Fuji's would be an excellent ski. Probably not as narrow as you like though.

Ya but they are also a little wider in the tip and tail. They are not the fattest but definently not the skinniest.

The only problem with last years T-halls is the de-tuning.

Ya 140 underfoot 20 years ago would have been unheard of. Like an alien or something.

Narrow isn't always better. They can be kind of sketchy.

Way to try and turn a profit off  SAC.  How coincidental they were selling that ski a while back for $180.

I just said that because there are specific rules against making money off of things you buy on SAC.  It doesn't matter that they cost more elsewhere, unless he can prove that they were purchased somewhere else he's definitely taking advantage of whoever decides to buy them.

the only way he would be taking advantage is if he knew about somewhere else that is selling them for less but doesnt tell the buyer about it (even then, that would just be dumb). and he doesnt have to prov anyting. if someone wants them for a sick price, then pick up these ski.

silly idiot.
