Decision '04 - but with skis

[DietCoke]

I have two options

1. Head Mad Trix 172 cm with Tyrolia SP100 bindings (a 'performance rental binding: pretty cheesy) for 320$ (also not mounted close enough to center as I want (tips about 15 cm longer than tail like an all mtn ski)

2. Salomon 1080s 171 cm with Salomon s712 bindings for 350$. (mounted closer to where I want)

both are of equal wear. Which should i get? I like the Mad trix for its construction, but I don't like the shit bindings or where they are mounted. However, the 1080's are still pretty solid despite their foam core construction plus they have decent bindings mounted in a decent spot.

2.

OKay well lets calculate how much that would cost if i got them for 250. $250 for skis + $160sh for bindings (p10s or scratch 100s) + shipping and mounting/tunning = about $500. Damn, thats a whole $150 over my budget...

Drop the price, get the Mad trix, find a deal on some better bindings, 'nuff said.

dude ebay that shit up. you could get Line 1260 177 for like 100 bucks.

Example - there is a pair of salomon 1080's 181 with s912ti's 4 hours left going for $265 and i bet they will be under $350 if that your bugedt. Watch ebay dude.

I've had some real badddd experiences with e-bay. I order some skis from them 2 years ago, and the guy never sent them. It took me like 6 months for me to get my money back and thats only because I threatened to press charges.

Really? I've been thinking about hitting up some of those deals, so... Ebay not a good idea?

First off, 1080's suck my dick. that spaceframe shit is the crapiest core you can get. but if ur a pussy and cant handle a bit heavier skis...get those pieces of shit...This is what you do 'dietcoke' you go on ebay, type in head madtrix, you're guna find sum brand new in the shrink-wrap in sizes 172, 181, and maybe 190. click on whatever you're size is. they will be around $230-2$40 buy it now. Maybe you could even bring down the price if you email him. then you look at the sellers feedback score. if its 98% or higher, then he will send you the skis, and if you never get them, i will personally come give you a rim-job...ok? thats exactly what i did, and i love my mad trix. then all you do is find sum look p10's or rossi 100's on ebay from another guy with a high feedback rating...the only time they wont send you the item is if they have a shitt feedback rating...
