Thats a solid $800-$900 package is it not?? Would you say $500 would be right? I'm really looking for a good trade for lizzies if theres one out there...Otherwise, Im more than happy with keeping this ski..
 
the person that prev owned them didnt like them center mounted (1st mount) and had them set back, hence...
 
"one day," according to him..could have been a second day on the second mount. Believe me, its hard to tell they were even skied one day if there weren't a hairline scratch or two on the gloss of the topsheet...are we trying to build a court case?
 
why are you looking to get rid of them? too big? if i still had my lizzies i'd consider a trade but due to my lack of patience my 08 bacons are already on the way haha. looks like they're mounted kinda far back too
 
I dont really even know, boredom perhaps. To be honest Im not a huge fan of the graphic and Im sort of a shorter ski type of skier. Im 5'-9" 175lbs or so and this will be my do all ski. Thoughts??
 
i wouldn't use a lizzy as your "do all" ski. i may have five inches on you, but i weigh about the same, and the lizzy is just not good enough in variable snow conditions (for me at least) to be a one ski quiver. to own a lizzy you must own at least one other pair of skis imho. i moved up to bacons because lizzies were just too soft (although i LOVED the super tiny turn radius in freshy trees) and because i also have a bigger ski (190 gotama) for when i want to charge hard, and i still have my 180 msp's for beating up.

you've skied your bacons i assume, other than the graphics what don't you like about them?
