goslow Posted April 20, 2004 Posted April 20, 2004 These are super light weight (4.5 lbs !!) skis that are perfect for spring touring (i.e. leaving your friends in the dust on the climb!). Brand new and shiny! Asking $150.00, obo. Dynafit "Lite Tech" 180cm, must be mounted w/ dynafit bindings (why else would you buy light skis if you're just going to put 4lbs of bindings on them?). They're "on sale" at www.life-link.com (under "specials") if you want to check them out. Quote
Dr_Crash Posted April 23, 2004 Posted April 23, 2004 So you're asking $150 and Life-Link sells them for $99. I'm confused. I guess "OBO" could yield an offer under that price though. I'm also curious. Have you skied such lightweight skis? They must be really weird on snow that is less than perfect. drC Quote
snoboy Posted April 23, 2004 Posted April 23, 2004 Dr C: You are confused, the Lite Tech is on sale for: WEB SALE Price $269.00 the Tourlite Rally is $99 Quote
schnitzem Posted April 23, 2004 Posted April 23, 2004 The Rally skis suck (hence only $99), I have skied the Tour Lite Techs and they ski really well in spring conditions. for what its worth: A lot of Euro-trash guides use these skis on serious descents! Quote
Dr_Crash Posted April 23, 2004 Posted April 23, 2004 I knew I was confused . Thanks for pointing it out. (And I can't read a ski name either, apparently.) drC Quote
goslow Posted April 26, 2004 Author Posted April 26, 2004 Dr. C, When I first read that they were selling for $99 bucks at Life-Link.com I thought "oh, crap!" But I see that that's all straightened out. Hopefully somebody will realize that $150.00 bucks is a good deal. I might be able to scrape up a pair of in the box and shiny TLT Tech binders to add (if you don't already have them) for an additional $200 (for a total of $350), let me know. And yes, I have skied skis like this (same model), in fact that's all I ski at the moment. They're great, probably especially when the snow is less than perfect (thus, "in time for spring," i.e. hard snow mornings, corny/slushy afternoons, strange evenings). Sure, they don't have the limosousine dampness of my favorite alpine board (which I might enjoy if I had perfect conditions), but then again I have lighter, softer boots when I'm in the backcountry, so it's nice to have a lighter and softer ski -AND- I have to carry them (on my feet or my back) up any hill that I want to go down, and that's when they're MONEY! So, that's my nickle's worth. Quote
Bug Posted April 27, 2004 Posted April 27, 2004 I have a MH Absolute Zero parka and a pair of FF Front point pants that I will trade the two of you for your skiis and bindings. You guys will have to work out how to share. Quote
goslow Posted April 27, 2004 Author Posted April 27, 2004 BUG-- I might be interested? What size and what condition are the parka and pants? Quote
Bug Posted April 27, 2004 Posted April 27, 2004 Both size large and in perfect condition. I would be looking for Dynafit skiis and bindings for both. Would do some dealing with cash and other items. PM me if you are still interested. Quote
goslow Posted April 30, 2004 Author Posted April 30, 2004 THESE ARE STILL FOR SALE, SKIS + BINDINGS = $350.00 Quote
Jedi Posted May 15, 2004 Posted May 15, 2004 Dag, I need a new pair of ski's but I gotta use my 404's (can't afford new bindings). I flew with NorthWest. When I unpacked yesterday, I found one of the forward ends of a ski BROKEN OFF. Now the Chouinard TUA's are offically retired since duct tape & Seam Sealer will not fix them. My skins need to be reglued so I'm in the market a pair of those also. Jedi Quote
Bug Posted May 17, 2004 Posted May 17, 2004 I got em. Thanks Goslo. Rosi tele's 190's going cheap. Quote
