Thank-you for not shipping to Canada and preventing me from wasting money on a pair of awesome skis I don't need. I'd also like to thank the Canadian dollar for dropping again and putting these just out of the impulse-buy price range.

Those things rock.

hahaha, noooo problem dude, sorry about the canada thing. i love canada.. i just don't love shipping things there.

they are sick skis, and they deserve a sick home... makes me think i should have made shipping to canada available because you guys have some ridiculous mountains.

These skis are called a 169, but they're actually 174. I have them and I measured them. Also I'm 5'7" and they are plenty large enough, tall as I am. Legit seller, absolute sickest skis out ever.

indeed! buy them! the reserve on the ebay auction is $500. if you're willing to pay that outright, or a little bit more, i'll cancel the auction and they're yours.

What is the exact measurement of the ski? Is it actually 174 like somebody said?

The best price for 2008 Hellbent are 479$ from MountainSide in SanFrancisco.
I Bought 1,79m last week brand new with full warranty.
So 500$ as the reserve price is too much from a new saler on ebay.
By the way Yesterdays 2008 Hellbent 1,79m with Salomon STH-16 sale for 635$
So put a buy it now at a lower price and everybody might be happier.
A free UPS ground service is not enough.
For shipping in Canada (if you're willin' too), it's a 60$ excessive brokeage fee charge from UPS, sale taxes are only 60$)
My 2 cents guy.
