Y’all got any cool old skis sitting around?



I acquired these in a few random ways over the course of this year. They are actually pretty fun to mess around on but I don’t quite understand how the pros ripped so hard in the 90s.

From left to right:

-K2 Jerry Launchers 195cm

-K2 5500 Grateful Dead Lightning Rose edition 200cm

-Rossi 7SK 198cm

Those grateful dead skis are so sick, I've always wanted some but I don't really wanna spend $1k on bent 122s

edit: The bertha skeleton is so dope

Me and my Dad actually copped a pair of the 120s this season. We traded some concrete work for them, it was a sweet deal. Got the jerry launchers from the same guy as a tip

We need [tag=189437]@DominatorJacques[/tag] to liven up this thread with a ski from his quiver. I know he's gotta have some cool old ski sitting around

I do indeed, yet my days of unshaped skis left the barn a long time ago. My "old" skis, and they are old, have shape. I love me the GS skis, but also some SL skis, which I GS.

IDK, maybe I should make a little video piece.

Thanks for the shout!

I picked up a pair of never been mounted K2 670 for $25 this past winter with the intention to just use them as decor, but I'm thinking I might put some bindings on and give em a rip

Yeah dude mount em up and give them a rip. You can always throw them on the wall later with a set of binding holes in them

I got myself a pair of 1994 tommy moe gold medal edition dynastar coupe du monde downhill skis for $25, but unfortunately don't have any pics and am away from home for a while. Skied them for one run and they were fun but heel springs on the bindings were totally busted so if you leaned forward at all you popped out
