus shipping. No bindings.
Battle lines being drawn, nobody’s right if everybody’s wrong, old people speaking their minds, getting so much resistance from behind.

Thanks everyone! I'll work with Tara today/tomorrow, send her this thread, and see if she can get into one of these. I'll also post which ones she's saying no to asap, so others can jump in.
Those seem about right. Could you post or PM pics?

^Hey, thanks to all for the replies. Looks like she fell backward into some pow sticks, so no need to order.
OP is out, feel free to pillage offers on this thread. Hopefully some sort of other match has been made...otherwise I just added more crap to the interwebs.
