    Gear priorities

    ...so I can get a super duper deal on a new 05 Foes Fly frame. Which I can't afford, even with the super duper deal. BUT I could sell some gear and pay for the frame with that. Big Hit frame, some other assorted gear, and I'd have to sell: my new, in the plastic Spatulas plus new in the box Look P18 bindings. Would you do it???

    the potential prize:

    I'd say thats a sexy bike, worth selling all your worldly things to behold as your own. Does it come set up stock as shown?

    That looks sweet.

    And you only have, what, 18 pairs of fat skis besides those Spats, right?

    In order of replies:

    Big Hit: I have a Big Hit And no it's only a frame, but I have a Shiver and other componentry to swap onto the frame.

    Truth--the Big Hit is rideable, it's a bit beat-up but would serve the season well. And no, selling the Spats would not ruin the ski season ahead (as Altagirl said...I have lots of other fat skis in the quiver). It's just the uniqueness of the Spats that makes me second-guess selling them.

    house: olympia=delicous. I am worried about you, my man.

    and altagirl pretty much had the best point of the thread sounds like eBay will be my friend for the next few weeks...hehe.

    It's like I said, you're not spending lots of money, you're saving lots of money.

    Dude, you're not going to find a better frame at that price. Go for it. By the time you need the Spats, you'll have recovered financially from the Fly.
    Remind me. We'll send him a red cap and a Speedo.
