I'm young and am trying to get into ski racing. I'm too young to have a job so I cannot buy new skis does anyone have an old pair willing to sell for cheaper?

Sorry for angering you, I'm just trying to get into the sport, I'm not demanding for anything. I'm 15 without a license, I cannot get a job. Thanks for the feedback. I'll pay but I dont have that much.

keep an eye on craigslist and other used gear sites, check play it again sports if they have shops like that around you, stuff like that. you have lots of time til next season so you might find a great deal on old or used stuff

go used. Consigment store, fall ski swap. $200 seems to be the going rate for used race skis

Ah, I’m on the other side of the states, cost of shipping will be as much to buy some used stuff closer.

Can't believe no one mentioned the irony of someone asking for race skis on NS.

OP, here's some solid advice. Fuck racing. Check out the BST section here or a gear swap at your local hill and pick up some park or freeride skis. Much cooler
