Swiped up a pair of Dynastar 6th sense today at the local savers for 20 bucks. Any clue on what year based on the graphics? How much luck am I going to have with the bindings? They look to be Fischer x11s or something similar. Also am definitely going to have to remount to fit my boots. If anything they’ll be some fun rock skis to add to the quiver.

If you don’t mind taking up extra space any ski for $20 is good

Are those the ones with the double edge underfoot? Had a pair of those back in the day held up surprisingly well to daily rail abuse

The skis are well worth the 20 even without the bindings. The bindings are going to be indemnified as all tyrolia peak bindings are on the list and the fischer version you have is more or less the same. A shop probably won't remount them for you which is not a bad thing.

Yeah I figured they would be no good but I’m also not about to drop the cash for pivots on these

I’m not sure about the double edge but that would be sweet
