Vintage Skis

[CurtEgerer]

Just don't expect too much. But, they were sure great in their day.

They'll track you off into the woods if you try to do a clean carve. They'll slide just fine so ski them accordingly.

Just don't get hurt!!

Definitely going to need to eat my spinach before jumping on those bad boys again! Hopefully there will be that nice eastern blue ice covering the slope that day too ... the VO's yearn for the ice Ahhh, the good old days.

A bit shorter, but I'd give it a go.

New additions to the collection as of this weekend: 1983 Dynamic VR27 Equipe (SL 200) and 1984 Atomic ARC Team Bionic (SL 207) w/Marker M40 Racing. Love the bold graphics on both of these!

Curt- Wow, haven't seen those skies in a while. Memory lane.

BTW, last year I bought a pair of "long skies" 188cm White Stars. Although I get double-takes in life lines, they just truck across every terrain and are very stable.

It was a sad day when I finally trashed my Dynamic VR17s one pair GS and one pair SL I was a big Killy fan needless to say.

Here is where the ski race camp was held, it was a really good place to gain your ski racing "chops" at age fifteen!

Love the photo, nice steep shoulder rubbing turns :-), reminds me of Kirkwood dropping into the the rabbit runs on a sunny day or up at Alpine Meadows off the Palisades.

I still have my Head JKilly 808 metalglass 210cm Made in Austria. I've updated the bindings from Look Nevadas to Marker MRRs. Burgundy color closely resembles the '69 911 color.

A shipload of skis used on a skate park for the kids around here-
