I used them about 8 times.  The skis from what I remember look like new.  They are in my basement buried in wax.  The bindings were mounted to far forward and I don't like the way they ski.  The binding have about 80 days on them but those things are bullet proof.  I am guessing I would take 275 cash for the set up.  Then he is going to have to remount the binding for a 100 bucks.  So he will have 375 into the set up.  I spent like 900 bucks on the skis alone so its not a bad deal.  I even have an old pair of skins that I would throw in but the glue needs to be reapplied.

Thanks, I'll mention it to him.  He's very often an "all talk, no action" kind of guy (read: cheap SoB) but he really needs to pull the trigger on something that will get him into the BC.

I'm hoping he'll head out west with me, and I've got a crew that's looking to get into the ADK BC, get an earlier trip to Tucks, and hit up the Thunderbolt this year.....so he needs a rig!

Picked up a new Patagonia Powder Bowl shell a month ago, and ordered an REI Revelcloud on closeout last night for $51, to compliment my existing layering options.  If nothing else, I should be warm and dry.

Tele turns are optional not mandatory.

I have followed Darkside down the path.
