    But Ellen kicks ass - if she had a beard it would be much more haggard. -Jer

    What makes the old Hellbent so desirable? And has anyone compared directly to Pontoons?

    This is actually the rarest, first version of the Hellbent. Shape was never made again.

    Adding to this, I have Gen1 Pontoons with Warden demo bindings in case anyone at Schweitzer wants to try them or A/B to the Hellbents.

    Also, if you are going to change the bindings I could use those old PXs for some skis for my FIL. Could also trade you some similar value/vintage bindings if desired.

    They look floppy and dumb in the lift line, but were so much fun to ski! Laid rails on groomers. In the era of traditional sidecut and no taper they slashed and were playful and fun, but could still charge. For a floppy soft ski I never found the speed limit on em.

    ski the trees,

    I've got a pair of PX12 heels only (but not the plastic mounting plate) that you or anyone else can have for shipping

    Met the guy, looked at the skis.

    Top sheets absolutely beat to hell on the inside edge. Concern for water penetration. Definitely saw another mount under there. Seller wasn’t sure how many times they were mounted

    Offered $100 seller said he couldn’t take less than $180. I walked away.

    Guy was funny, he was like “I’ve got more messages on this listing than all sixteen hundred of my other posts”.
