FS: '01 184 Rossi Hellgate w/ Hammerheads, $235, used ~6x
184 Rossignal Hellgates, dimensions 100/67/88. They have the 01/02 Hammerheads on them (virtually the same as today HHeads, except for the climbing wire), and prior to that they had the prototype HHeads. The skis perform well on hardpack. The skis and bindings have only been used about 6 times. A few shallow scratches, but otherwise perfect. The heel post was mounted with the wire facing the toe, to mitigate collapse.
$230 + Shipping from Portland Oregon
This is the review in 00/01 Couloir Ski Review where they were given Editor's Choice Award for Hardpack,

While the Attaque had a tendency to scare people at speed, the Hellgate plasters a big smile on instead. The ski absolutely devours firm conditions. Set the ski on edge and enjoy the carve. But, and this is important, they are equally adept in sloppy snow. "Great all-around ski. Held an edge on ice and ate up the crud," said tester Paul Miller. This is a fun, stable ski capable in various snow conditions. Like the Big Bang, the tip may cause problems when hooking your skins. The Hellgate’s were the only ski to be unanimously voted Editor’s Choice.
