I've got a set of Solly 1s in a 210...the old skool orange bastards...I'd let em go pretty cheap but shipping them would suck.

nice!!! The first paire of skis I ever bought myself were blizzard thermo SL. although at a paltry 198 it does not quite meet your limitations. :D

Volkl needs to make a 212 V-pro, that would be sick.

"These skis may seem sick and wrong coming in at 212 cm. But heck, if it's wicked speed you want, than these are for you"

I have to have those. They are sweet, but I'd probably just kill myself on 'em.

edit: heh, those heads are from the guy thats selling the "most expensive skis in the world"

edit 2: wow, this guy has some sick auctions up cheap stuff, mostly new

You gotta be going fucking FAST to turn a ski that long.

Used to run long, early morning, hardpack cruisers at Vail on Ehrbacher 210 tele noodles with leather lace-ups and sidethrow cables. Good times.

Hope y'all got plenty of room to let it fly!

wow.... i want a pair of seth pistols in 215s... :)

I'VE GOT IT... THE FOLLOWING IS PATENT-PENDING (my ass) and COPYRIGHTED (how does that work?).... j/k

Glen Plake promotes a pow board.... keep the 212 length, but lets get something like a 125/110/120.... that way the sidecut is relatively mild, in keeping with his straight skiing skillz, and it keeps the ghetto length...

Anyone else want in?

That's the feeling I'm looking for....some cold, early morning speed runs on some old-school planks.

But honestly, after the first morning is over....I plan on busting the shit out of them on some billy-goat lines. :D

Well I'm flexible on the length requirements 'cause Punani has some 207's I think. Greydon is pretty tough though.....he was very adamant on the 210 requirement :D

Can I use my 201 Stormrider DP's? The have the same surface area as an old school 215.
Or my 205 GS skis. They have ESS Var bindings I can pull all the way back so they ski like 210's?
Although I do still have those 240's around somewhere. Still unmounted though.

Nice sniping young jedi

I tried to snipe these, but was off by two-fitty :mad: DAMN I reallllly wanted these 221s.

Maybe if Sobchak would be so kind as to lend me his Bode boards....:D

Dang, the rossis I obtained from outside the salvation army in Palo Alto are only 200 cm. If I keep the old sillymon 747's on, does that give me the extra 10 cm, or do I need to continue dumpster diving?

If you have to ask, keep diving.

I've got a pair of pretty purple 213 Rossi Super G's; you pay for shipping and their yours.

Multiple responses could drive the cost of shipping up :p

If skiing on 200's and Salomans are cool, consider me Miles Davis.

Weren't those Dachsteins? Only reason I say that is they were really squeaky on cold days.

I bought a 200 cm Look snowboard at the ski swap in Tahoe City 5 years ago or so. This thing would peel your eyelids back straightlining the groomer just off Siberia chair it was so fast.

Freeskiing on my 213 K2 DH Team's . Those were some good days. You really have to work 'em in the powder though. You guys got me all excited about them again. I've still got 'em, mounted with Solly 957 Race binders. Just might pull 'em out on the next ice day (or spring bump day for that matter...)

heh....

speaking of impressive....skier666 competed in the Kirkwood big mountain comp. a few years back on his 223 RD's. I think he did pretty damn good too...........

EDIT: hmmmm...a long-board day at the Summit?! ehhh...I doubt anyone would want to cart these suckers through an airport though...

Dudes- It is Long Boards Day not "Short Ski Day" or "Old Ski Day" or "K2 5500 Day". 210 is the MINIMUM length for participation. If you're on 208s I might ride the lift with you, but don't expect conversation, and if your running 201s or 195s... well don't even bother. Also, as Tyrone stated, LDB is about turning and skiing lines, not tucking Buckboard.

Thank you and please stay tuned for further instruction.
