Re: Gear Basket
I've always been tempted too. They are a little softer, so going long isn't a big issue, IIRC. The disparity in pattern is the gamble, you might get one ski with little pattern and another ski with an aggressive pattern. C'mon high roller- roll those dice and let us know!FourthCoast wrote: ↑Fri Dec 27, 2019 6:17 pmI am really tempted by these. I am trying to decide if it is worth the gamble on the waxless pattern.

Re: Gear Basket
Massive Seattle estate sale. Most XCBC skis I've ever seen in one Craigslist ad. Date is on 1/10/2020 at 3:00pm
https://seattle.craigslist.org/est/spo/ ... 77366.html
Says most of the skis are "short" sizes.
