I have some 189cm Made'ns that I am probably going to sell, depending if I can get some decent offers. I only skied them a few times as the end of last season. They are mounted with black and gold FKS 120s for a 307mm boot length. I don't remember but I am pretty sure they are -1cm from true center. I will check later tonight, and load up pics. Let me know what offers I can get. They really are in awesome condition. Almost no scratches or anything.

My best judgement is saying "don't do it" but how much do you want?

Yeah, see I don't really have a price. I don't know what I can get, that is what I want to know. PM me your offer with or without binders. Right now I have an offer for $300 with bindings.

Ok, so I have an offer for $350 with bindings. And one for $200 for the skis alone. Like I said, I am in no rush to sell, unless the price is right, so let me know what you can offer.

Yeah. it was deffinetly a whore, mainly because I had a shitty vice. But I followed the directions from tgr. Taking them apart is pretty simple. Then I used a bike seat post to bent them once they were in the vice which gets gay because they kept slipping out of the vice, and the large diameter pole wouldn't bend them right because it would slide off as you bent it. Over all its tricky, but not that bad. I would suggest using a pole that is as small as you can fit over the brakes. It will make it a lot easier to make a clean, 90 degree bend.

Yeah, its the re-assembly thats tough. I had issues getting the metal base plate back on. It was slightly warped, and that caused the clips to be off.

Bending was just time consuming.

What the hell. I am trying to make a tgr account to put them on there too, but it won't work. I've tried like 4 times and keep getting errors cuz it takes too long to load. What's wrong?

why would you use pow skis as park skis? ive seen a lot of people do it, like a guy up at timberline in the summer with hellbents, but whats the advantage over regular skinny skis?

It's mostly preference, but I love it. Once you try it you know why. They're just so stable and awesome, and not heavy at all. I mean, I do still have T-Halls, but I love skiing park with fat skis.

Bump. I might have an offer for $400 but I don't know yet. If anyone can meet or beat that they should be gone soon.

Alright, so I have a few offers for $400 plus shipping (which should be $20-$30 for the US). So basically whoever can beat $400 looks like they will get them.

Don't take any less than $450 plus ship with bindings.
That's such a good setup.
Kind of long for most people's park skis, but I've ridden my 189s on jumps and it's soooo smooth for switch landings.

Exactly, plus the brake bending is already done. Thats a risky task. I snapped one of my brakes, and took 2 months to track down a replacement.

Bump.
