We certainly need more Asnes dealers in the US, as having only one makes us subject to their buying decisions, or lack thereof.

I think you have 2 now with REI offering some models online

Have you checked with them to do a special order? I can understand the dealers not wanting to take too much risk by stocking too many skis, especially for more like a niche market.

Anyone have advice where to buy Asnes poles online (I’m in the US)? I looked at Neptune, maybe they just aren’t listed on the site though...

The only place I've seen a wide selection of Asnes poles is sportalbert.de ...they will ship to the US...but you will pay a steep shipping cost. You will have to bundle those poles with a new pair of skis, bindings, boots to make it all worth it. and throw in some mohair Xskins.

Does anyone know where I could get FT 62 skis most likely 180 or 188 for this winter-looks like Sport Albert is backordered for now.
Thanks!

I spent too much of my day reading and debating with my self about the almost perfectly continuous range of skis from Asnes. Between the posts I read on here and their website I am convinced that I need every ski they make.
I decided I want the Asnes MT 51 first!
https://www.en.asnes.com/produkt/mountain-touring-51/
But it seems like I missed my chance to get some Asnes skis this year. I think everything in North America is sold out.
I am looking for a 210cm since I am (*ahem*) heavier than the 90kg weight for the longest ski.
Does anyone have a secret supply, new or used?

I am not sure any of the few retailers in North America actually order the MT51. I would say it has to be a special order you place early. Only my guess

Where are you at Fourth Coast? I’m heading west next weekend. I have a couple Åsnes skis.
