theres only a handful of kids on here that i have seen make legit homemade skis. you could probably talk to some of them if you have your heart set on custom/homemade skis but i doubt they will do it for really cheap because its such an involved process

ive been working on building skis, and its still in progress. its a hugely indepth process (at least to build anything good), and i know i wouldnt bother selling them to some random kid for a drop less than 4-5 hundred. but thats just me.

In all truth, I wouldnt buy a homemade ski from someone UNLESS they have had a season to prove themselves, and if the sizes, dimensions, and graphics were good, I would have no problem with it. It costs, generally, about 75-130$ for just the material for a pair of skis(correct me if im wrong), so I can only see someone selling them for a minimum of 250-300$. with all the time and planning, you have to turn a nice profit.
