Source for 166cm Karhu Grizzly's?
After demo'ing a number of skis, I finally decided
on a pair of Karhu Grizzly's, in 166cm length, as just what I needed for tight, NE backcountry trails. Unfortunately, a number of other people must have come to the same conclusion, since these appear to be unavailable from any source that I've tried. Can anyone steer me toward a local (to you) retailer who might have a pair available? I've tried the national chains (EMS, REI), and all of the online dealers I can locate, all to no avail. Karhu says they've been sold out of this length for some time now. So, my only hope is that some local shop has a pair left in stock. Thanks in advance for any leads. -- RT __________________________________________________ _________ R. T. McKenzie | rtmc@snet dot net |

Your best bet will be a retailer, maybe in an area with less than usual snowfall this year (Boston does not qualify ;-)). By November 1, December 1 at the latest, the manufacturer's warehouse for any ski related gear will be pretty much empty, out to retailers. Mid-February is about the end of retail winter, and the start of end-of-season sales. Rather than online retailers, I would suggest you work the phones to actual retail shops.
