ON3P Needs Newschoolers help - Stolen Skis at Squaw

I was wondering if people in the Lake Tahoe area could keep their eyes out for a pair of stolen 186cm ON3P JBS that were taken from the village at Squaw Valley last night.

Skis are 186cm long, full twin, 104 underfoot.  Pretty similar to a gotama to give you an idea of what they look like.

Mounted with older salomon s900s. 

This is the graphic

This is the [B][U]ONLY[/U][/B] pair of these skis in the tahoe area.  There are a pair of wrenegades around there with the same topsheet graphic, that do not have the big "3" in the tip, owned by powderhound100 on here. 

If anyone sees these skis, please let me know so we can get them back to their owner.  They were supposed to be competing in the Crystal freeride comp soon and it would be sweet if we could get them back in time :D.

I figure if there is ANY ski right now that would be easy to track down, this would be it.  There is only 52 pairs out there right now and I know where 51 of them are.

If you need to get ahold of me, or what my number, shoot me a PM or email at skiups9 AT gmail DOT com.

Thanks!

I'll be at five of the Tahoe resorts next week. It's likely these skis and I will cross paths... Someone give these poor kids w/ ON3Ps something to say so we know you didn't steal them.

Work in the park at alpine, ride there almost every day. I will show the pictures to some friends who work there as well and keep an eye out.  if they make an appearance at alpine, there is a good chance they'll be spotted.

Just ask people questions about where they got them and about Scott... those who are legit will have something to say.

I filed a police report so the cavalry can be called in legitimately.

Melvs, I might be getting a pass at Alpine as of tomorrow.

What's the capital of Tileland?

Bangcaulk!

Sorry. Anyway, anyone who actually owns ON3Ps will know the name of the model they have and the NS name of the guy who made them. And what On3p stands for. All good things to ask. But if they have that graphic and they're in Tahoe they're almost certainly Josh's. Look for the big 3 on the tips.

unfortunately the on3p line-item was deleted from the stimulus bill. mccain called it "pork" and i think he was calling me fat. and i have yet to find our 25 grand hiding in obama's 3.6 trillion dollar 2010 budget.

^It needs more funding than 25 grand to work, that ain't gonna cut it.

But yes, person wondering when they are going to hit production, it is in the works... When they come out they will be even better than the ones you're all seeing now. And that's saying something.

I feel like if Tanner could not get Armada skis for the X-games it would be a big fucking deal.

While the skis are great and all, and it is definatly better to ski them then his beat to shit 4 year old Seths, the main point is that he would like to rep ON3P, and ski on the skis that he helped design and build, (they are his promodel) JBS = Josh's Baby Ski.

What he's trying to say here is that Josh is as good as Tanner. If Tanner asked you to help find his skis, you'd help right? Well there you go.

That was never implied. I just know that josh is good enough to win, almost did last year, and it would be fucking sweet for ON3P if he did it on our skis.

Hope you find them. But for the competition, can't you try and send him another pair or something? Cause your right, that would be amazing for you guys if he won it on ON3P skis. I know it might cost an ass and a half to send them, and they wouldn't exactly be "his" skis, but it might be worth it. Anyways, good luck.

This was already discuss in the first page. He'll have skis to use regardless, I think way to big of a deal is being made about the crystal comp. We just want the skis back, regardless of if he gets to use them to compete.
