@Bill Miles
Tragic…
Were those yours?
Did you ski the SuperSport Superspeeds?

 

[crgildart]

The opposite is that you have two pairs of any ski. I

Pfft @da-cat has more pairs of Olin Mark IVs (And Mark IIIs) than that..

 

[da-cat]

@crgildart, yes.
One pair from you! Thanks!
OLINs… the complete set just about.
@Bill Miles,
I could have read your post better as “dinged an edge” tells the story yes you skied the SuperSports…. So
Some of the best ever or what?!

Bottom line,
45 years of ski collecting and it boils down to; do it for yourself.
One day I was skiing on my classic 195cm Fischer Vacuums and loving it.
Riding on the lift with a stranger, they had skis, maybe rentals, just something new- they could care less about my skis.
Me, well it’s on a lift ride when you look down and think: man I love these skis!
You know how much I just wanted to say “these are classics - the boots the bindings the skis- all top of the line.. 1986”!
I never said anything about me and my skis….


Meanwhile
I have been holding out:
I think these are 205cm
Volkl Weltcup and their tiger striped bases

Growing up a ST Comp guy I knew about the VR17’s but I worried about the Hexcell Comps.

Why would you worry about the Hexcel Comps? I loved mine.

I never saw one do that, the worst I saw was a tip BTW that was not made of the honeycomb bend up just a little.
