    Free skis (but with damage)

    Sad day for me, as I've been hoping against hope I could get these repaired, as they are one of my favorite oldies but goodies. Unfortunately, haven't gotten any good news from the assortment of shops I've gone to.
    I was careless and slammed the tip of one ski into a tree last jan, and it bent the shovel, so the camber is shot.

    2013 Volkl Mantra, dragon topsheets
    98mm waist
    177cm
    Mount is for 315 BSL

    Free to a good home, if you want rock skis or planks for a fence or Adirondack chair. Just pay shipping.

    (On a related note, if anyone is holding the same model 2013 volkl mantra, I'd definitely be interested if you're wanting to sell.)

    I have a pair, but a buddy is interested in them. I'll let you know if he changes his mind.

    Take a heat gun and heat the shovel up until it is hot to the touch, pad a ladder rungs with some towels, stick bent ski in and unbend. Voila!

    Or bend the other one to match so they are both rockered. Several mags experimented with this mod on XXLs back in the day.
