For my birthday yesterday, i got the 2008 scratch ghetto's! My dad is in the ski industry so he got them for a deal. I havent mounted them yet - but i am planning on buying the scratch bindings too. check out these pics(they are still in the plastic wrap so its shiny) ! _WHAT DO YOU THINK!??!?_

Sooo sick, Rossis that actually look good. Well a few other pairs did but these are actually sick. I love the graphics. They probably ski really well too.

for gods sake dont discrace with the rossignol park binding. if you want to be as legit as those skis put the FKS on them soon before they change binding design.

actually - i havent mountes them - im gonna wait till rossi has the bindings in stock. then ill have them shipped out. I might put my current older scratch pivots on just so i can test out the skis though. i really like them so far- nice and light.
