Dunno if it would count as vintage, but I would love to buy a "new" pair of Volkl Carver Plus skis in a 184 ish from the late 90's. Couple decent looking mounted sets on Ebay, no rush though, waiting for the right skis....Thanks for any leads!

Would you like a really nice pair of snow rangers instead. ? Sitting in my pole for the dump. Really clean….
Haven't seen the yellows! but recently found some Orange Siderals. Let me see if I can remember where, maybe it was the single ski on ebay. Ask me again in a month. Maybe I have a spare pair in the warehouse -I'm still looking for both Orange and Yellow Spaldings'...
Just say'n.

I hope they have the mounting epoxy to go with it. I don't know if any OTC epoxy will do the job.Heads up if you're in Chicagoland area. Somebody selling a pair of NOS Hexcel Comps 180.
A little short for my taste but a great addition to any collection.

A good shop could mount them with the correct epoxy. BTW you would have a lot of trouble drilling 2 inch holes in a Hexcel because the Honeycomb core would just tear apart.Dunno if they'll ever get bindings on them. Sounds like a pain to source bindings and mount them yourself. Definitely a lost art for somebody my age. They'd make a nice wall hanger though.
Seller said there was some interest in turning them into shot skis, so I'm just hoping they don't turn up on marketplace a month later with 2 inch holes drilled in them.
West system G-flex 650 ( toughened) epoxy works in Hexcels. It’s thick enough so it stays put when you turn them upside down to form the epoxy “nut”.. Excellent stuff.I hope they have the mounting epoxy to go with it. I don't know if any OTC epoxy will do the job.
Thanks, I will keep that in mind.West system G-flex 650 ( toughened) epoxy works in Hexcels. It’s thick enough so it stays put when you turn them upside down to form the epoxy “nut”.. Excellent stuff.
I do the same- about 8 seconds in a microwave on a piece of wax paper , makes mixing easier and more thorough.The temperatures of the epoxy will affect is viscosity. I warm up the resin and hardener before I mix it to make it flow better into thin cracks. There are additives you can mix in to make epoxy that will hold shape while setting.
I used some total boat flexible epoxy recently. I looking forward to hear how it worked out. The leftovers on the mixing sheet were very flexible.
Unfilled. I used tape to build a dam, so spreading wasn't an issue.Filled or unfilled?
