Thats a solid $800-$900 package is it not?? Would you say $500 would be right? I'm really looking for a good trade for lizzies if theres one out there...Otherwise, Im more than happy with keeping this ski..

"one day," according to him..could have been a second day on the second mount. Believe me, its hard to tell they were even skied one day if there weren't a hairline scratch or two on the gloss of the topsheet...are we trying to build a court case?

why are you looking to get rid of them? too big? if i still had my lizzies i'd consider a trade but due to my lack of patience my 08 bacons are already on the way haha. looks like they're mounted kinda far back too

I dont really even know, boredom perhaps. To be honest Im not a huge fan of the graphic and Im sort of a shorter ski type of skier. Im 5'-9" 175lbs or so and this will be my do all ski. Thoughts??

i wouldn't use a lizzy as your "do all" ski. i may have five inches on you, but i weigh about the same, and the lizzy is just not good enough in variable snow conditions (for me at least) to be a one ski quiver. to own a lizzy you must own at least one other pair of skis imho. i moved up to bacons because lizzies were just too soft (although i LOVED the super tiny turn radius in freshy trees) and because i also have a bigger ski (190 gotama) for when i want to charge hard, and i still have my 180 msp's for beating up.

you've skied your bacons i assume, other than the graphics what don't you like about them?
