lunger Posted February 16, 2009 Posted February 16, 2009 Contact me via PM. Gear for sale: Atomic Kailas backcountry skis, 174cm, 88mm underfoot (bought new 2007) Dynafit Classic bindings (purchased new 2006) BD Ascension skins (purchased new 2006), cut for above skis. Whole package = $400. Buyer pays shipping, if any--I can meet folks that live in Seattle area. Price is a good deal; if they don't sell, will be my backup rig and/or spare binding parts. Reason for replacement: finally caved in and bought boots that don't molest my feet, and in shopping process was lured by a seductive gypsy into a whole new setup. General condition: The skis have lots of life left, and have been freshly tuned. The bindings are also in good shape, and probably worth >$200 on their own. The bindings are mounted for a Garmont Megaride 28.5 boot, which I believe is 318mm in length. If your boot doesn't fit, usually you can remount by simply moving the toe-piece. The skins still stick well, and the middle strip still covering the glue can be removed once you reach the limits of the currently exposed glue. Mini-review, for what it's worth: The Kailas skis are awesome. I've been surprised that at 174cm, these skied very well for my 175ish pounds + 10-40 lbs on the back. Lightweight, quick turning, stable, good edging power in firm conditions, and float well for their size.

If you don't like the clipfix, you can retro fit the tail attachment to your preference. In sum, this setup has seen some fun, but holds more in store for whoever picks these up. Kailas topsheets also visible(?) here, in the BYS couloir off NF of Shuksan: bases - typical nicks and scratches You know they're good skis when they make a hack appear a passable skier: Dynafit Classic bindings BD Ascension skins Combo got my decrepit booty up here (Mt.

lunger Posted February 23, 2009 Author Posted February 23, 2009 I've got an offer for the bindings that's > $200, but would rather sell the whole package together. Somebody should rock this do-it-all setup. Quote
