170cm Wood-core Salomon 720's w/ Bindings $75 + shipping

I'm selling some older 720's with Look Tx8 bindings (DIN up to 12.5). I was going to use them as jib skis, but they're just a bit too soft for me.
The bindings are center-mounted. The skis are in great shape. Typical topsheet scrapes from regular skiing, bases are in good shape, and the edges are as well. No gouges or cracks, etc.
They're light and easy to flick around, would make great urbans or jibs.
I'll be gone most of today, but go ahead and leave me messages, or e-mail me, nathangu AT mac DOT com

They're dark blue, with a red-ish Salomon logo overprinted on them and have "720" on them in white.
Yeah they're pretty soft. Lots of fun to screw around on. Like I said. They'd make for great urbans or job skis.
If anyone's interested at all I'll go ahead and post pics.

The tail is only a partial twin (common for the time) but it hasn't caused me any problems on the groomers or hardpack of the park.
It's not a ski for going switch in the crud or powder though.

The skis are great for park and small mountains, but for bigger mountains these babies like to chatter at high speeds. I had the model before this one so it could be different.

Thanks for the info, I wasn't sure, but I'd contacted Salomon and they told me wood, but it wouldn't be the first time they'd lead me astray on an older product.
Thanks!

what size boot is it set for? or are they like demo's?

They're set for a 317mm shell, but the bindings can actually be adjusted pretty easily. The "MaxFlex" plate is mounted center and the front of the binding actually has several holes in the plate it can be screwed into with range markings on it.
You pick the range for your boot size, then adjust the rear in small increments to make a precise fit. I actually wish more bindings were setup like that.

hmmm...messages are messed.
Sounds like a wicked deal. Two questions: What are the dimensions (particularly underfoot, but all would be sweet)? And how much would it cost to ship em to Ottawa, Canada, K1H 7N9?
Thanks man.
