I remember both those skis being around, I nay have skied those Tua's on a demo. I think that BD model was the "Revolution"; came after the Toute Neige generation and did not have the same level of performance. Wish I could say for sure, but I would have guessed those Tua's were a Mega, prior to the next run with the yellow top sheet. If not, they were of the same vintage/series, and would be worth skiing.

I had a pair Tua Tele Sauvage I bought used around 1991.

Rottefella Super Telemark cable bindings and a pair of double leather boots I’ve long forgotten the name of.

They were the skis I learned on. I’m just getting back into things after a 30+ year hiatus. Nice to see something I recognize hahaha.

The tuas look like my razors; they also lost their top coat, but still are my preference for downhill… mine have no camber left, and vibrate on icy slopes.
