Skied, Langes, and Solomon in the 80 and early 90's, but moved to these around 1993-5?, and never looked back. Best boot ever. Skied these till 2006, when I acquired the Kneissl version on Ebay from someone in China, and this year (2017) moved to Full Tilt.

Spotted these on the hill the other day, the guy skis them non-retro, but said the air bladder gave out circa 1986. I had the black model of this boot, and I also ski FT everyday currently.

Sold them, but I think they were 25.5 (293)
I still have the kneissel ones.

Mine are 27.0 and 305. Take a look back to my early posts in this thread lots of photos of boots and parts. They are the coolest boots and the toughest boots all in one.

So a buddy of mine took his teenage son skiing for the first time this winter after much encouragement from myself. A couple weeks later he told me he got a great deal on some good used stuff from his brother. He spent $50 on boots and a pair of Rossi's. A couple weeks later I was at his house and saw the gear he bought. I laughed....a lot. Nobody gets you better than your family. I didn't take a picture of the skis. I did tell him to pitch them though. I certainly wouldn't put my son in bindings from the 90's. I did take a picture of the boots though as I knew you gear heads here at PugSki would enjoy them.....

Sold a lot of those back in the day. They were an easy sale because of the good fit and rear entry convenience.

I had a nice visit with an older couple last week in McCoy Station that still skis their Raichles every day out.
