$360. I missed em. It was the 194cm length which is what I need.
132/109 /122mm

I would definitely have snagged a pair of those at that price. But I
missed em.

Saw it. Thought about it. I've skied them. But I already have a new
pair of 90 waist skis. Figured I'd rather spend the money on gas than
buy a two day a year ski.

I haven't owned anything narrower than a Rossignol Bandit XXX since
fat skis first came out.

It's interesting the different skiing styles people have and the skis
they prefer.

I prefer a quiver. Just snagged a new pair of B3's, which are all I
need for powder. My collection is thicker in the mid fat and gs race
categories: I like to go fast on hardpack. Cruising on pow skis are a
pain: while the top end skis can motor right along, they simply do not
have the quickness edge to edge.
So I own eight pairs of skis. Will gift a pair or two to my best
buddy come fall, rack is full and I have a pair of Volkls stored in
Sun Valley, too.
Not to say I didn't like the Dynastar, mind you.....but only as a
quiver ski, and since I have two other skis almost as good in the
quiver, passed on the deal.

To embarass fat assed ugly ****s like you in races, behatch.
Remember? When I was so fast edge to edge that you weren't even in
sight when I finished?
Discuss. Discuss you committing felonies when you were exposed as a
blowhard fraud talking **** on the net.

Yep when I used to ski more I had a quiver too. Now just the fatties
for everything. They are slow as **** edge to edge... but they do
encourage me to keep my speed up and try to bounce over everything,
heh.

I tried B3's for a day this year and I had a hard time getting used to
them. By the end it was getting better so I'm sure that's a ski I
would have learned to like.

The K2s I got have quite a bit of sidecut for fatties. I'm excited to
see how they feel next year.

Chris
