WTB: Mid 90's resort ski (185+)+ FS: Armada Tracer 98 (188)

**s_curran** · 10-15-2021, 10:35 AM

Hi, I'm looking to replace my 2007 mantras that I bought here used 10ish years ago for 125 bucks (thanks to whomever that was, they provided much fun per dollar). The old Mantras are actually ok other than some delam on the tail, and the fact I'd like something longer.

I'm open to a few things, or even suggestions:

Fischer Ranger 99ti
Mantra m5 or m6
Fischer Ranger FR 94 or 102?
Stance 96
Rustler 9's
Bonafides
K2 mindbender ti
Maybe Nordica Enforcers?
Ripstick Black 106 (I know this is different from the others, but a different quiver approach)

Also, I have some good condition Tracer 98's for sale, maybe 300? mounted one time with shifts, skied maybe 10 days. Nice playful ski, especially for the weight, but more resort time means I need something stiffer for 210lbs of me.

What year are these? I'm not sure. They've got..3?..mounts. 184s. Free if you (or anyone else) wants to pay for shipping from CA.

I've got an Enforcer 93 in 186cm, drilled 1x, can be with or without Attack 13s. Dead mint. PM me if any interest.
I replaced with an E94 for this year.

Bump, pretty much exclusively looking for a ranger 99ti, or a 102fr now, happy to buy with bindings

Mid-90s, you say?

I might have some old K2 Extreme skis from the 1990s, absolutely demolished and like 296cm long that you can simply bolt your boots upon.

PM me if interested!

Yeah, pretty darn good shape if you ask me, I didn't really use them much, a few tours but only with a lot of snow, mostly resort tours to be honest, no base damage. Scuffs on the top, but just because they are glossy. Mounted with a shift at 315 BSL. Let me know if you want higher res or anything.
