check these beasts out:

they have to be at least as old as the 1950s judging by the cable bindings.

you could totally land switch on those, not necesarily with those bindings, but put newer bindings and you could definitely land switch.

those are still not the oldest. The first recognized pair of twin tips is in the Colorado Ski Museum in Vail. They are from the 1920's when the 10th mountain division was training for WWI. They used the twin tip design so they could trek across the mountain and slide both forwards and backwards in the powder without getting stuck. This was only for traversing, not making turns switch like we do today. I will see if i can get a picture.
...he died doing what he loved. He will always be rememberd as a great snowboarder, but more importantly as a great friend.

i'd love to buy those skis

----------
I changed my sig because someone thought it was too long,so that makes it a shorter sig,doesn't it?Maybe i should make it longer,maybe not,but who gives a fuck?Certainly not me,neither your mom,I like trees,because they grow apples,and I like apples as much as i like weed.
My conclusion is that we should all put some seeds under the ground in some hot country(like mine,where the heat is too hot to move 3 feet away from the swimming pool)and just let it grow,because when i get old i wanna get stoned,but in order to get high i need to improvise some techniques for the growth of pot.
