    WTB: Silverton Beater Skis...

    I posted another WTB for some Line Opus skis, but not much traffic on it, so thought I'd throw this up.


    I'm looking for a pair of fat skis-with some type of platform binding that will work with my A.T. boots.

    Ski waist width around 116 or so, something turny, but can hold an edge too- not a big mountain comp ski.

    Length-wise, something around a 185.

    Cheap is best (sub $300), so kind of a beater ski rig- I'll only be on these a handful of days per season.

    Skis I'm looking at:
    Line Opus
    Liberty Double Helix
    K2 Pontoons or Hellbents
    Armada JJs
    Bent Cheaters
    Atomic Auto 117s
    Others...?

    Bindings- Need to be a small/medium for a 306mm boot- preferably some old Dukes or Barons, or Marker F12s....

    Lemme know if you've got an old pair of fatties laying around you want to sell off.

    188 Rossignol Super 7s, 2013 year mounted with small duke EPF. They have some pretty big core shots but edges are still in tact. 117mm under foot.

    Thanks, but kind of looking for something that's already mounted. Its a pain in the ass for me to get skis mounted around Montrose- I'd have to drive to Telluride probably to mount some Markers since no shops around have jigs for those bindings.

    If you change your mind, I’ll be in Montrose this Friday the 25th.

    PM sent, still weighing my options. The 117s might work if I don't need to remount them...

    Still looking... I'd prefer a lighter 2 piece AT compatible binding to something like a duke.

    I'm kinda being picky, but unguided season at Silverton doesn't start till March 20th, so I've got some time....

    I want something fat, but something that'll also work skiing wind-chalked chokes leading into steep zones w/pow below...-so, something that'll hold an edge.

    Bump- narrowing down my top pics to:

    Atomic Automatic 117s-- 186ish size
    Armada JJs
    ON3P Billygoats

    Prefer skis to have some kind of burly AT compatible binding-preferably, a two piece design. I don't need a binding that'll enable me to tour. My boots are Scarpa Maestrale RS.
