I am selling all my skis. I hate skiing and don’t want to do it anymore. You all suck.

Actually I just don’t have time to get out much this year... or next year... or the year after... yeah. So I don’t need a full quiver and perhaps some of these items will be better suited to a new home.

First item: Line Chronic Wides, 187cm long, 86mm waist. As new. I barely used them because I have 2 pairs of the same ski. The fact that the other pair is the only thing I’m keeping (yeah I lied I’m not selling quite all of them) after this sale should give you some indication of how excellent these are for a one ski quiver. I consider them the best ski for riding switch on I’ve had the chance to ride. They come with equally new matching look px12 bindings mounted to a 335 sole. You could just get the pictures off google image search, since they’re basically mint, but to prove they’re mint, here are pictures. 350 CDN (or US I guess) for the setup / 250 for skis, 100 for bindings. Since original retail was more than double that and they’re pretty much new, that’s a steal.

Next, the original Armada Ant Pro, 191cm long, 106mm waist. Used for half of last season, almost exclusively on pow days in Whistler. Fat, stiff, and fast as hell. Quintessential charging twin. Not sure how many people on this website have any use for such things. The topsheet and edges are in excellent shape, no cracks or chips to speak of. There was one base gouge, not quite a core shot, but I figured it was deep enough to deserve P-tex. I put a picture of it in there. That happened on the first day I rode them and the Ptex job has held up ever since so it should be good in perpetuity. They come mounted once with Scratch 140s, the ones with the actual pivot heel. Since you can’t get those anymore and they were a great binding I figure that’s a selling point. The bindings have been painted as you can see. Both items are rare (new ANTs aren’t as beefy as the originals, and the bindings aren’t made anymore), so if these are what you’re looking for who knows if you’ll get another chance. 400 for the package; skis and bindings. PS - any little spots on the bases in these pictures are just wax shavings.

Lastly, and I hesitate to do this but maybe there’s someone who needs these and has an idea of what they’re worth as a ski, I offer my original Seth Pistols, 189cm long, 95mm waist. As far as I’m concerned (and I’m not alone) they are the best all-mountain ski ever made. Pretty soft, but nonetheless solid enough for Seth to ski in AK on them and produce that segment from Focused, more than wide enough to float on anything but still easy to turn, fast, and they even kill it in park. These have, I would say, 20ish days on them, and plenty of life left (they ski as they did when new). They did sustain a core shot, which was shop-repaired, you can see it under the “L” in “Pistol” on the base of the top ski there by the edge (which was undamaged). The ptex has held up well. The edges are in great shape with no cracks, the topsheets have a couple of nicks and scuffs but just cosmetic stuff and all quite small, as you can see by the pictures. They are on their second mount and come with brand new px12tis. I will take offers on the skis + bindings, or just skis alone, but don’t see any reason to sell the px12s by themselves since you can pretty much get them anywhere. This is in case someone has been dying to get their hands on a pair of these in the past year, because I know there aren’t any pairs out there anymore really. Pictures:

wow, you have some sick set-ups JD

those Ants are tempting and i can't believe those pistols are in such good condition
 
i have the pistols in a 169 that i used to ride, i can deffinatly back up the "best all mountain skis ever made" thing, these things rip
 
Sorry dude, but 350 is more than fair as it is, and shipping can be around 40 bucks depending on where you are in the USA.

I've already had a lot of interest in the pistols (surprise surprise), and fyi the ANTs are mounted at 86cm from the tail for a 335 sole. I wouldn't want to mount them forward of that, they're good there, it's about 9cm back of true c I think. Going further forward risks tip dive, further back and you lose tail, and I enjoyed Mark-Abmaing through deep stuff switch on them so the 86cm of tail was nice to have.

Bump before I go to work!
 
Ok folks, this would be an example of what not to do. Sorry dude, no offense, but you're clearly not understanding what I'm selling. You made an offer for 3 year old skis mounted twice. What I'm selling here is original 189 Seth Pistols. If you don't see the rather large difference there, we're not on the same page, and you're not in the right ballpark.
 
^ yeah we are all with you on that one, those pistols are way too sick for them to be seen just as "old skis".  & those chronic wides are my defenition of a good 1 ski quiver (i own a pair)... damn you have taste!
 
Evening bump, and one more thing to add!

Oakley Storm One Piece, Map Print, Brand Fucking New! Size medium, which if you've seen these things is big enough for just about anyone. Like, over 6 foot 4 tall. That is it's taller than me and I'm 6'3. Like, any bigger and you won't be able to move. If you're under 6 feet, it'll be nice and baggy. 320 takes it, firm.

I don't know if that's going to work. So here is a link to the picture.

I can't believe you're selling the Pistols. I will never part with my pair, they'll be mounted on my wall some day.

And for those of you who are interested in them, they are worth AT LEAST $250. Even with two mounts those things only have 20 days and are in amazing shape. I've seen pairs with 2 mounts and easily double the days go for that.
 
yea they may be worth a bit more but i offered what i got. and he's got other competition with newer pairs going for 300 mounted once or never.
 
Please link me to anywhere selling original Pistols mounted once or not at all for 300. No wait, link me to somewhere selling them at all.
 
Haha I've received this message almost verbatim several times since yesterday.
 
^PM sent.

4 people have expressed an interest in the ANTs now, but no one has completed payment! First person to get the $ into my paypal account takes them. PM me for shipping / paypal info.
 
Meh. You never know with NS. Some people are really sketchy about actually following through.
 
no offense....but your an absolute idiot for selling those pistols

you know how hard those are to find?

you should keep those bro...seriously!!!!

but yea, bump for a rediculously insane deal!!!

someone buy these.

dammit, sick skis like these always pop up right after i buy a new pair!!!

 
People keep telling me that but my tuition this year is five figures and I have to repay my loans!

Anyway no one has given me a firm offer for them yet except trades for Madens, but I need $ not more skis! I need fewer skis. Buy my skis!
 
John Douglas is a reliable seller, please purchase the products being sold by this amiable person, it will be a pleasant experience you will not regret.
 
keep the pistols...please. so sick.

sell sperm or plasma or drugs or something. Pistols are worth keeping. You will work it out.
 
agreed!

thats what i said

even if you just keep them in a closet or whatever, your gonna be able to pull them out in like 10 years and if you still wanted to sell them they'd be worth so much more!!!!

people would pay out the ass for those sticks!!!
 
IF I SEE ANYONE SHREDDING GROUSE FROM THIS CULT WITH THAT SUIT I WILL RIP OUT YOUR STILL -BEATING HEART AND DEVOUR IT IN FRONT OF YOU.
 
fuck the real world, keep the pistols! you can then move with them to alaska and life happily ever after.
