WTB Skis for beginner friend-

[I've seen black diamonds!]

New thread to avoid clutter of the old one:

Friend is 5'11, 160.

Looking for something a bit over 170 with a 90ish waist. Bindings included is plus. So is cheap. Front Range pick up is good too.

Something like a 173 Blizzard Bushwacker.

Bump....

How about an almost new pair of 170cm Blizzard Cheyennes (the women's version of the Bushwacker) with STH2's.

[I've seen black diamonds!]

^^^^That might work. Price?

[utagonian]

$285+ shipping

I'll check with my friend. Send me some pics if you can.

Want a free pair of old beater 175cm Salomon Pocket Rockets?
My pair is after they changed its name to "TenEighty Gun", but it's same as Pocket Rocket except graphics.
175cm, 122-90-115, twintip, foam core.
It has same graphics pictured at https://www.skimag.com/gear/salomon-1080-gun-2006

I figure beginners can slide around on a free beater ski, until they figure out what performance characteristics they like in a ski...and then later they can buy a better ski after they progress their skills.

I've got some Blizzard Magnum 8.0CA in 172cm. Mounted w Griffon for 305 BSL. Great condition.

ISBD I think you need to douche your PM box. (I don't have skis for your friend, but this was your top thread in the forum so easiest to post to).

Waiting to hear from my friend. Utagonian, sorry it's been slow. Turns out buddy was off on a climbing trip for a few days.

Found a pair locally. Thanks, everyone, for your time.
