Kids bindings.

Marker 4.5 with demo track.
Free + shipping

Note: bindings and tracks came off different setups but I'm fairly certain they will work together. No template but I've got pics of plates mounted so if you're willing to do some 2x4 tests you can probably figure out mount location and adjust for smaller boot as necessary.


One and a half Marker 7.0 bindings. Kid blew up the other toe in a fairly spectacular wipeout. Free + shipping

Danno - PRB = Peoples Republic Boulder?

I've got 2 pair Gotamas 128 cm 86 waist.
One mounted with marker 7.0 one unmounted. What BSL are you looking to fit?

What length GS and how old/beat are you willing to consider? I've got 3-4 pairs up to 145ish available have to inventory tonight for next season.

Still looking for a fattish all mountain ski for a small ten year old girl, maybe something around 130?

Also looking for GS race skis for her.

Yep, PRB is Boulder.

Marker 7.0 is still a kids binding, right? I just checked her new boots for this year (which she hasn't tried on yet, need to do that!), and they are still kid's boots (based on what was posted earlier in here, they are stamped with a "C" which means kid boot?). Assuming that the boots I have fit (will confirm tonight), the BSL is 259. Those Gotamas sound like a good option.

As for GS race skis, I'm thinking in the 135 range? Fuck if I know, I'm not an alpine skier and this is my only kid, so it's all guesswork.

Owen skied in them for years

If she needs GS skis, I'm assuming there's a race program and a coach involved...every coach I know is very happy to answer pre-season equipment questions because it really sucks to have a kid making the right moves athletically and getting foiled by their equipment. Also, many may know which families are looking to unload appropriate-sized gear.

If you don't have a coach available to ask, I'd go by the sizing suggestions in https://cochranskiarea.com/wp-conten...g-and-Tips.pdf, which is a post from the VARA (Vermont Ski Racing) list.

ISO skis/boots/bindings for a 3 1/2 year old. Nordic and/or alpine. Trying to get her sliding on snow for the first time this season. I'm Located in Longmont, CO.

[asland]

New or Used (in good condition)

Who is holding?
Thanks

ISO best first ski setup for 12-18mo old - really just to wear at the neighborhood park and get used to having skis on his feet in snow. Recommendations for outerwear/protective gear welcome, too.

I looked at "Lucky Bums" skis for hard goods, but not sure it's the best choice - anyone have any experience with them?

[~mikey b]

great way to start farting around on skis


but then you’ll want a 65cm ski (some have fish scales) and something like a Nordica Nordy boot


good luck


have fun

SKI THE BABIES !!

Lucky Bums, mittens with the velcro opening backs, cheap snow boots and lotsa marshmallows and gummy bears.
Get a pair of shitty thrift store xc skis/boots so they're doing it like Daddy. NO POLES until they can skate faster than you.

Probably perfect - my only concern is whether those straps are small enough to grab my tiny kid's feet! Think they cinch down enough?

If they don’t work out for you I’d be interested. I’ll follow along.

4 months from now at 22 months? This your first kid--tranquilo mi amigo.
Never worry about passing on gear to another mag if it doesn't work.
