    What the hell is this supposed to mean? 108cm, sweet.
    Umbrellas are for fags.

    They're approach skis, they're like snowblades for snowboarders.

    Or something.

    k2 approach skis

    These are short skis (with skins) which allow a snowboarder deeper access into the backcountry. They are short enough to be strapped onto your backpack while your descending on your board and not interfere with your movement. These skis are WAY better than snowshoes or postholing. Your snowboard boot fits right into the freeheel binding....

    Are they from this season or last? Do you have any pictures of 'em? Why are you dumping them? I really need to get off the slow shoes and pick up a split board, but this might be a short-term fix. Thx-

    I've seen a few guys on these things. Seems like a good system.......

    I wish they still made them. They'd be really handy for the SAR guys I work with who either carry snowshoes or make their new friends posthole in thier skintracks.

    These are from a few seasons ago... I believe they are the model of the last year they made them. They work perfectly and skins are in great shape. I do have pics, if you'd like to see 'em just send me your email address by PM. I am selling because I want to learn how to telemark this year (something new).

    The bindings are NOT for clicker step in boots. They are for normal snowboard boots.
