Hey,

I have the opportunity to buy a pair of '04 Pocket Rockets, I'm considering if I should buy these ski's as a cheap all-mountain ski. I'm  6"2" long and I weight 155 lbs, so my question is: Should I buy them? I have to pay 200 Euro for it (which is approximately 300 dollar), which might look much, but there aren't much twintips around here...

PS: If so, should center-mounted still be good enough for pow and park...?

Thanks for the info!

Unless those have bindings, that price is too high. Even with bindings, they had better be in fantastic shape. It sucks if you don't have many twins around where you are, but even still that price is too high IMHO.

if theyre new or next to new, with bindings, thats a fair price.

I'm Dutch so I use the metric system.... But what should be the way to say how tall you are in feet and inches?
