PSA: $89 new race skis
https://www.skiessentials.com/2014-e...kis-plate.html
2014 Elan Ripstick, 191cm only, extra 10% off sale currently = $89 shipped (no tax on my confirmation). I called to ask about the binding mount plate on these skis -- store says that the plate is blank, not predrilled, so it can accept any binding.
This is what winter in Tahoe has become this year... buying 6-yr old race skis in Feb.

I was about to reply to your other thread, the grown up length has a blank plate, the 181 is predrilled for tyrolia. Don’t forget to grow your ridiculous Slovenian ski cross moustache.

You should budget for a race prep/tune (more than the price of that ski around here). They probably need it. I'd go 0.7/3, keep them sharp and avoid crowded runs. You'll be strong when the powder eventually shows up.

They got these bad boys as well if you want a little shorter/longer. We even have snow, but I may be down for some skinnies.

I have a pair of 188/30's (the women's size) and they are pretty fun to free ski.

The skis have an autograph printed on them from Filip Flisar. Googled him and he does have an impressive moustache:

If anyone wants shorter, I scored a pair of 2016 183 Fischer RC4 WC GS in medium flex, women's FIS so they're 30m. Blank plates, intended for Tyrolia/Head/Fischer race bindings. Think I have $140 in them, willing to pass along as long as I break even. They're in SoCal.
