    187 Praxis GPO, veneer topsheet, with Wardens - $400

    Hate to do this as I really love these skis, but times change and I want to fill this spot in my ski quiver with something else. For sale are a pair of 187 Praxis GPOs with wood veneer topsheet. These have 1.5 mounts at the toe. They originally had STH2s which share the rear two toe holes. Have 2 mounts at the heel. All 6 unused holes are plugged with chopped fiberglass and G-Flex epoxy, and the wood veneer topsheet has a top coat with System Three Clearcoat Epoxy for added durability (Hole plugs and epoxy work done by a previous owner, thanks Thom).


    The current mount is for a 305 mm BSL at -1cm from the recommended line. The Wardens have some adjustment both directions and are in great shape.


    Bases, edges, and topsheet are all in great condition. Very minimal scratches and topsheet chipping.


    Selling for $400 with the Wardens, or $300 without. Strong preference towards a local CO sale, but can figure out shipping if you pay.

    Thanks, the pictures really don't do the veneer justice either. They look so good in person.

    Holy shit, that's beautiful. If it actually snowed here anymore I'd be all over it. GLWS.
    No longer stuck.

    Too bad they're not 192s... GPOs are great skis. Good luck with the sale.

    Buddy has this same rig, down to length, veneer, inlay and clamps.
    He paid $500 two years ago in local sale.
    And he loves them
    I already have a pair of flex five 192s or would be all over these

    I would have been all over these if I hadn't picked up a local pair 2 days ago...same build minus the classic GPO graphic.

    Lots of nibbles, nothing concrete yet. Someone step up and get some great skis!

    Great skis, but y'all knew that. I went to their baby brothers - 182s 'coz of my tight terrain bias. I miss the slightly longer turn radius of the 187s as soon as it opens up a bit, but that's OK.

    About the mount point ... I reused two (four?) toe holes which put me at -.6cm for a 296 BSL, so yeah, they're right at -1 for a 304 BSL. I can't recall if I located the heels for my 296 BSLs which would mean you'd could stretch to about a 308mm BSL. It's been a while, but I'm sure @Dub2 can check for ya.

    Hope this helps. Some maggot is in for a sweet ski. Praxis with veneer for the win.
